I haven’t been giving this blog very much attention lately. My mother-in-law, Adele Metz, who I loved dearly passed away last week. Her death came as a bit of a shock to the family. Last year, at this time she seemed healthy. By Christmas, she felt that something was wrong. In January she was diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer and less than four months later she was gone.
There is a point to this post and it’s not to elicit sympathy. It’s simply this. None of us know how long we have, so it only makes sense to live life to the fullest. Take each day as a gift. Stop putting off calling your old friends, spend more time with your kids and take that vacation that you always wanted. There’s no point in leaving anything undone, because as far as we know, you only go around once in this world.
Tomorrow is promised to no one, but today is all yours. Make the most of it.
