Celebrating a life inevitably leads us to recognize this truth: life is only about relationships.

Last week, I had the honor of attending the funeral celebrating the mother of one of my closest friends. 

It may seem unusual to use the phrase “I had the honor” when talking about a funeral.

However, when I think about this person’s life, I feel…

• Honored to have known her for 30+ years.
• Honored to meet the multiple generations whom she loved, cared for, and mentored.
• Honored to know her son, whose life is a clear reflection of her influence.

Friends, life is short, be intentional about what matters most.

That will always include your most valuable relationships.
