After Stephen died I realized how important time was. Time you spend with your loved ones should not be taken for granted. I spent the evening with my friend Zack
and his fiance Saturday night for his birthday and I was thinking how nice it was to hang out with them and why I don't do it more often. Then I started thinking about all the people in my life that I love and care about and how I don't really see any of them much any more and what would I do if they were not there any more. I have spent 5 months wishing that I had more time with Stephen, wishing that I had done more with him, I got so wrapped up in that, that I forgot about the rest of the people in my life.I spend time with D and Sean as often as I can but what about the other people that were there for me,and have always been there? Recently I got the chance to spend some online time with some long time friends and I started thinking when was the last time I hung out with Jordan? When did I see Theresa last, face to face?When was the last time I had lunch with Jess or Dina?When was the last time I saw Laura or my Mom? When did I see my Dad last? How sad it was that I could not remember. I would be devasted if I lost any one of my friends or family and yet I don't take the precious time to go see them. My deepest apologies to all of you. I will make the effort to get out of my own sorrow long enough to spend TIME with the people I love so much.
