This Ain't the Movies, Folks.

Life is shorter than we imagine.  It is brilliant and bright.  And then, it is black.  No special effects or ominous movie music give us a warning of what is to come.  Power failure that one can't imagine.  As final as the chop of a guillotine.

Perhaps, you've heard the news of a friend who lost a loved one.  It gives you a quick reminder to love, really love those in your world.  So, do it.  Say what you need to say.  Say it.  Don't hesitate.  Share time and life with them.  Cut out the distractions.  There is no promise of another chance to experience their presence, their laughter, their words.

Work out your differences.  Or agree to to disagree.  But, let not one thing keep you separated from love.

Go where you want to go.  Say everything that you want to say.  Do everything you want to do.

Don't play it safe.  Play big.  Play until you can't breathe.

It's what I'm trying to do and why I am doing what may cause some to think I'm brave or crazy....depending on your perspective.

Oh.....remember we don't get to say when it's quittin' time.
