Life

Is not something to be taken for granted.
So many times we toss around the phrase "I'm gonna kill you." or "My life is so terrible I could just kill myself."
I received a phone call today stating that one of my close friends passed away this afternoon.
She was swimming at a friends house and had an aneurism.
They called 911.
But, it was too late.
She was 17 years old.
She was going into her senior year.
She was going to be flute section leader in her high school band.
She had her whole life ahead of her.
Now it's over.
I write this to you hoping you will take this to heart.
We aren't promised tomorrow.
So make the most of today.
Live life to the fullest.
You never know what day will be your last.
I know I will.
