Tomorrow is Never Promised

Several years ago today I lost my father.

He passed rather suddenly and I never got to say goodbye.

I never got to tell him that I loved him one last time.

To this very day it hurts my heart and the regret is heavy.

Today, I urge you to tell those close to you that you love them. Not later, but now. Call them. Text them. Message them.

And if you are struggling with unforgiveness or bitterness that keeps you from your family, I encourage you to commit to moving past it and beginning the process of healing.

I know we can often get caught up in the day to day things in our lives and think “I’ll tell them later” or “I’ll forgive that later”…but there isn’t always a later.

Having gone through a number of Christmas seasons wishing that the only present I could have is to see my father one more time, I can’t tell you enough how many regrets you might have if you don’t.
