Today I watched a heart wrenching Oprah show where she had two guests that were diagnosed with terminal cancer. The weird thing is that even though they were told they didn't have much longer to live, these people were so full of life. I am a very emotional person, so as you can probably imagine I practically sobbed through the whole show. I cried not only for what these people were going through but for the fact that here I am totally healthy(at least I hope I am) and I'm not completely living my life. Don't get me wrong I am completely grateful for everything I have and accomplished. I have a wonderful family, one could not ask for a better one but I know that I have more to offer this world than going to work and coming home. I just have to figure that out.
My reason for writing this blog entry is just to get out there to people that tomorrow isn't promised to us. When that time comes for God to take us away let's not have any regrets. Because then it's too late for the shoulda's, coulda's, and woulda's. If you want to take your children to Disney World go ahead and make those reservations. If there's someone that you feel has done you wrong, pray to God and let him know that you forgive that person. Clear your heart of hatred it takes too much to hate people.
I have an Aunt who lost half of her leg because of diabetes and seeing her the other day made me realize how we take things for granted and that I should be thankful for everything I have from the hair on my head to the tips of my toes.
So I'm gonna end this blog and every other one here on after with something I'm grateful for, and if anyone else leaves a comment at the end please leave something your grateful for as well.
Grateful: I am grateful to have a mother and a father who love me unconditionally and who support me in any decision that I make.

You're right, I believe that everyone have allot to offer this world. The problem is that we seldom think about what that something is or neither do we figure out what that something is. We need to take a step back sometime and look at life. decide what it is that we want to do and stay committed to it. Because like you said tomorrow is not promised to us. I look forward to reading more of your blogs
