the gift of precious time

Here is a thought that has been on my mind lately, and since I have this wonderful blog, the perfect venue to tell my inner-most thoughts, here goes. What in the world is more important than caring for the people in your life? I think this bears the need for repeating... what in the world is more important than people? Seems like a dumb question right? Well surprisingly enough there are a lot of people out there that don't subscribe to this belief.  People nowadays are consumed with advancing themselves professionally and personally while losing sight of what is really important in life, and that is relationships.  Maybe this is on my mind right now because I'm in college. College is one of the most selfish times in a person's life.  College students are there to better themselves, they don't have children or many responsibilities so they don't have to think about others lives I suppose.  Now, I'm not saying to spend every waking minute with your friends and family. No, just some of your time is all.  I think the most true cliche' I've ever heard is this: Life is short.  Life is far too short to be stressed out about school and the day to day. Life is too short to not be there for the people that need your support and love.
