just a few thoughts

So something happened and well its too hard to explain in part because i dont even know myself whats going on. At any rate it got me thinking and posing the question to you when was the last time you watched a sunset? when was the last time you stopped to listen to the birds? when was the last time you laughed with friends until you cried? When was the last time you smelled flowers? I can tell you I havent done those things in awhile.
Here is my point. We live in a world full of sensory overload. It is go go go until you cant go. We take the time to call people we text them. Some of spend our day fiddling around on facebook, linkden, myspace, twitter skype and the list could go on and on and on.
Here is reality the fact that most of can use our senses is a gift. The fact that most of us have friends we can skype, or Im with is a gift. Yet you dont understand how important it is to enjoy these people and the things around us until we lose it. People are really hurting, and the beauty of god's creation is passing us by.

My challenge to you (and myself) is to tell someone you love them, laugh till it hurts, and enjoy all that is around you. You never know when it could be gone.
