I’m gonna try this again.
We never consider that everything has an end. Every thing. When we finally are enlightened to this fact we realize it is too late to appreciate some of the things in our lives that we will never again get to experience.
For example, if you have a child , there are these moments where we carried them across busy parking lots or into church or onto a playground or something of that nature. Then there was that moment. That singular time that was the LAST time. You didn’t know it. You didn’t understand it to be the one. Nobody including your child told you, “Hey, I’m getting kinda big ya know. I’m thinking after this one, I got it. Ok? So no more carrying me.”
Nope. That didn’t go down. So you were unable to appreciate the moment appropriately for what it was. A right of passage, a time of growth, a changing of conditions. It brings about a sentimental type of thought that longs for simpler days and days we wished had never ended. But they did and they do. There is an event in your life right now that occurs with regular frequency but it will not last forever. It’s gonna end. It will. You will not realize it until it is too late. So take nothing for granted. Let those you love know they are loved. Let every small ritual with a loved one become a cherished motion of gratitude that you get to experience one more time. Nothing is promised. Not one thing. Be love. Show love. Be truth. Show truth.
