Diary Entry #3

June 25th, 2019

We live in moments of FIRSTS and LASTS.
Today:
Someone took there final breath and at the very same time a baby took their first.
Someone witnessed a sunset for the very first time and another for the last time.
A mother hugs her child for the first time while another holds on to the last.
A love begins and another ends.

We never know when something so special will be our last. It can come at any moment. Let us cling to the things that truly matter. Stop everything you’re doing today and hold onto the moments like they are truly the only moments you’ll ever have.
We only have one breath. That’s it. You may not have the next but if you do, close your eyes for a brief moment and realize it is a gift to you. It’s a gift that many will never have on this earth again but you get to have THIS ONE.
Let us live this day of firsts and lasts with no regrets because one day, someone will remember you based on how you lived them.
“The spirit of God made me and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.”
