First I was dying to finish high school and start college, then finish college and start working, then marry and have children, then for my children to grow up so I could go back to work, but then I was dying to retire. Now I am dying and I suddenly realized I forgot to live. Don't let this happen to you - appreciate your current situation, thank God for the good and bad in your life, and remember that every day is a day of thanksgiving. While you are in the present, God is working on your future.
