This Song = Our Current Favorite

Happy Friday before the 4th, friends! Do you realize it’s already July? WTF?! Whatever, it’s all good.

Speaking of all good, I wanted to post this song that’s givin’ me the feels. I wanna listen to it while sitting at my desk, on a run; it makes me feel like I’m sweating rainbows or some shiz…

 

Of course that could also be because I’m HEADING ON VACAY IN T-MINUS 10 HOURS (and Stephie’s already on hers!). Sigh… life is good.

Happy 4th of July everyone!

xoxo,

“The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others how much they love them while they’re alive.” – Orlando A. Battista

I can’t tell you how much lately I’ve been thinking about how my family is not going to be around forever. Maybe it’s that my life seems to be quietly and quickly passing by like the sand through the Days of our Lives hourglass; maybe it’s because last week a friend lost his beloved mom, way too quickly.

I don’t know when this thought started creeping into my head and banging my inner thoughts like a slowly building drum, but lately I’m very aware how lucky I am to have both parents, my grandma, my favorite uncles… alive. Here on Earth to pick up the phone.

We can’t slow time; we can’t keep our parents from aging. But what we can do is tell them and those we love how much we love them. I plan to do this even more.

xoxo,
