“There’s something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now.”

 Angelina Jolie

It’s sad that it sometimes takes someone dying for us to appreciate what blessings we have in our lives today.  It’s so easy to fuss and complain about what we would like to be different in our lives, but when you consider a life that has ended, you can’t help but appreciate the privilege it is to still be alive.

As sad as it may seem to consider, appreciate the life you have today, as someone would love to still have this privilege today.
