Thursday Thoughts~ one last phone call
If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting?
~Stephen Levine
I love this quote! Absolutely love it! You never know what is going to happen, tomorrow is not guaranteed actually the next five minutes aren’t guaranteed if you want the hard truth about it. Why put off telling somone how much you love them or how thankful you are that they are in your life just because you assume they will always be there? They will not always be there… you will not always be there… so now is the time to tell them.
My only problem with this quote is I would have a really hard time knowing who to call. If I knew that my time was up here on Earth I would want to tell my kids goodbye for sure, my fiance and my family. It would be too hard to pick between them all! Knowing that I love my children, brothers, sisters, father and absolutely my step father more then anything and my fiance’s voice is certainly a sound I would want to hear, I still know that my fingers would automatically dial my mother because she’s more important to me then I could ever have her understand, it’s not that she’s more important to me then my kids or other loved ones but it’s just a bond that no one can touch. Her voice, her laughter, and the strength in her voice as I know she would have as she would tell me all the right things to make me feel better even though at that moment she wouldn’t believe any of them I’m sure 
is exactly what I would want to hear for my last phone call. Hopefully I’ll never have to deal with that and if I do have to only make one phone call before I die maybe everyone will be in the same house together and I can talk to them on speaker phone!
So take a moment and think about that quote… who would you call?
