Life Is Short

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. 

 

So love the people who treat you right. 

 

Love the ones who don't just because you can. 

 

Believe everything happens for a reason. 

 

If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. 

 

If it changes your life, let it. 

 

Kiss slowly. 

 

Forgive quickly.   

 

God never said life would be easy. He just promised it would be worth it.
