for you never know how soon it will be too late.
How many times have we said,
"Oh I'll do that tomorrow."
Sometimes tomorrow never comes
and we find ourselves saying,
"Boy, I wish I hadn't put that off."
Our family has been friends with Betty for many years.
Over the years
we shared phone calls
and birthday cards.
Betty sent our youngest son Brandon a birthday card
with $5.00 in it
until he graduated.
This past November
I called Betty to see how she was
and what she had done on her birthday.
I was quite surprised when Betty didn't answer the phone;
Carol told me
and she was now in Hospice care.
Carol handed the phone to Betty.
and let her know we loved her.
As soon as I got off the phone
I sent a text to Brandon
to let him know
Betty wasn't doing well.
Little did I know
that Brandon stopped what he was doing
and immediately5 sent flowers to Betty.
You can imagine
how proud I was of Brandon
when Carol called the next day
letting me know
how much Betty loved the flowers
Brandon had sent.
A few days later
Betty died.
You can never do a kindness too soon,
for you never know how soon it will be too late.
