I enjoy being a nerd and I actually love learning random things about space and our universe. So today I read that NASA discovered an asteroid two days ago that is going to pass within 8000 miles of Earth. They said it is not going to hit us and that it is too small to do any damage anyway so don't freak out. With that being said it made me think about a few things.
People pass away everyday and lots of people on this planet aren't going to see Monday. I don't know if I am one of them but I damn sure hope not. But something does scare the hell out of me about death. It isn't the physical part or any pain that may come with it but the idea of having regrets before it happens.
What I am trying to say is I don't want to look back on my life without having accomplished a lot of things that are important to me. I am not talking about some damn "bucket list" (even though that isn't a bad thing).
I am talking about things like...
Letting the people who you care about know it
Not giving up on your dreams no matter what anyone else thinks
Not settling for someone who doesn't deserve you
If you do meet that someone let them no it and again to hell with what everyone else thinks
Trying to over come what keeps you up at night
Surrond yourself with the people and things that put a smile on your face. And finally here is a quote that someone gave me and that I have shared before that kind of sums this up.
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us, anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift."
