How long have you got?

Wow... I just got off the phone with a friend that I hadn't spoken to for about 6 months. When I asked how he was, he replied with "great now that I am back on my feet"... I asked what had happened?
What he told me next knocked me for a six. At the age of 38, he was diagnosed with high grade prostate cancer, 1 month before his latest addition to the family was due to be born!
Amazingly, he has been given the 'all clear' now and is getting on with life. The Dr told him if it wasnt picked up and surgically removed, he wouldn't have made it to fourty!
So why am I sharing this with you? I think it's a nice reminder that we shouldn't take any day for granted. What have you done today to get yourself closer to your goal? It certainly made me stop and think!
