I went to my sisters memorial service yesterday. I learned a couple of things. First is life is fleetingly short. We can look back at all that we’ve accomplished, all we have yet to do and there is just never enough time. The second thing is that we tend to take our loved ones for granted. I always just figured that my sisters would always be out there… somewhere. Living and enjoying their life. But I took them all for granted and their lives moved on and in some cases, ended. No one calls me, I call no one, we all just go through life with tunnel vision, interested in our own little happenings. We have no clue what’s going on in our extended family…
I’m breaking that cycle.
