Life is way too short

A friend of mine may lose her little girl due to - we don't know what - and it breaks my heart.  I got to hold this little girl before she was even 24 hours old, and she is so precious.  That and just a few other things in my life have really gotten me to think how short this life on earth really is.

We only have one chance, one life to make the best of it and to cherish all of the moments around us.  I wish I would have realized that a long time ago.

A few years back I lost sight of what was important.  I lost sight of where my life really needed to be.  I lost sight of what I wanted, and it kills me to know that some things I had may have been lost forever.

How can we love something or someone so much and then push them away?  How can one know that something is so right and then treat it as it was never there?

I let go of one of the most important things in my life a few years back, and now I can't really remember why.  Was it worth it?  No.  Do I regret it?  More than I have ever regretted anything.

You never know what direction your life is going to take, and because of that, you should always hold onto the things that you know are right.  I need to cherish some things in my life a lot more than I have ever cherished anything.

I do not know the outcome, but I do know that I hope with everything that I have that I have not lost it all.  I know where I want to be, and the pathway there makes me nervous as I am sure it is not going to be easy.
