The Icing on the Cake!

"The Icing on the Cake"
Many of us have used this phrase before in conversation.
It signifies something wonderful at the end of something good or even an extra benefit! I've done a lot of thinking lately about those "little extras!" The things that are oh so wonderful that simply do give an extra benefit to our lives. And it really made me think. It's the thing that makes us laugh and the thing that makes us cry. It's our conscience that gives us advice. It's about taking chances, and it's about having faith. It's about letting go and giving more.

A preacher recently stated that upon your final days when you are looking into the eyes of the one you loved and shared your days with, your thoughts will not be of a promotion that lead you astray 20 years ago or the expensive house/car you were never able to buy. Your thoughts will simply be of the moments you shared with those you love.

We all have our own "icing on the cake." What's yours?
