I went to a funeral last night. DJ was my friend and business partner and he was only 55 when he died.
As I thought about DJ and what he meant to me, I thought about how much he loved people. He was a great listener, always upbeat, always willing to help.
More than anything, DJ liked to have fun. Having fun was his rai·son d’ê·tre. No matter what he was doing, he did it with gusto.
When we went to dinner with DJ, he had the peculiar habit of ordering and eating dessert first. He said he didn’t want to miss the best part of the meal.
Eat dessert first. Enjoy life while you still have it.
Stephen King said, “Ask yourself frequently, “Am I having fun?†The answer needn’t always be yes. But if it’s always no, it’s time for a new project or a new career.”
I’m going to ask myself that question more often because life is short and it passes quickly.
