It was two weeks ago today that my father in law took a sudden and unexpected turn for the worst, that left him passing away five days ago. Watching his decline was an eye opener for the entire family, but it hit truly hard for my husband and I. We looked back and talked about our regrets- which there were not many of. My biggest one was living up in Tundra Country for so long, when life in the south has been so much better. We jointly decided that yes indeed life is much too short to sit idle and watch the world go by. We promised each other that when we grew old there would be no sitting there, wishing we had done things differently. Instead, we were going to seize each and every single day and live it to the fullest- as if it might be our last. Because as we learned from watching his father- it might just well BE our last.
