Wow! I might have to put these in my journal for thoughtful writing! #19. The best gift I have ever received was the birth of Griffin and Alec, my two sons. #101. The first time I realized life was so short, I was in the 12th grade and our next door neighbor just two years older than me died in an auto accident. They were coming back from a party and he was changing the radio station when he crossed the line and hit a semi head on. That brought such sadness and shock to our whole town.
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT list...not just for conversations with others, but with myself. {don't worry, I'm not crazy yet!:) } Seriously lots of food for thought here, Melissa. xo Lidy
