We have all lost people way too soon. But take a moment and look at your life. I see so many in bad situations that stay there because they feel it is the right thing to do. Living with unkind people that barely tolerate their existence. I took the leap, and gained my freedom. It scared the heck out of me, it challenged my family unit, and after the dust settled, I find I am happier now than I can remember being. I will have no regrets when I leave this planet, I am doing the best I can with what I have to work with. I am selfish! I am looking out for number one. How dare I be so cold and mean! But ya know what? I now have the energy to help way more people than I hurt making this decision, I am open to new ideas, to avenues of giving and I can show kindness to who ever I want with out judgment.
I lost my dad too soon, but he never wasted a day. I am sorry he was sick, but that dude lived life! My mom had an accident and now has dementia brought on by a brain injury. She lost her dream of travel after retirement. She is set up financially to go and do what ever she wanted, she built her dream and then simply fell and hit her head. Now she lives a gentle life, but nothing like what she planned for.
So no, you just never know. I don't believe in getting into debt, if I can't afford it, I don't do it. I will work for what ever I want, and not be a burden to anyone if I can help it. But I try to live every day in excitement and awe of how amazing this world is. I really think that is what Christ wants for us.
