In the end, we are all the same.<\/p>\n<p>We can be a homeless person on the street or the CEO of a billion dollar global corporation, living in a multi-million dollar mansion. It doesn&#8217;t matter. Because when we breathe our last breath, our life has been no more than a vapor.<\/p>\n<p>We may live to be a hundred years old. And we may be looked upon as being alive for many decades, but in the eyes of God, our age is nothing.<\/p>\n<p>Life goes by so fast. I always tell people who have a newborn baby that they had better not blink, because if they do, their child will be an adult and moving out of the house to get married.<\/p>\n<p>Many people chuckle when I say that to them, but years later, they tell me how true it is, as they see their children growing up so quickly.<\/p>\n<p>We need to cherish each day that we&#8217;re given. Each day is a gift from God, not ours to dawdle away or waste.<\/p>\n<p>We need to love those around us and spend time with them while we can. We never know when we will see someone for the last time.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s live life with purpose, not letting it slip through our fingers. This may sound clich\u00e9, but it&#8217;s a truth that only <i>we<\/i>\u00a0can embrace and bring to reality in our own lives. Nobody can do it for us.<\/p>\n<p>So love God and those He has placed in your life.
