Family Time

Time, always ticking, always it never really stops and it always seems the more fun your having the faster it goes.  How many times have you heard this statement.

“We all have 365 days in a year, 24 hours in a day and 60 minutes in an hour.”

Do we really? I mean we all want to believe that we have tomorrow, next year and so forth.  Hopefully we don’t abuse our time here on earth.  How about this favorite quote, I am sure you have heard atleast once.

“We all have to die sometime.”

Another true statement usually made after we have that “something” , we should not have had.

If you knew you only had today or tomorrow what would you do?  What would you say to a loved one?  What would you try to do in those last hours?

Tim McGraw had a great song that stated “Live like you were dying”.   A great statement we seldom live up to.

If you watched Grey’s Anatomy , the season finale the final 10 minutes,  heck more than that spoke about making use of the time to say I love you.  I need you and making the other person who we do care about know that we don’t want to take the chance or put off another moment to say your important to me.

We all know that family time is important, we all know that we are mortal.  But do we put the two things together enough to make a difference to each other.

Hey I am from Pittsburgh, Home of the Pittsburgh Steelers of the NFL and the Pittsburgh Penguins of the NHL and I know how important fans are to both of these teams.  How many fans each team has outside of the area of Pittsburgh, PA.  Go to a game or an event and see how fanatical we get when we win.  Great stuff no doubt about it.

But, do we ever get that fanatical with the ones we love? I am not saying go crazy here and do the wave in your living room or paint your kids name on your chest.  LOL!  But for real what if we focused on each other the way we do on our favorite sports team winning?

Life is short, we have heard that many times before.  So this weekend, this Saturday take the extra moment to look at the ones you love, at the ones who mean the most to you and let them know how you feel.

Tell them , you love them.

Tell them, what they mean to you.

Tell them, how you would feel without them.

Power Action Thought for today  ~ ~ Number 41  Tell those who mean the most how they matter in your life.  Tell them, you love them.
