So, the other day I was strolling down the hallway after the 8th period bell rang when I noticed Craig walking glumly down the hall. I stopped, concerned, to ask him what was wrong and he told me that everything was alright. I proceeded to ask him if he had a bad day and he replied, "I never have bad days. I wake up in the morning and I'm alive." When he said this, all I could possibly think was WOW, what an amazing response. It made me feel as though I was being selfish and unthoughtful when I waste a day angry over something foolish because there are people who are not well or who have lost a loved one. We should all learn to be more like Craig and cherish every second of life, every breath of air we inhale. Life is precious.*
Aww i like this little entry! :)
ReplyDeleteSome people go through their lives without ever realizing the wisdom that you learned from Craig. I feel very much as he does. Every day is a blessing and sometimes I'll wake and say a prayer, thanking God for giving me another day.
