Every minute someone leaves this world behind.
We are all in the "queue" without knowing it..
We will never know how many are ahead of us.
We can't move to the bottom of the row..
We can't get out of line,
We can't avoid the queue.
So while we wait in line...
Make priorities..
Let your qualities be known..
Make people feel important...
Make your voice heard..
Make someone smile..
Make peace..
Make sure you tell people you love them..
Live your life with no regrets,
Do things you wouldn't normally do...
Don't waste time on silly arguments...
Because when it's over it's over...no going back.
Live your life the way YOU want too..
On that note.....

Good morning world 🌎
