So Why Is Life So Short?

Soooo, all in all, life is too short, am i right? Over the next few weeks i'm going to tell you WHY I personally think it's too short, and what i do about it to make my time here as worthwhile as it gets!
You know the saying, "you don't know what you have until it's gone"? Well that's my kind of life model. I feel like you don't know what you're missing until the opportunity has already passed, and it's too late. So why on earth would you say no? You more often than not regret NOT doing something, than regretting something you've done.

So never say no.
Jump at opportunities to meet new people. You never know when you shake that person's hand for the first time if down the road they will become your best friend!
Travel. Pictures and books can't help you learn about cultures as much as visiting somewhere for a new perspective.
Try new food! You look at something and decide against it because of outward appearence. You don't know if you'll like it unless you've tried it!
Smile. Because behind those stangers faces, you don't know what they are facing at home. A single smile could be the only thing that brightens their day, or add to a whole list of things that made there day good!
Love deeply. Love is hardly ever a sin. If you show your love to others, the love of God will shine through you. You can never love your family or friends too much, but you CAN love them too little.
Say It Before it's Too Late. Tell someone you love them. Tell them you're worried about them. Tell them you want to be friends again. Tell someone they are beautiful. Tell someone you are praying for them. Tell someone you would do anything for them. Tell someone you want to help them. Tell someone that they have changed your life in a way no one could.
