Life is too short....

May 04, 2009

Last night my little cousin died in a car accident.  She was only 23yrs old.  5yrs younger than me.  She was so beautiful, smile that could melt the coldest of hearts.  Her personality lit up rooms when she walked in. The last time I saw her was last year.  She lived 30 minutes from me.  Family is the only thing you have when all the chips are down, when the wheels stop spinning, the money runs out and your love packs their bags and moves on from your life.  Family is who will always be there, even when you step on their heads to climb your way to the top.
I tend to take things for granted and never realizing the blessing it is to have friends and family in my life.  Those who love me despite all my faults, ups and downs, and my constant need to be free of them.  I took my friendships for granted, my health for granted and my youth for granted.  No day is promised and I'm so grateful for being able to tell my friends and family how much they truly mean to me. If you are reading this, I pray that you do the same.  Make amends with those in your life that are on the fritz. Appreciate the blessings no matter how small.  Recognise the beauty in yourself because this is the person most likely to be left out.
And if you can please keep me and my family in your prayers. 
I love you Meka.  I was truly blessed to have you in my life for the last 23 yrs.
