Utilize every moment...

If knew that you would die tomorrow, what would you do in those last hours before your death? Would you eat all the food you could cram in your stomach? Would you go to the bar and try to drink away your fear of death? Or would you possibly go to everyone you "care" about and tell them that you love them and that you are sorry for things you have done to them that are not right? There are many variations of answers that people would answer with, but my answer to this question would for sure be that I would go to the people I care about and express my love and make right with them. The only problem with me taking this approach is that I may not have the chance to tell these things to the people I truly care about because we live in a world where tomorrow isn't promised and every second we are alive is a gift from God.

Because the next second of our lives is not guaranteed, we really need to be careful to always treat people with love and to make things right that need to be made right. This is harder than it sounds because sometimes our priorities get mixed up and we put the important things to the side (love, family, God,friends, etc.). I know that for me, this is a constant struggle because I lose sight of the important things in life and focus on the things that really don't matter in the end. For me, the two things I really need to pay more attention to is God and my family. What about for you?

We only get to live life once, so lets utilize every moment we are blessed with.
