Why, you ask, do I write this status?




One day it will show up in my memory feed, and it will be a yearly reminder that life is precious and not to take the things we dearly love for granted.




We have so much!

Be thankful. Be grateful.

Be kind to each other - love one another - support everyone.




We are all one! ❤️
