Makes Me Think

I don't know if the things on the
following site are true, or just
sound good (a wee bit skeptical
sometimes, I suppose), however I
don't think it matters.

The site is MakeMeThink.com. It
has all kinds of things that people
share that might make one step
back, take a beat, and then...?

One that stuck out to me
(although there were many) was:

"Today, like every day for the last
4 years, my father picked a fresh
flower from his garden and took it
to my mother. This time I decided
to go with him to see her. And as
he placed the flower on her grave,
he said, 'I just wish I had picked
her a fresh flower every day when
she was alive.'”

Even though we often receive messages
that there is "no time like the
present" to appreciate something or
someone, we still miss opportunities
to show our appreciation.

What can you do - with consistency -
for those you care about - now -
while they are still present?

Let me know if you visit the site,
and what you think. One warning
before you go, as you might imagine,
the site lives up to its name.

Odds are good it will make you think.

Have a great day. :)
