When I was a little boy, I can remember my mother frequently saying,
“Give me roses while I’m living.”
As I get older. I have appreciated and cherished her words even more. It can be our family, close friends, coworkers or even total strangers but everyone needs to know that they are loved and appreciated.
We often wait until that person has passed and tell others how much we loved and appreciated them.
We are all very busy in our everyday lives and think we’ll tell them when they’re older or maybe even on their on their death bed.
But what if we don’t ever see them again or never get to tell them?
I challenge each one of you to pick up the phone, text or write telling them how much you love and appreciate them.
You won’t regret it!
FEELING GRATITUDE AND NOT EXPRESSING IT IS LIKE WRAPPING A PRESENT AND NOT GIVING IT! -William Ward
