Life is too Short

Life is way too short to be unhappy. You live longer once you realize that any time spent unhappy is wasted. I got some bad news last week.  My uncle past away on Monday from a massive heart attack. He was only 59. It made me take a step back and think about all the things in my life that I take for granted and all the things in my life that I have put on hold because I have been too busy to get to them. I can’t stress enough that you only get one life to live and to make sure that you live to the fullest. One of my favorite quotes by Abraham Lincoln reads, “and in the end, it not the years in your life that count. It is the life in your years.”  You never know when your time will be up. You have to life for today not yesterday nor tomorrow. You never want to have to “what if”. Follow your dreams and make sure that you tell the ones that you love just how you feel about them. Never be afraid to show someone how you feel because you might not get the chance later. I have made a vow to never go to bed without saying I love you to my daughter and giving her a kiss goodnight. I always say I love you to my family when I get off the phone with them. We are all very close and I never what them to doubt the way I feel. Turning 30 this year has been a big change for me. I am not getting any younger and I want to make sure that I have no regrets when my time is up. I have dreams to fulfill, adventures to go on, and many memories to make.
