You are a Keeper

One day a woman's husband died, and on that clear, cold
morning, in the warmth of their bedroom, the wife was
struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't
"anymore".... No more hugs, no more special moments to
celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no
more "just one minute."

Sometimes, what we careabout the most gets all used
up and goes away, never to returnbefore we can say,
"Good-bye", or say, "I love you."

So while we have it, it's best we love it, care for it, fix it when
it's broken and heal it when it's sick. This is true for marriage
.....and old cars... andchildren with bad report cards, and dogs
with bad hips, and aging parents and grandparents. We keep
them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.
Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away
or a sister-in-law after divorce. There are just some things
that make us happy, no matter what.

Life is important, like people we know who are special.
And so, we keep them close! I received this from someone
who thought I was a 'keeper'! Then I sent it to the people
I think of in the same way...

Now it's your turn to send this to all those people who are
"keepers" in your life, including the person who sent it, if
you feel that way.

Suppose one morning you never wake up -- do all your
friends know you love them? I was thinking...I could die
today, tomorrow or next week, and I wondered if I had
any wounds needing to be healed, friendships that needed
rekindling or three words needing to be said. Let every
one of your friends know you love them. Even if you think
they don't love you back, you would be amazed at what
those three little words and a smile can do. And just in
case I'm gone tomorrow.

I love ya!!!

Live today because tomorrow is not promised.
