THOUGHT PROVOKING

I have been thinking a lot lately about time.  Something seemed to happen to me when I had my 60th Birthday in August. I have started to think about how much time I might have, or not have, whatever the case may be.  This has not been helped by my husband's best friend being near death at 65 years old.

I am not afraid of death because I know where I am going and it is a far better place than here.  But I love my life here in Devon and want more time to enjoy it along with my grandchildren and great grand-daughter.

I cannot emphasise how important it is to make the most of time.  It is not only older people who die either, so thinking we have lots of time because we are younger is not necessarily true.

Tell someone today how much you love them.  Write to someone you may have lost touch with  and connect again.  Make the most of friends and family so that when you are gone they have good memories to carry them through.

Today my thoughts have been towards someone I am estranged from and who means a lot to me but nothing can bridge the chasm that has been made.  God is all powerful but everyone has free will and He will not go against that.

We had a special 3 week holiday in Spain this year, it was a special holiday to celebrate our 40th anniversary and our retirement.  It was very special and has left me with lovely memories.  Make memories while you can you will be glad of them someday.
