A friend of mine gave this plaque to me for my birthday (thanks Stephanie!) and I can't express enough how happy I am to have it. I put it in my kitchen right by the sink, so I look at it often. So many people have commented on it. Since my sister died, it has been a great reminder to me of what is most important in life......to love. Just love each other more. It is sad to me that I've had to experience a loss to realize I need to let go of the frustrations and irritations of life and just love everyone. I want to make my sister proud and more importantly, I want to be with her again so I am going to love my heart out!

What is most important

Dear Shannon,
I have noticed this in your kitchen and I absolutely love it! Thank you for sharing it - it has a message that is so important - and so true! I am going to be sure to add these things to my "to do" list every day (okay, maybe not the ice cream - that one I will save for every other day :)) but you are so right! I am so sorry about your sister's passing from this life but am so thankful that we know and you know that families are forever. I know it must still hurt so much - we want to hug and see our loved ones now, who have passed - they are with us though. I know that with every warm breeze or whenever I ask them to be with me.
You are an amazing woman and person, Shannon. I am honored and blessed to be your friend.
LOVE YOU!
- Chris
Shannon it's good to hear that this has been a source of strength for you. Life really is all about how we can love and help others ... how we change lives and mold people into a better individual. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you go through this difficult time.
