Sometimes I get to thinking that I've waited too long to even try to be fully alive. For example, I will profusely thank the rare store clerk who cards me. And seemingly overnight, my hair has become liberally sprinkled with silver. Let's face it, friends, I cannot be considered young by anyone's standards. After all, I have raised an incredible son who is approaching 40. He has become a wonderful father to my grandchildren. Yes, I said grandchildren. You don't get to have those and continue to be 23. (And I would choose grandchildren any day.)
Anyway, the thought of wasted years, blind years, the years I gave away sometimes plagues me. So today I reminded myself that I have a valuable gift in the next 24 hours. Now that I am awake, I have choices. I get to choose how I live.
And so do you, precious ones. This is your time. You have everything you need to live today fully alive. And even if no one else believes in you, I do! And I love you. Bunches.
