Life Is Too Short To Be Anything Less Than Happy

I've heard the expression "Life is too short" several times, but it wasn't until yesterday that it really hit home. A friend of mine from school (who sadly was younger than I am) passed away, and what really broke my heart about the entire situation is that a child is supposed to bury their mother and not the other way around.

I understand that Khloe has her own life and will eventually go on to live it however she chooses to, but I can't help but have high hopes for her future when I can clearly see all of the potential that she possess. As a mom I could never fathom the idea of never seeing how many degrees she obtains, or how beautiful her children will be one day.

With that said, my prayers go out to the family of my lost friend and to any woman that has ever had to live that painful time of burying her own baby. The job we have as single parents is hard enough without having to add anymore stress to it.

MORAL OF THE STORY: I read an article where a nurse said that when someone is close to death they normally say the same things. "I wish I didn't work as hard", "I wish I would have spent more time with my family, or " I wish I would not have spent so much time stressing on the little things".  Before having a melt down as yourself "WILL THIS MATTER THIS TIME NEXT YEAR?" If it wont..then DON'T STRESS IT! Make your dreams come true, but make your kid's dream come true of spending more time with you also. Family is the most important thing in the world and they should always know that!
