Love when you can



I learned very sad news about a good friend on Monday. He was vivacious, smart, funny and always made you feel like you were special. I miss him terribly --a friend posted this as her Facebook status, and I echo her sentiment:

"Once again reminded to take the opportunities to tell the people you love what they mean to you and not to put off those lunch dates when possible as you never know if you'll ever be able to reschedule that lunch date again. Life is wonderful, but you never know when it will also be short and fleeting. Hug when you can, laugh when you can, love when you can."

3 love notes:

That’s a beautiful quote, and I do try to live by those principles every day. It’s so easy to get bogged down and frustrated about things that don’t matter, losing perspective of the fact that every day we’re here is a wonderful gift. Thanks for sharing this. I’m so sorry about your friend.
