you never know...

i never really full realized how short life really is. i had no idea how quickly God could take it away from you. up tragic news about what had happened to a young woman at our church i realized just how quickly life can be taken away from you. life is short and you should cherish your life while you still have it. when hearing about someone like Tiffany Tilenni get killed it makes me think how lucky we are to have our lives i barely knew her but meeting her once had touched my life and i was sad i can barely even begin to think how her family must feel. please be praying for them. i feel terrible that she had to get killed because she was such a wondrful person. its sad. in the song "we live" by superchick (superchico) it says "we live, we love, we forgiv and never give up becuase the days we are living are gifts from above" wow how amazingly tru each day is a gft from God and we should cherish is just like we cherish any other gift we get from God, like our salvation. hearing about Tiffany's death has made me thankful for my life. it makes me very sad to know that when i walk into OLV for mass on saturdays i will no longer see her sitting in the row in front of me with her family, i will just see her mom, dad, and brother. i pray that she died with peace and happiness and that she didnt have to go through extreme pain and suffering before dying. i dont know enough about her to know if she is in heaven but i hope that she is. please keep the tilenni family in your prayers.
