"This past week, Holy Week, in addition to
reflecting on Jesus Christ’s Passion, Death, and
Resurrection, we grieved with the family of one
of our key marketing directors in our company,
who suddenly succumbed to a heart attack at
age 33 in the prime of his life, plus one of our
family members is faced with serious cancer.
With these happenings, death becomes an
urgent reality.
I received this
inspirational message over
the net that sets our
relationships with others into
a more loving, caring and
divine perspective. The
message touched me, and I
pray that you will also pause
for a moment and read it
twice. Here it is: “If
Tomorrow Never Comes.”
“If I knew it would
be the last time that I'd
see you fall asleep, I would
tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your
soul to keep.
“If I knew it would
be the last time that I see you
walk out the door, I would
give you a hug and kiss and
call you back for one more.
“If I knew it would
be the last time I'd hear
your v oice lifted up in
praise, I would video tape
each action and word, so I
could play them back day
after day.
“If I knew it would
be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two to stop
and say "I love you," instead
of assuming, you would know
I do.
“If I knew it would be
the last time I would be there to
share your day, well I'm sure
you'll have so many more, so I
can let just this one slip away.
For surely, there's always
tomorrow to make up for an
oversight, and we always get a
second chance to make
everything right.
“There will always be
another day to say our "I love
you's", and certainly, there's
another chance to say our
"Anything I can do's?" But just
in case I might be wrong, and
today is all I get, I'd like to say
how much I love you and I hope
we never forget tomorrow is not
promised to anyone, young or
old alike, and today may be the
last chance you get to hold your
loved one tight.
“So if you're waiting
for tomorrow, why not do it
today? For if tomorrow never
comes, you'll surely regret the
day that you didn't take that
extra time for a smile, a hug, or a
kiss and you were too busy to
grant someone what turned out
to be their one last wish.
“So hold your loved
ones close today, whisper in
their ear, tell them how much
you love them and that you'll
always hold them dear. Take
time to say "I'm sorry," "please
forgive me," "thank you" or "it's
okay." And if tomorrow never
comes, you'll have no regrets
about today.”
