Life Can Change In An Instant

Disclaimer: I do NOT mean for this post to be depressing.

Over the past weekend, there were three separate incidents of people passing away too soon. The father of a young son overdosed. A dear childhood friend committed suicide. Another friend caught at the intersection of a random shooting in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I didn't personally know them, but people close to me did. I hate seeing and hearing people I care about be sad and I want to wrap my arms around each one of them. While usually I would absorb this sadness and be sad myself, that wasn't the case this weekend. It's like I felt the sad from my friends, but then it lifted my head to see how lucky I am. My Husband. My Mary. I love my family. I love my life. I wake up every morning happy to be living it.

Life can change in an instant. Live it, Enjoy it and enjoy everyone that is in it.
