5-year-old Sadie Miller just made a discovery about her baby brother, and she isn’t taking it well at all.
The discovery: her brother would one day grow up and no longer be a cute, tiny baby. We all cope with the inevitability of change in different ways and sooner or later, we all realize that we are one day destined to die. Dying is just a natural part of living.
Yet, we get by with these truths in different ways. For example, a 50-year-old man coming to terms with this realization might cope by buying a sports car and dating a younger woman. Sadie Miller dealt with it by throwing a temper tantrum fit for a child with the mature realizations of an adult.
“I don’t want to die when I’m a hundred,” the child wails as she looks at her baby brother.
I’m assuming this is the first time Sadie has dealt with the unavoidability of change,but it certainly won’t be the last. Sorry, cookie, but this is life. We flower and then was fade. God allows the lucky ones a hundred short years in the sun followed by an infinite period of mystery.
The most we can do with that time is live life to the fullest. We can travel the world, love with all our hearts, sing, dance, and savor what short time we have. Or we can cry about it…but that’s no way to live.
If you believe life is a precious gift and if you value the short span of time you’ve been given, please SHARE this adorable video with friends and remind them of the value of time too.
