    I'm so sorry to hear about your friend Peter. You are absolutely right. My best friend Joel passed away last year in a tragic car accident. He was doing so much better in life (he had a lot of medical issues) and was planning this big trip in a couple weeks. He was like a brother (I have 3). I was putting off going back home (Canada) for several years to see him and thought because of COVID I'll just wait until restrictions were less complicated. Like you said, time doesn't wait for anyone and anything can happen at any moment. We can't wait for the "perfect moment" to do something... Whatever you are waiting on, you just have to pull the trigger, as we don't know what's around the corner...for better or for worse. RIP Joel (and Peter), I'll never forget the impact you had on my life. Thanks again for sharing Miri!

But ultimately, you can get lost in that type of mindset by not enjoying the process or by not experiencing other things - occupational balance is key! We must enjoy every present moment that we have with our friends, family, and clients... As we never know what awaits tomorrow. Keep it up Miri, you've been such a positive force for so many :)
