Do you, like myself, always feel like you are rushing all day? Get up, rush to get ready, rush to get the kids ready, rush to get them to school, rush to work, RUSH RUSH RUSH! I am so tired of rushing everywhere and anywhere! 4 years ago today my cousin, Dana, died of cancer and I know how fast that cancer rushed her life. As soon as she found out that she had cancer it seemed like she passed away within weeks. I know Dana would not be rushing, she would have slowed down and enjoyed all the little things in life. After today, no more rushing! I will stop and watch my kids draw a picture, let them read to me, let there be time for whatever they need me for! The laundry, housework, magazines, TV will all be there tomorrow, but will our kids?
In October 2004, a year exactly before Dana found out she had cancer, we were on a cruise with some of the women in our family. We had a blast! I still am in denial sometimes that she has passed. I feel so truly blessed to have gotten to spend that week with her, since we were the youngest of the bunch. (: Make sure that you don't rush, take the time and LIVE!
