Last Chance!

Today I received a email from a friend with a lovely poem... I just thought I'd share it with you, because it touched my heart and just maybe it will touch yours too!

If I knew this was the last time that I'd see you fall asleep, I would've done more to cover you warmer at night.

If I knew it would be the last time that I saw you leaving out that door, I would've given you a hug and a kiss and called you back for just one more hug.

If I knew it would be the last time that I'd hear your voice, I'd have recorded it on a tape recorder and played it over and over again.

We live as if there is still a lot of time to do all the things we really want to do. 

But Today was Really Your Last Chance!

I know we don't want to think of it as our last chance, but we never really know what tomorrow holds for us!

I know I've been planning my life ahead these past few months, but after this I know now to do what I want today! I might not have tomorrow...

My real mother passed away 2 years ago, and I still have so much I needed to say to her. But I never got that chance! As I stood there at her funeral, all the doubt and pain I had in me just vanished. I knew all the questions I had for her, will stay unanswered forever! But what hurt me the most, was the fact that I couldn't tell her how proud I was that she was my mother and that I forgave her for giving me up for adoption... And that I loved her!!

So today, I will tell everybody in my life what they mean to me!! I'm Blessed to have been able to wake up this morning, I'm Blessed to have Friends and Family.

So To Who Ever is reading this post, Thank You!!

XoXo
