In the dark, we processed the text

Rene Compton's first book
Have been working with Rene and believe she’s been Heaven sent

 

A friend’s text came through last night as I was lying in bed, casually reading FB updates in the dark.

David’s high school classmate’s 16-year old Son had drown earlier in the day.

I called down the hall to Chapin’s room.

In the dark, we processed the text, and recalled one of Chapin’s best friend’s suddenly losing his Dad a month ago.

It reinforced the point of not missing a day saying, “I love you” (not the first thing a 12-year old embraces).

So glad just a few hours prior I hit the accept button.

Traveled to Glacier National Park (a week ago) with my Family because I wanted them to know, and remember, of all the places on Earth, Glacier is my absolute favorite. I did this deliberately.

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. – Thoreau

Could we come to our deathbed and realize there were a few really important things we never did but should have, could have, or would have, had we known the end time?
