Go visit your loved ones
I don’t normally write too much personal stuff on the blog and try to keep it photography-focused. But I have had some time to think, on the long long drive home from Lansing, MI this past weekend. My brother called me Saturday night at around 10 pm to tell me that our grandfather had passed away. It was one of those things that was expected at some point, but this was pretty sudden considering my grandma had emailed a week ago saying he was doing great. (He had bad alzheimer’s and had gotten fairly frail… definitely not the strong retired oil tank driver that we all remember). The one thing I regret is that I hadn’t been up to visit since September… we had planned on it in January but they had a huge snowstorm and travel wasn’t advised.
After that, we just got too busy this weekend, and too busy that weekend. And now… it’s too late to visit, and all there is left are some ashes and memories. So everyone reading this… just a thought for today… life can change in an instant, don’t put off what you should be doing today. If you haven’t gone to visit someone you care about… don’t have any regrets, go visit them. (and if they wonder why you’re visiting them, just tell them Dianna told you to 
)
