Hello all! I hope you enjoyed your weekend and are ready to take
on a new week! The weekend went by too fast for us
and as usual, I find myself wondering how time passes by so fast?
This weekend we attended the funeral of a friend whose passing
was unexpected. It was difficult to witness the pain and sorrow family
members felt as we know they didn’t have the chance to say goodbye.
Death has a way of putting things into perspective.
You quickly realize there are many things that should be said
daily – with every sunrise, every sunset, and the hours in between.
We are all on borrowed time as the future is not ours. Yet the
present allows us to be precisely that – present.
We should love deeply and live fully. Say what we have to say
today, in the now. Life is simple and yet we have a remarkable
tendency to make it complicated by caring for things at the end of
the day that really don’t matter. What matters are the relationships
with those you love and the legacy you will one day leave behind.
Do you remember the pretty wild flower arrangement?
Once the wild flowers had their time, I kept the beautiful hydrangeas on their own.
Pretty – yet simple – sitting alone in the little burlap vase.
Just trying to keep it simple.

Hi Lucy,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will be praying for you and all who knew them. Your simple fall vase inspires me…just so lovely…but then everything here always is.
May God give you all peace and comfort.
Hugs,
Becky

We all need to appreciate our life nowadays because every day can be a last one…. Besides, I also believe that it’s quite important to prepare everything in advance, for example with these Newrest Funeral Directors or someone else on the internet as well. Just please be cautious and check some comments.
