....just crap.....

the last few days have been crap

just feeling let down with people and the world in general

as im sitting around feeling sorry for myself

i browse through facebook and see that a young man of 43 years old died swiftly and unexpected last friday night at home with his wife.  just an ordinary day were they both got up that morning and went about their day (they were a husband-wife team photographers)....

neither one of them expecting the day to be any different from any other friday....

thats the problem with people, or society in general...we always think that there is going to be a tomorrow when in fact, none of us are promised any number of days upon this earth. none of us know if we will be around another day to watch the sunset, or greet the morning with a cup of fresh brewed coffee on the back porch....

i read where a few people had said that they had been meaning to catch up with (Jeff McCue) (the deceased) but just hadn't had time or perhaps thought as most of us do....

ill do it tomorrow....

but....

what if there is ...

.no tomorrow . period.

for you, or your friends

...your loved ones....

what then?

i'll never understand when people read or hear of something terribly sad...they acknowledge that it is sad but if it doesn't effect them personally...they go on about their day with never a second thought ....when i try to wrap my brain around this, it is inconceivable as to how they can do that...

~~~~~~~~~~~

i honestly am truly sadden and distraught at the lack of compassion a lot of people have in our society today....that if it tragedy doesn't strike them personally, no big deal...just another day...

~~~~~~~~~~~

im ashamed of myself to say that i've been in a slump this week

thinking and reacting on my situations when in comparison to some people right now

mine are needless and whiny excuses to self absorb into myself....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

its sad to say but sometimes someone elses tragedy will pull us out of our slump...

be grateful

be humble

and most importantly

love your family

your friends

even people you don't know

~~~~~~~~~

i personally feel the world would   be a better place if we stopped with all the hating 

and started spreading more 

LOVE

everywhere we went

XOXO

(ps....hence the photos...baking is always a good way for me to get out

of a slump!)
