Some thoughts

This probably has nothing to do with writing at all - or maybe everything to do with it, depending on your point of view. How's that for ambiguity?
A dear friend of mine died a few days ago. She touched many people and she lived her life as she chose. She will be missed for the love she gave and the joy she spread. I am so grateful she was in my life.
Her passing is causing me to re-evaluate and prioritize. Our time on this earth is short.
If you have a dream or a goal, go for it. If you have always said "some day I will give back", do it now. Some day is here.
None of us knows what tomorrow will bring or if tomorrow will even come. Look at the daily newspaper if you doubt that.
Be in the present moment and make the present moment count for all its worth. Reach out to those around you.
Each of us has a gift to share.
