I went to a funeral yesterday. As always it is a cause of reflection. It was the first funeral that I can remember that I didn't cry at. It had more the feel of a wake, than a funeral. Yes, there were of course people crying, but it was more a celebration of his life.
He was well known and the funeral was the biggest I have seen in a long time. He did indeed figure out the key to having a full life.
I want that for my family too. I know it isn't about "things" but experiences and reaching out to others that gets you there. Yet, in the day to day life, when we aren't reflective, we tend to forget that idea and let ourselves be weighed down. We only seem to cherish each day when we know our "time limit".
Maybe it is as simple as all that. Cherish each and every day not because it may be your last but because you have it to begin with.
