Saving for a rainy day
Life is short, even at its longest.
Few of us know how long we have to make our mark on the world. Yes we hear the stories of Colonel Sanders and Ray Kroc who made their fortunes later on in life and then lived a long enough life after to enjoy seeing their success become stratospheric. But what of those who are taken too early? The tornado victims. Those killed and injured at the Boston Marathon, and every single road crash victim we could all name. Every single one of them - taken too soon.
But today I would like to share with you a heart breaking inspirational story - of a young man who found out at the age of 14 that he didn't have too many years to live. But what he created in those few years is "wondtastic"
Zachary Sobiech died just 2 days ago of osteosarcoma - I hope his story and that of his family and girlfriend, and the musicians who took the song he wrote for his family "clouds" and turned it into something they will always have to remember him by. The money the song will raise - will help those who are also going through the same, to hopefully live a long and happy life.
Zach you are a legend.
P.s. you will need tissues - lots of them.

Don't save anything for a rainy day
We don't know how many rainy days we have left
