Love the Ones You're With

Hold the ones you love very close to you! A woman from work lost her husband yesterday very unexpectedly. As we gathered this morning to hear the news it just broke my heart for her, her 3 children and their family and friends.

That along with the early and very dangerous flu season---I am reminded to tell everyone I know that I love them. Give that special person in your life an extra squeeze today! I am thankful for all the wonderful people in my life--please know you are loved!

A few lines from a song that reminds me to approach each day as a gift because you don't know what tomorrow will bring.
The song Bless.ed by Bre.tt Denne.n

I welcome the sun,
the clouds and rain,
the wind that sweeps the sky clean
and lets the sun shine again.
this is the most magnificent life has ever been.
here is heaven and earth
and the brilliant sky in between.
blessed is this life
and I'm gonna celebrate being alive.
blessed is this life
and I'm gonna celebrate being alive
