"Every time you're given a choice between disappointing someone else and disappointing yourself, your duty is to disappoint that someone else. Your job, throughout your entire life, is to disappoint as many people as it takes to avoid disappointing yourself." -Untamed by Glennon Doyle

Life is Short
Today I attended a funeral of a very kind woman. Her death was very sudden and shocking, and she was fairly young. I couldn't believe how much I cried. I wasn't close to her, but I was still saddened at her passing. But I just thought about life, and what if that had been me in that coffin. I'm not trying to depress anyone, but it just got me thinking about so many things and how precious life is. Our time here on earth is so short, and we never know when it will be over. I hope I can truly enjoy every moment, so that whenever my time is up, I will look back without any regrets.
