Because life is precious

Because life is precious
Go on your dream vacation, instead of waiting until <insert your excuse here>
Because life is precious
Be the best aunty/uncle ever, instead of focusing on the fact that you do not have children of your own
Because life is precious
Make time for the people who are important to you, instead of being "too busy"
Because life is precious
Make an effort to celebrate each birthday, instead of taking it for granted that there will be many others to come
Because life is precious
Treasure every moment that you have, instead of fretting about the ones you don't
Because life is precious
Let your loved ones know how much you appreciate them now, instead of waiting until it's too late
Because life is precious
Invest in making a positive impact on the lives of those around you, instead of living only to please yourself
Because life is precious
Live it in such a way that at the end you can say, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith"
Because life is precious.

Dedicated to my Naps classmate and friend Aviane Hunte, who always reminded us that life is precious.


Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die."
John 11:25
