If you ever had a close family member die...

Did you start thinking about your own time on earth a lot more? Every day since my dad passed in February, I'm thinking of A. How sad it is Bec it was so fast, and B. How much more time do I have?
Will I get cancer too? Will I get some other severe disease? Or get hit head on by a speeding car?
It makes me realize how little time we have and to maybe start LIVING more. But it also makes me so helpless, that we all leave here😢

Yes ... my grandfather, my uncle ... both died of cancer ... my grandmother died of a stroke ... others as well.

And I had one incident where I was hurt badly and spent some time in a hospital. Some have said it was life threatening.

So yes, I've thought a lot about my mortality. In my About Me here there is a poem that has been in my About Me on here for at least ten years. It's by Chief Tecumseh. Check it out. 😉
