In our lives, there are times when we are apt to get and maintain high amounts of activity and stress. Many of us get so busy that we forget to remember and celebrate, on occasion what life is really about. If you are reading this, you are alive. This isn't something to be taken for granted, because we are not always guaranteed new life as each day passes.

Take time out every once in a while and reflect upon your life. Sure, we should work hard, but we have to remember that we work hard so that we can help to bless the people that we care about, not for ourselves.

Be there for the people that you love. Take time out for the birthday parties, the weddings, the bar-mitzvah's, dinner parties, and cookouts with the people that you love, and who help you to feel alive. You only have one life to live, so be an example of love, strength and peace by the time it is over. Don't chase a dream and forget about the people who help your heart continue to beat.
