Do It Now

Monday through Friday I work with terminally ill patients and their families. I witness husbands, wives, children, grandchildren saying good bye to someone they love. Broken hearts, tears flowing, final words whispered to that special person, all these things serve as reminders to do it now. Don't put expressing your appreciation, love and grattitude for those who you love. Do it now. Tell your husband you love him, you appreciate how hard he works, and thanks for making the morning coffee. Tell your parents you love them, even if they have never said it to you. Write your awkward middle school son or daughter a note telling them they're cool and you love 'em.
Do it now, 'cause they might not be around as long as you think they will.
