WHAT MATTERS MOST

Went to a funeral today.

The mom of my cousin's wife passed away. A phenomenal woman. A phenomenal wife. A phenomenal mom. A phenomenal grammy. A phenomenal human being.

She battled MS for 45 years.

She went to heaven, early in the morning on Christmas eve.

As I sat and thought about her and the difficult life she lived, I was impressed with this one thing: she lived life extremely well because she knew what mattered most. She invested herself into God and into her family. Talk about an outstanding family! Her daughter, her grand kids...outstanding people....just like their mom and grammy.

Life may not always turn out like we would like, but we can still focus on what matters most.

MTC!
