21 Days

I just received news that the husband of an old family friend passed away. In my small hometown, word gets around quickly, so I was even more surprised because I didn’t even know he was sick. It happened that fast.

Three weeks. 21 days. 504 hours. Cancer doesn’t discriminate.

Where was I on April 5th? Where am I now? Where will I be on May 17th?

This is the type of event that prompts me to ask these types of questions. It jolts me just enough to let go of some of the things that I’ve been holding on to. And, while I’ll most likely carry on as usual after a few days, it doesn’t hurt to think about whether or not I am living life to the fullest.
