2.10.11 - Life is precious…cherish it!

Last night my dear friend, Beth's dad, died suddenly from a heart attack. 

This struck a deep chord in me that life is truly precious and so short. It made me think about a lot of things in my own life. I try to live life to the fullest, but there are days when I find myself complaining about minute details that really don't matter. I am so blessed and I really want to cherish every moment that I have. I want to appreciate and love my family and friends even more than I do.

Today Jacob, Kyle and I surfed south of the Jetty. When I was in the water, I was completely content and found peace. My thoughts still lingered, but I was in the moment. When I connect with the wave, I find pure ecstasy. I want to have connections with my friends and family that only bring joy and happiness. I want to take this life and truly live the best life that I can because I never know when it will end.

Cherish Life,
J-Bird
