Life is a vapor

Indeed, life is a vapor. In the past few days, one friend died suddenly with heart failure, and another friend got a notice that she has a cancer and she may not live more than a month. They both are pretty young (in their 60’s) and they were planning to do many things after their retirement. What a good reminder for me to live my life TODAY with the purpose. Each day is a gift and I need to use it to be counted.

Kim, I'm so sorry for your loss. Your words ring true, and I do my best every day to enjoy what I can. Thank you for sharing your loss as a reminder of what is really important.

Thanks, Jeff. Do you have a blog or Facebook account?

I do. I'll send you a FB invite. My blog is the one that I created for class (and have been really bad about updating since...maybe I should now that you're keeping an eye on me!)
