Recently I’ve ran to some pretty serious health issues. During my stay at my local hospital I had a lot of time to think. Being on food restriction and only allowed to drink water and eat ice provided ample time to use perspective. I thought of my wife and how even tho I was dealing with some health complications life goes on. She still had to cook for our children and prepare them for school. I was still in a hospital bed while the world continue to progress without my cause and effect. It made me realize that priorities should be taken seriously during the struggle and the high times. It feels good to provide for your family but what good are you if you work yourself self into sickness. Time is something you can’t get back so you have to create memories for your family to remember. Pictures are great but what do you enjoy most looking at a still photo or a reminiscing on a real life experience. Think about seeing your friend’s pictures from a concert you were supposed to go to compared to being there and taking those pictures together. In today’s society prices and the feeling of responsibility can have you working unimaginable hours just to make sure your family is ok. I’ve been there and still go visit sometimes but not often. All the things you can purchase houses , cars, jewelry will mean nothing in 100 years many people may not even remember you in 100 years so all we have is now….. not 10 mins ago, or 10 mins in the future. Let’s take advantage of the now to create that beautiful later… you are replaceable to your job, your church, running club… etc… you are not replaceable you your family you are 1 of 1 remember there is no mold for you….

Stay blessed
