The winter of my life
This was written by Kent Haaven who passed in his Sleep early Saturday Morning, July 30th, 2011, a fellow USAFSS Veteran. This was one of his last posts to a military web site that he contributed to frequently. I did not know Kent personally, but thought this message was worth repeating.
Good morning Al, what a great reminder for all of us to take advantage of the days that we are given, and to live our lives as fully as possible.
Hi Al. Absolutely worth repeating and worth remembering. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for stopping by to read my blog and to comment this morning Malcolm and Cal.
Malcolm, He said it all and we should try to enjoy what we have.
Cal, we all know life is too short but sometimes we need someone to remind us to get us thinking about what we do every day.
Al, What a touching story by Kent about his life. It makes one realize that life is precious, so handle it with care.
Thanks for stopping by Sandy, life is sometimes not fair but it is the only one we have.
Hi Al,
How come we wait till we are in our senior years?
We need to be with these thoughts as we go through life.
I know it's very hard to do this. This was a great post for all to read.
Have a great day my friend. Now I'm going to write my "bucket list". LOL

That's a great tribute to this man, using his own words. They will no doubt inspire many here on Active Rain.
Be sure to not KICK that bucket while making your list Clint.
Thanks Chris Ann, surely an inspirational message.
It's just too bad that most people are too busy trying to survive that they don't have time or money to live life well, have fun, or enjoy today.
Al, that was such a poignant article. I'm sure his family and friends are grieving for him and his wisdom. I so appreciate the opportunity to have read this.
Thanks Mona, I'm glad you enjoyed reading, it seems like he knew he was going to pass away.
