I just got home from viewing a friend on his way to final rest.

Life really is too short. Enjoy life and treat each other the way you would want to be treated, even when the bad times come around because we are only here for a very short time.

Peace be with you my friend

I am sorry to hear about your lost.

I send your spirit a hug...hug .

Life is too short...I did not realize that until I lost 3 loved ones in the last 5 yrs.

When the first one passed away, it was then that I was able to look at life and realize, that what we have planned for tomorrow may not happen, because tomorrow is not gauranteed...but hope is.

I have always made it a point to express how I feel, even in difficult times I can say the word "love", and had no regrets about something being left unsaid.

But you are right, treat others the way you want to be treated, even in the bad times come around.

We never know...if we or one of our loved ones will still be here.

I hope peace be with you.

Sincerely, Angel

Mike1162, My heart goes out to you my dear friend. 39 months
ago my husband and I walked into our home and he had a
massive heart attack right in front of me. He was gone in
a matter of seconds. So very true. Live each day as though
it were your last. Never let the sun go down on an angry
word. Never let a loved one walk out the door without saying
have a nice day, I love you and giving them a kiss.

Thanks everyone. My loss of a friend is nothing compared to the loss of his wife, his children, his family.

Treat everyone as you would want to be treated because we may not be here tomorrow.

Peace! sigh

May you be blessed me2uflowers.

Your story about the fishing trip and your grandchildren truly touched my heart...I never forgot it.

You are right also, never let a love one go out the door without saying goodbye, giving a kiss, saying I love you.

I did all that for my son all the time...yet he was always in a rush, I would almost have to chase him down to kiss him, lol.

But how I wish, that the last day I had him in a hug, I would have felt his warmth just a little longer, give him a few more of Mama's unwanted kisses, lol...and be able to look into his eyes one last time.

I think that when we have someone with a terminal illness, we are preparing ourselves for months saying goodbye a little at a time,
but when a life is suddenly taken, a part of us is too.

I still set a place at the dinner table for my son on thanksgiving, it has been a litlle over two yrs, people think I am crazy...I know he is not here physically, but the shine he reflected is still with me, and that is all that matters, he is gone but not forgotten.

I hope your pain eases, I can empathize with you..may you have many blessings to comfort your heart.

....angel ....
