Regarding Tiffany Cumbo

This paper, which I wrote when I was 18 years old, tells a story about a boy, that's me, meeting a girl, Tiffany Cumbo, based on a true story. I met her in the neighborhood I grew up in way back in like the early 1990's. I'm thinking possibly in 1990 and probably in 1992 at the latest. She died Saturday morning, the 5th of April of 2003 in Oregon, USA.

Don't regret Life.

Don't get distracted by the real treasures in life. Make time for people as they are truly priceless and you can't get time back within the mortal realm.

Be present.

Too often we wish to be where we are not and we fail to be present and in the moment. That is when we miss out. We can become too lost in the past and in the future. The best gift you can give yourself is the present. That is a present. Be in the moment. Be in the present. It is the best present or gift you can get yourself. This is a timeless wisdom to live by, thanks turtle from the third animated Kung Fu Panda film.
