Life is short

We spend so much time sweating the small stuff, worrying, complaining, gossiping,comparing,wishing,wanting, and waiting for something bigger and better - instead of focusing on the simple blessings that surround us every day.

Life is so fragile and all it takes is a simple moment to change everything you take for granted. Focus on what’s important and be grateful. You are blessed! Believe it! Live your life and leave no regrets.
