Subdeacon Joe Posted August 2, 2022 Posted August 2, 2022 A FB find. "Make the Chili" A good friend of mine unexpectedly lost his wife. A couple months later we were golfing together, chatting about nothing. He asked what my dinner plans were and I told him wifey wanted my homemade chili and cornbread, but I didn't feel like stopping at the store. We golfed a few more minutes when he quietly said, “Make the chili." It took me a few minutes to realize we were no longer talking about dinner. It was about going out of your way to do something for someone you love because at any moment, they could unexpectedly be taken from you. So today I'm sharing with you that wisdom handed to me by my dear friend, that I've thought of many times since that day. Next time someone you love wants you to go for a walk or watch a football game or play a board game or just put your phone down and give them your undivided attention, just do it. “Make the chili”
Waxahachie Kid #17017 L Posted August 2, 2022 Posted August 2, 2022 Great point. We don't realize how things can change in just a few seconds. We don't realize how fleeting life is. We don't realize the importance of things, until they are gone. Yeah...make the chili...while there is yet time.
