Hug Them!

Saturday evening my good friend and next door neighbor of 24 years, lost her husband unexpectedly! They are such an amazing couple! They did a lot together! She asked me and my husband, "What am I going to do without my rock, my soulmate, my best friend?" Her question has haunted me for the past several days. I keep hearing it over and over in my mind.

They are about the same age as me and my husband, so this has really been a bit too close to home for me. What would I do if I lost my husband today? How would I cope? I fear I have been taking him and our relationship for granted. Who knows how long we have left together in this life?

So, my message this week is....hug them! Hug your spouse, your kids, your grandkids as soon as you can! If they live far away, call them, send them a text, or better yet, write them a note and mail it to them! Let them know how much they mean to you.

None of us know how long we have, so let's make sure our loved ones know we love them! Life gets busy and we forget the little things that mean the most.

Now, go hug someone you love.....
