This past Saturday started out just like any other Saturday. The sun was shining bright, the temperature was just right- 70+ and breezy, and the sky look absolutely breath taking- as if it had opened up and God was peering right down on us.
My husband left for his flag football game. I finished laundry, walk my dog Cooper, and spent some time playing with my 2 year old niece.
And then......my husband called. He told me that before his flag football game started, one of the players collapsed on the field. En route to the hospital, he died. He was in his 30's.
I was shocked! My husband couldn't get home fast enough to hug and kiss me and tell me how much he loved me. And I couldn't wait to hold onto him as tight as I could-never letting him go!
So, this was definitely a "wake-up call" while on this journey to 30. I've prayed all week for the skills needed to live a better and most productive life possible. I've prayed to be less judgmental and less self-centered. I've prayed to be more compassionate and more appreciative. I've prayed for LIFE! Because we never know when it's over.
