    Default You never know when your time's up

    Found out a coworker of mine passed away today.

    He was working and wouldn't answer his cell phone. They sent someone to check on him and found him on the ground beside his company truck. Dead.

    He was only 25 years old and seemingly in really good health. In fact, I always saw him eating healthy stuff and he competed in fitness contests.

    Just thought I'd post this as a friendly reminder that you really never know when it could all come to an end. So live each day to the fullest, cherish the people and things you have in your life, and go for what you want because tomorrow may be too late.

    Take care and stay safe everyone.

    Sorry to hear that man. I recently had a similar reminder to live life to the fullest.
    I don't make the rules. I just think them up and write them down.

    Keep us updated if you find out more. Have had a few similar experiences in my life. It's an odd feeling for sure.

    Sorry for your loss Ray. And too his family too. I'm also curious as to what happened. I get caught up in a lot of petty shit from day to day. I don't step back enough and look at what I have , and be happy to be around.

    25 years old- that's so sad! I'm sorry for your shock, and I appreciate your reminder.

    Man 25 that's crazy, sorry to hear about the bad news. Prayers for his family. Good reminder to all of us, it can all be over in a blink of an eye.
