Putting Things in Perspective

Rest In Peace.

It takes the loss of someone we barely know, if at all, to put things in perspective. I am reminded that life is so fleeting, that we are here for such a short time to have our impact, to make our statement, to be a good person, to be generous, kind and considerate. This is what we hear about Natasha.

So for today, I am not going to go on and on about the ills of the financial world, or dish anyone’s upper lip augmentation. I am going to be still and remember that today is all I have. And I will do something that makes me know that I am a person who lives his life making choices that are in the best interest of others as well as myself. My heart goes out to the family members of those loved ones they have lost.

Believe me, I’ll be back with a vengeance, persnickety and annoyed. But it takes a day of reckoning to sit back and consider whether I am being the best I can be. My friend Tim’s dog Cain passed away yesterday as well. Loss of a loved one is a critical moment of change. It washes over you and ultimately re-shapes your destiny.

Bye Bye Cain :(

Bye Bye Cain :(

I wish all of you that experience loss, God speed.
