Life is Too Short

Life is too short.  Life is just too short when I think about it.  I read someplace a quote that has stuck with me.  Life is too short not to stop and watch the world go by sometimes.  I wish I had come up with that one and I can’t even give credit to who did at this point but suffice it to say it has stuck with me for awhile.

Life is too short when I think about all of the things that I want to accomplish.  I want to write an actual book.  I want to see my boys be happily married and have children of their own.  I want to have “Grandma Camp” like Jane Testerman always did with her gang of grandchildren.  I want to go to Africa.  I want to make a difference in this world.  I don’t necessarily want to amass wealth and riches but I want to be able to be generous with what we have been blessed with.  I want to have more friends than I have now.  I want to be a part of a really dynamic outreach.  I want to read all of the books that I have on my Kindle and many more.

I want to stop and watch the world go by.  I want to experience it.  I want to be immersed in it.  I want to be totally in love with the experience and the journey that I am on.  I want to love without boundaries and limitations.  I want to collect memories in my heart that will carry me through the tough times.

Life is so short.  I want to cherish each day.  I want to live it to the fullest.  I want to love.  I want to slow down and let life happen to me and around me.

What about you?  Do you think life is too short or are you tired of life at this point?

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
