Love the One Your With!

When you leave the house in the morning make sure that you tell your loved ones how you feel. I recently had a friend pass away in a car crash. He was a great guy who was married to a wonderful woman. At the funeral we found out that he tended to go to bed early. The night before he passed he did just that, headed to bed early. His wife wrote him a note that night telling him how much she loved him, how proud she was of him, and what a wonderful dad he was. She left it out for him to find in the morning. He read the note that fateful morning and it was in the car with him when he passed away.

Yes your spouse and kids may drive you batty from time to time, but please try and think about your family before you go to bed angry or leave the house with harsh words. Many many times they are not going to be the last you have with those people, but for a few it will. And you or they are going to have that as the last memory of that relationship.

How much better does my friend have it knowing that her husband read her loving words and was probably still brimming with pride and love as he drove down the highway that morning. Remember the good times and let the bad slip on by cause life is short and what good is staying mad going to do anyone? Kiss your loved ones, hug your loved ones, tell them you love them, and over look their faults, after all they are YOUR loved ones, and we only get one shot at this rodeo called life and there is no guarantee just how long we've got.
