Life IS short. It's too short. I'm reminded of it too often. Or maybe not often enough. My brother's best friend died yesterday. On New Year's Day. He'd been sick for a while and was ready to go, though his wife and little girl weren't ready to let him go. Their time together had been too short. But it was all they got. All they had. All they'll ever have.
I want my time to be full of things I love... of things I create... of people who mean the world to me and to whom I mean the world...
Life. It's short. Make it count.

Life is short. Making it count is probably the best resolution anyone can have.

Well put, Diane. It seems too short for everyone, so we need to keep that in mind whenever we're with our loved ones.
Thanks.
