Count Your Blessings

Just a reminder about how fleeting life is. I hope you live every day to the fullest, experience everything beautiful, and love with all your heart.

Our friends/neighbors were on a chartered bus heading for Laughlin to celebrate a birthday. In an instant they went from dancing in the aisles to peeling friends off the pavement and out of the wreckage when the bus overturned en route. One passenger perished and 20+ others were moderately to critically injured. I can't even imagine the gruesome and horrific scene - like a very bad movie. Our friends were among the lucky ones escaping with a separated clavicle and broken vertabrae.

It's important to tell the people you care about how much they mean to you. And don't for an instant take life for granted; t's precious and short. We are all blessed in so many ways even during times of suffering.
