Okay, so I just finished watching last nights episode, and after crying through almost the entire show, I decided to write a blog about it. This show makes me cry all the time, I know its just a TV show, but its about real life events...
.
This is a very emotional topic for anyone with loved ones. The character, Izzy, is dying of cancer. She got married to the man that she loves even though she and her husband are sure that she isn't going to live...romantic yes, but very sad and eye opening...people take each day that they have on this earth for granted. Many people take the people they love for granted without even realizing it. When you hear the expression "live each day as if it were your last," its really what you should do. I tell my husband I love him every night, I kiss him before I fall asleep...you never want to regret your last encounter with someone you love...they say never go to bed angry, occasionally you might go to bed upset anyway, but its best to try not to. Tomorrow may be another day, you may want to put things off, but tomorrow may never come. Not to sound morbid or anything, but that is the truth, that is life. Not everyone dies from cancer, not everyone dies from a car accident, people die everyday for many reasons...its not something you can fore-see or prevent, so instead of working all the time because you think money is the only way to get by, instead of putting things off that may not seem that important, such as a camping trip, instead of saying that you cant afford something that you really want, live...live like its your last day. Spend time with your family and friends, they love you...work doesn't love you. Yes, we have responsibilities and have to work...by all means I'm not saying everyone needs to quit their jobs and live in a box, that's silly and unrealistic lol. I love my husband with all my heart, I couldn't imagine having cancer, like any woman I wear make up, I do my hair, I couldn't imagine losing all my hair (although I know my husband would love me just as much if I didn't wear make up or have hair to do, its a rough thing to imagine having to live with, and yet people do it with no choice in the matter), I couldn't imagine not being able to take a walk with my husband, take pictures of random things, make love with him...have children...
.
I'm very bad about stressing out...I'm a girl, what can I say...but the things I stress over, really aren't that important...yes, bills need to be paid, we need to eat, I have to work...the bills will get paid, we will be able to eat, I am fortunate enough to have a job...those things are not worth stressing over. My health is important. My husband is my world and his well being is top priority. My family is worth worrying about. Those are the things in life worth focusing on.

Each day is a gift not a given right, so live it & live it well.
