Why Wait-

DO IT. Don't wait for anything. When I look back on my 21 years of life I think about everything I've ever done, all the places I've ever been, and the people I have met and man my heart is full. When I think about all the things I WANT to do I get a little sad. I have lived for 21 years and my bucket list is not even halfway from being crossed off!

Now I am hoping that God has many more years left in store me and when I am 80 I can sit in a rocking chair drinking peach tea and smile and my man in black (aka future Johnny and June) and say I did everything I ever wanted.

But what if God decides to not let me live till I'm 80? What if he decides to take me now, or tomorrow, or when I am 32 and have 6 kids? Those people that God takes too soon for His own reasoning.

I wonder if they accomplished everything they ever wanted, if they saw all they wanted to see, and did all they wanted to do? I will never know and so maybe that's another reason to not wait.

To live for those who can't anymore. I know that when I am sky diving or parasailing or drinking wine in Italy or singing "Boston" in Boston or star gazing in Sedona, Arizona or shot gunning a beer with my dad or running in the Boston Marathon or going to New York for New Years Eve I will be thinking of ALL those who have gone before me and I will not only know I am living for them but living for my own satisfaction of accomplishment, of a successful life on Earth when I get to go where our bucket lists should take us.

"I know I'm going to Heaven, but I can't go like this, I need to pull myself together, before then. No I ain't afraid of dying, but what scares me to death, is meeting Jesus with regret on my breath."

GO LIVE.
