You've heard it a million times: Don't take things for granted. Yet, it's difficult for us to grasp the concept in our everyday lives that seem to move at the speed of light. We're so busy. We have just one more thing to do and then we can have dinner with our kids or grab a drink with a friend we haven't had time to see.
With the recent loss of several American icons, it makes me once again take a step back and admire all the wonderful people I have in my life. My family, my friends and my co-workers.
Don't take those around you for granted. Re-connect. Reach out to those you haven't seen or talked to in awhile. Maybe it's just a quick catch-up on the phone, or maybe it's a long weekend with family. No matter what, thank them for being a part of your life.
I hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend and call at least one person who you've been thinking about!

Great idea. It only takes a few moments to reach out and is much appreciated.
I need to call my 88 year old Uncle in Connecticut. Thanks for the reminder! Have a safe & happy 4th!
