NOW
“One of the hardest things to realize ,” she said “is that our ‘some day’ IS right now.”
They might be just words on a decorative magnet that now sits on my microwave, but for this community, I think they hold a deeper message.
WE always thought we had tomorrow. Plans were in the ‘future’ instead of the ‘immediate future.’ And the plans were in the plural rather that singular.
If we’ve learned anything, we’ve learned the meaning of ‘now.’

True. It’s a hard lesson to learn, but deeply important to realize.

Though I can truly say I hate cancer, we we lucky to get and understand the “now”. We know the importance of saying all the things you ever want them to know – NOW, go where you have always wanted, NOW, show your love, NOW, be around your loved ones NOW, stop and smell the flowers NOW. We won’t miss out because we are well aware of the NOW. We are lucky to have that.
