INEVITABLE ENDINGS...

We were gone last week because of a death in our family - something that we all face in our lifetimes.  



There are many ways to deal with loss and it is something that all humans struggle with... we want to approach this state with dignity and grace... 

some days we succeed more so than others...  

We would like to share one of our favorite quotes about death:

"An awareness and understanding of death raises our state of life.  When we are cognizant of the reality and inevitability of death we begin to seek the eternal, and become determined to make the most valuable use of each moment of life."

A MOMENT IN TIME…

Once upon a time a woman was on her way to work and BOOM! 
Someone ran a red light and took off the front of her car.

WHOA!
The first thing that went through her mind with that intense impact was:

"OMG I had that awful fight with my brother last night and if I die now that moment will stay  with him forever…"



Needless to say it was a major wake-up call about living each day as it if just might be the last…



This past week we learned of two deaths that occurred almost simultaneously - one of a woman reaching the 100 year old mark and another of an 18 year old boy…

And then the shocking loss of 8 lives in the Amtrak train crash on Tuesday May 12.

What do ya say?

What does living each day as if it could be your last mean for you?
