Last week reminded me just how vulnerable and short-lived we all are.
First, one of the best fellas on the planet, a good friend and colleague of mine died abruptly at age 61. They have not determined why yet, not a heart attack, nothing obvious. Just complained about not feeling well, went to the hospital, and passed.
Three days later, a cousin of mine met his fate in a head-on with a loaded semi. Dead instantly. Had a new girlfriend, new job, making a fresh start...bam! Gone.
Makes one sit up and take stock of how one spends one's life and time.
