There are 5-minute people in your life,

there are 5-day people in your life, and

there are 20-year people in your life.

Acknowledge that the time we spend with people is mostly limited. Often, we cannot predict how much time we will spend together. But what we can do is recognize that our time with them is finite.

Treat them with that awareness. Ask them the questions you are curious about. Learn from them as if they might leave tomorrow. Share with them the things you’d like them to know. Create memories that will outlast time, and offer them kindness when they least expect it.

But don’t, don’t take their presence for granted. They could be gone tomorrow already.

Cherish.
