During fast paced times like these, it's hard to sit back and remember every single thing you appreciate. Holidays make you realize what you have and what you have lost. Something that always gets me is when someone dies, you care about it SO MUCH; you wonder how you will ever get over it, how you can live without them, when the day will come that you will wake up and not think about that person.
And then it happens.
And once you realize you don't think about that person every day, it is sad. Life is going by us so quickly lately, and you can't forget about the fallen. Today, keep that memory in your mind and your heart. It is healthy to remember a loved one that passed, and to honor them. Think of their face, what they would say if they were here now. It is okay if you don't think about them again tomorrow, but think about them today.
