Don’t wait to buy that red dress!

 

         
I was re-reading one of my favorite books yesterday, Leo Buscaglia’s ‘Living, Loving, & Learning’ and came across a short story where he describes how a friend of his lost his wife and was asking whether he should bury her in that red satin dress she always wanted, but he never got around to buying it for her. He had always thought he would get it for her when…when just never seemed to come along. I wonder how often we put off doing something really important for someone we love, something we know they really want, that we can make happen with not too much trouble? How often do we put off doing something simple that means so much to someone else, rather waiting for a distant time that may never come? Why not do something like that today for someone you love?
