Hug Your Spouse

Yesterday I received horrible news. One of my best friends since 4th grade just lost her husband. He was only 41 years old. He was playing golf with his friends on Sunday and had a sudden heart attack and died. They have a 4-year-old daughter and she's pregnant with their second and is due next month. I've been in shock ever since being told. I couldn't stop crying at first because he was her hero, her soulmate. I was there when they first started dating and we all used to double date. I just saw him a couple months ago and he looked great. He wasn't overweight but was athletic. If all of you could just take the time to kiss your spouse. Tell them that you love them. I can't even imagine what she's going through. He was a wonderful person, a great dad, and had such an awesome sense of humor. I can't imagine her life without him.

Appreciate the love you have. Live everyday to the fullest. And hug close your spouse. Everyday you have with them is blessed.

I know. I was thinking about your friend when I got the news. At least her husband went quickly and she didn't have to make the decision yours did. It's so heart wrenching.

One reason Cat and I say I love you every chance we get. My dive off the bike reset our ...reality in how fragile life is.

It's been a week.
*hugs to dear friends as well*
