Life is Truly Short - 09/19/23 03:34 AM

Stark reminder to never take life for granted.
Got a call from a middle school friend that his wife passed in her sleep. We had a big blowup some years back and haven't spoken since my mom passed. We are both too stubborn to let it go, but, i will head his way to be with him. We have been like brothers through broken relationships and my best man and i his when we both decided not to be bachelors any longer. Will try to be there for him and leave the past behind us.

Also, i have not said much to anyone about what i'm about to say.
My daughter is battling stage four cancer. I've been holding it in to be strong for my wife and daughter. But this old sarge hurting in so many ways. She is strong, but, i know and feel what the outcome will be. My wife's health is already iffy. They are my world.
So, maybe this is God's way of saying i need to mend some broken fences.
Felt like i needed to say this.

So, what i'm saying is. Don't wait to tell the people you care about how much they mean to you.
Thanks for your time.

Praying for your family

The message about mending things is something everyone needs to hear from time to time. Whether they are on the outs with anyone at the present time or not

Really makes you realize that the stuff we get mad about doesnt mean a thing. It’s so easy to forget that. I do frequently. I hope everything works out sir.
