Don't save it for the funeral.
An elderly man lay dying in his bed. In death's agony, he suddenly
smelled the aroma of his favorite chocolate chip cookies wafting up
the stairs. He had lived a simple life. He had not asked for much. But
if there is one thing he had always wanted it is his favorite
chocolate chip cookies.
He gathered his remaining strength, and lifted himself from the bed.
Leaning against the wall, he slowly made his way out of the bedroom,
and with even greater effort forced himself down the stairs, gripping
the railing with both hands.
With labored breath, he leaned against the doorframe, gazing into the
kitchen. Were it not for death's agony, he would have thought himself
already in heaven: There, spread out on the kitchen table, were
literally hundreds of his favorite chocolate chip cookies.
"No…no…no…this could not be heaven or was it heaven?" the old man
thought to himself. Or was it merely one final act of heroic love from
his devoted wife seeing to it that he left this world a happy man?
Mustering one great final effort, he threw himself toward the table.
His aged and withered hand made its way to a cookie at the edge of the
table, when his wife suddenly smacked it with a spatula.
"Stay out of those," she said. "They're for the funeral."
The question is, "Why save the good for the funeral when it should
have been shared and enjoyed beforehand by the living?" Isn't it a
shame that flowers are given when they could no longer be seen and
words are said when they can no longer be heard.
Typical Wife

Happiness is a journey, not a destination. Work like you don't need
money, Love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's
watching. Live today as if there's no more tomorrow not in a spirit of
carefree abandon or recklessness but in celebration of life as a gift
If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.
