it just takes one moment...

The other night I was feeling sorry for myself and said out loud "I hate my life".

The next day I realized, I don't hate my life, I just need to change my attitude about a few things and the rest will fall into space.

One of my dear friends is having a health scare. It still amazes me that one day our life is somewhat perfect and then the next it's completely changed. I need to stop and look at my life every day, be thankful for what I have, not wishing I had more. Because it just takes one second and life as you know it can be drastically different. If I have learned anything in the past 3 years is that very bad things do happen to me, to people I know, to people I love.

I will remember to stop, look around, savor what is right in front of me and be thankful that I had the ability to enjoy and appreciate when I had it.
