Life is short, people die, bad things happen. I learned about a friend's death this week. It was very unexpected and tragic. It is a reminder of anything can happen especially the unexpected.
You can't live in the past or dream of the future because then you miss the present.
I would miss how Leland changes every day. How wonderful he can be. I miss the random moments I find him quietly reading books or playing with his animal figurines. The sound of him waking of from a nap and running out to the living room.
I don't know what will happen tomorrow. I want to know I lived life. I enjoyed it and relished in the small moments.
Live in the present.
Beautifully put! I wrote about this a few days back after I heard about a tragic accident- you need to live each day to the fullest!
