poem from a friend

My Friends,
Time........
What does a day mean in your life?
Is it something you would sacrifice?
If I asked for 24 hours,
The thought enters your head and has more power.
There are 1440 minutes would make a days end,
The meaning becomes clear as you spend it with a friend.
86,000 seconds pass each day.........
Face "time" head on and never, never give it away.
Part Time Poet,
Half a** manager, half a brain,
FULL TIME CANCER PATIENT
Damon Hickey
 
Damon is a friend on Cancer Compass, where I found incredible support and compassion during Andy's cancer journey. OK here is a guy -- Damon -- who has been to hell and back. Several surgeries, deficits, kids to take care of, etc. And he says, basically, live your life. Don't give it away.
So to honor Damon, (and Andy) even when I'm sad, I'll live a good life. As often as possible. 
Gotcha covered, Bunny. (That's for Andy.)
