If Today Should Be Your Last

I wrote this for a reason. Life can be so hard at times, but no matter how tough it is someone's struggle will always be greater than mine. Today matters. Make the best of it.

 If Today Should Be Your Last

 
Live this day like it could
be your last,
when opportunity comes
don't let it pass.
If someone you know
needs a listening ear,
give them yours
and be sincere.
Take a chance
don't be afraid,
you only live once,
make the most of today.
You're a beacon of light 
created with love,
one of a kind
a gift from above.
There's good and bad,
right and wrong,
know the difference,
as you journey along.
If today should be your last
each minute celebrate,
treasure every second
never hesitate.
Say what you have 
to say love with all you are,
no regrets, you've 
done your best and
tonight you'll earn your star.

You are so right. One should never be too busy to help. You never know when you may be the one needing help and find that everyone is too busy.
