Our time with our loved ones and friends
We know not when will end
The time with them is precious
Them to us God did only lend

Let us make the most of each moment
And to cherish every day
For we know not when will be the last
When from us they walk away

It matters not their ages
Whether they are young or old
For when our time on earth is finished
Our days will all be told

So let us make the most of each moment
And to cherish every day
For we know not when will be the last
When from us they walk away

The truth is all we have is ~now~ and to think how often we let those moment escape unnoticed, only to wish them back often when it's too late.

Words to heed. Thanks for reminding me.

Ethel

A beautiful sentiment and you have captured it with eloquent words.
Very nicely done.
I have a 78 year old mother going in for an operation in the next couple of weeks so these words of yours really hit home with me.

This is an especially powerful message for me this morning... a reminder we all need!!
