I Got a Call Today...

I complained about an ache, about being tired, about not having enough money, about having to pay too many bills and then I got a call today...

I grumbled about having to wake up this morning and go to work, I got irritated about not getting what I wanted and then I got a call today...

Yes, I got a call today... that call got me thinking, thinking about life, thinking about others, thinking about what's important. Thinking about gratitude, attitude, and appreciation. Appreciation for the little things. Gratitude for what you have and being able to have a positive attitude about everything.

I've seen it, you've seen it... we've all done it.. taking things for granted, taking life for granted.

Todd it is obvious from what I have read today; in life, you have touched many lives some knowingly maybe some not knowingly. In your passing today, I do not doubt that you will touch many more.
Thank you for being you and always being you. Yes, you deserved better, but you continued to smile all the way through it and taught many of us a lesson we can carry with us for the rest of our lives.

Rest peacefully.
