What are you waiting for?

[Mama Bear]

I have been thinking a lot the past few days about my life. I’m over 40 it’s natural. It’s not like I’m going to live forever. Not on this messed up planet! I’ve thought about all the waiting we do in our lives. We wait to learn to drive, we wait to date, get married, have sex unfortunately not always in that order. I’ve been thinking if I were told tomorrow that I had a year, a month or a week to life, what would I do differently? Is there someone who needs to know I love them? Does someone need encouragement? Forgiveness? A friendly kick in the pants? Carpe diem! We won’t live forever after all. I want to live every day as if it were my last. Sorry if this got too serious, but I think about these things. So... what are you waiting for?

Nice to meet you Jonathan Edwards. He said something like that 250 years ago.

Love this. We need to live every day like it's our last.

Hmmm, I need to get out more.
LOL

Me too, I thought "I" thought of a deep thought all on my own I should've known better.

There is nothing new under the sun, just fresh expressions of very good old thoughts.

And that was extremely well expressed, Mama Bear so thank you for writing that.

I'll be 40 a month from today. So it's Over The Hill For Me!

I enjoy this age because my kids are little older now and I have more time for other stuff. I'm learning how to do watercolors and it's a lot of fun and it relieves stress.

I too live like this day could be my last so that's good advice.

If I'd lived each day as if it were my last, I would have been expelled from Fundy High. And looking back, I wish I had!
