Living

I'm trying to do what Tim Mc Graw told me to: "live like you were dying". I've got to keep this mantra in my head. In the past few months, I have found out that three of my friends have cancer. They are people who are strong and have good spirits and I know that God is holding them in His hands.
But, every day when I'm tired and aching and don't want to keep going and do anything else, I think of them. I'm going to try to keep those thoughts in my head every day!

Who am I?

Today, I marched in the Dutchess County St. Patrick's Parade. It was a fun time and I went with my Brownie Troop. As I was walking along the road, I noticed so many people having a wonderful time watching the parade. It was such a great event - there were tons and tons of people and lots of them were having parties. It was almost like tailgating before a big game.

What struck me was this - when was the last time I was at a St. Patrick's parade without a beer in my hand? Who am I? What have I become?
