A friend of mine just recently lost her new husband to cancer. It was a long fight, and they did everything they could for him. Unfortunately it wasn't enough and he wasn't strong enough to fight anymore. This saddens me on many levels. I wasn't great friends with him but we spent time together and Jon has known him since elementary school. Oh, and he was only 24. The one thing I hope to take from this is that you cannot take your life for granted. Sure there are going to be things you have to do to that you don't like, but just know everyday is a precious gift. We are given so much and so often we forget how lucky we truly are. All I want to say is that enjoy your life, your loved ones, and the gift that has been given to you. Really, truly, LIVE. That is my inspiration today. Take it with you.
