My friend texted me yesterday that she needed prayers. Her husband had a seizure and they needed a miracle. I was finally able to talk with her this afternoon about what happened. When he seized, he fell and his head hit the cement driveway. His brain has swelled to the point where there is now no brain wave activity.
I have been praying for him. For her. For the whole family.
This accident reminds us about how life sometimes changes suddenly and drastically. Tim had his share of demons to wrestle. When he was good, he was very very good. But when he was bad, he was terrible. However, the tragedy of someone in his 40’s suddenly cut off from talking to his family and the family’s subsequent unexpected loss is devastating.
Today, this weekend, this year … take a few moments to tell the people you love the most how much they mean to you. Take the time to give a hug. Hold hands. Bring someone a cup of coffee or chocolate milk. Make some toast and share it. Or make a cake to celebrate nothing in particular, but everything good in the world.
We have but one life to make the most of and how many of us really capture every moment that we can to create happy memories?
