During the month of September, a dear friend of mine lost her husband suddenly in an accident. The tragedy was a  1  to everyone. When I got the news, I drove home  2  that we just don’t know when a loved one is  3  going to be with us. We sometimes take our loved ones  4 , and we expect that they will be with us forever.  5 , as we all know, life does not work that  6  and sometimes we get a wake up call that shocks us and makes us  7  and realize how short life is.

In comforting her at the funeral, I tried to imagine if I was in her  8  how would I feel.

As I was leaving the  9 , I ran into a Marilyn, who has been a true friend to me over the years. When she asked me how my job was, I started  10  things through. I was having a  11  week with my job and I was telling her how I was feeling. She listened to me as I was shouting my 12 , then without saying a word, she took her hands and  13  them on my face, and said to me, “But at least you had a day.”

The  14  of her hands on my cheeks, the  15  in her voice, and the words she spoke, “BUT AT LEAST YOU HAD A DAY”, hit me like a ton of  16 . All the frustrations, all the stress that was  17  inside me - came to a complete  18 .

Since that day, when I start feeling  19 , I remind myself of Marilyn's words - but at least I had a day! Things could be a lot  20 , but I am alive and I have a lot to be thankful for.
