Pause For Thought

[MajestyJo]

Sometimes we come across a sentence in a book or hear a comment which halts us in our tracks because it's so true. I had this feeling when I was reading Arthur Hailey's novel about life in a great hotel. One of the guests, an elderly widower, tells a young couple who are much in love with each other: "You never know how much you share with someone till the sharing ends. So grab on to every minute there is. Don't waste any time. You never get it back."

That advice says everything, doesn't it?

Old friends are like old slippers -
You're always glad they're there,
So easy on life's "bunions",
So comforable to wear!

- Anne Kreer

This reminds me it is one day at a time. This too shall pass, be it good or the not so good things in our life. Live each day to it's fullest. We are given a second chance at life, enjoy it, be grateful and show it.
