Just a reminder what we have.

This was posted before but with the state of the world we now live in, we all could use a reminder.

A elderly man died and was met at the gates of Heaven by an angel who welcomed him with a recap of the man’s life. Said the Angel, “you were a good son, husband and father, you worked long hours to provide what you perceived to be your family’s needs, both you and they prospered.”
In the blink of an eye, beautiful scenes of majestic mountains appeared. There were lakes and streams of sparkling clear water, vast meadows of wild flowers, forests in which every shade of green radiated from their midst. There were birds so colorful that it seemed like they were from some artist’s vivid imagination. There were sun rises and sun sets so beautiful that it almost took the man’s breath away, and there were people of different colors and cultures, living their lives the best they could. Maybe now the man thought, I’ll have the time to understand their ways and better appreciate who they are.
The man said to the angel, “ Heaven is so magnificent! It is so obvious that this is God’s creation! I had no idea that Heaven would be so incredibly wonderful!”
Said the angel to the man, “No, this is not Heaven. I just wanted to show you what you missed and could have enjoyed while you were back on earth.”

Those of us that already know and appreciate Kipawa’s beauty are way ahead of game. The friends we make whether in person or through this web site adds to our earthly lives.

You don't get these days back.  Live each day as if it were your last and one day you will be right.

Well said bro. I'm so grateful to have a piece of paradise. Almost all that visit camp are awestruck by the area. I spent most of my life working 6 and 7 days a week to feed my family, but I always found time to go to the boat and fish. Often to my wife's chagrin lol.
Days spent fishing don't count against life :)

I try to approach every day like that, hence my signature line....

Though when in multiple airports  a day during a business trip some of that is a little hard to remember or appreciate...but I try...

Embrace every moment...you only get it once

It becomes easy to take it for granted. Thank you for the reminder. Yes we all are very lucky to have found what we all believe is heaven on earth.
