Give the gift of time, it wont cost you a dime! Give the most precious gift of all, give your time to another. Tonight I did some serious reflecting on my life. I would not be the person I am today if it were not for my amazing parents. Although my Dad passed away in 2008, I still reach for the phone to call him. Funny how the luxury of being able to just pick up the phone and call him, was something I seriously took for granted. My Mom is still here and I cherish every phone call now. I embrace every single moment we spend together, and I intentionally make time for her. I have failed her in a lot of ways and am thankful that I still have time with her. I would give anything to just have one more conversation with my Dad. I know in my heart we have not had our last! Some day hopefully down the road quite a bit, we will meet again and heaven and catch up. But the longing to hear his voice on the other end of the phone, just once more will never stop. Regret is a hard thing to deal with and simply being too busy will breed it. Our priorities in todays society are very off! Our careers, status, money, is put before our family. Sometimes when you are at your lowest, family is all you have. Dont take those who are always there for you for granted, someday you could find yourself regretting hoarding your time. Dont be a hoarder of your time, give it away freely! My prayer today is that no one feel the sting of regret after their loved one is gone. My prayer is that we stop and we heed the voice within, telling us to slow down. I pray we all love our families enough to slow down. listen carefully, and give the gift of time. Our parents guide us through life, they help us up when we fall, they listen to our pain, and they do all they can to make everything better. We need to always remember those who got us where we are now and cherish the priceless moments that we still have with them. Join me today in making a choice to slow down and cherish your family while you still can! #parents #cherish #time #love #family #regret #talk #listen #stop #busy #priority #Christianity #KarinSpraberryWest With love always Karin
