Cherish Now

I'm stunned. Another fellow school parent died last night. That's two this week, three this year. Two heart attacks, one car accident. These are all people close to my age, with kids who still desperately need a parent. They must still need a parent, I know I do. Another wake-up call to remember that every day matters, to live for now not later, cherish the treasures in my life, and to re-read the famous "wear sunscreen" speech.
