Alive and Well
Yes, that's actually my heart
Earlier this week I had my annual check-up with my cardiologist. After the usual round of tests, they proclaimed that my heart is still just as confusing as it has ever been – AND that it continues to defy the odds and remains strong!
Later that day, I posted news about this as my Facebook status. (Hey, if you aren’t friends with me on Facebook yet…) I was touched by the response! Many of the people who “liked” my status or commented on it were people that I don’t actually talk to on a regular basis, yet they took a moment to let me know that they were happy to hear of my continued good health.
I think this is a great lesson for us all. Yes, we should absolutely offer thoughts and prayers for people who are sick or otherwise in need. But let’s not forget to take a moment to honor the healthy too! Right now, I want you to get in touch with someone you care about and let them know that you’re happy that they are alive and well and that they are in your life!
I guarantee that you’ll make their day… and yours too!
Do it – and then come back here and leave a comment to tell me how it went!
