Most college students think of themselves as being invincible. Nothing bad will ever happen, nothing could ever hurt them and there is certainly no chance that any of them will ever die.
Unfortunately, though we all may think that we are immortal it is far from the truth. We can’t always control whether or not something bad is going to happen. People get hurt, or sick and sometimes they don’t even make it through.
Being young and feeling invincible is no excuse to not appreciate what you have. Enjoying everyday and being thankful for all of the things — especially the people around you — is important.


Today more than 80 teams will walk the Kibbie Dome track for Relay for Life. Relay for Life is an event to celebrate survivors, remember those lost and fight back against cancer. Teams will literally walk through the night to fight against the disease.
For the most part, cancer is not something that can be easily prevented, but everyone should be conscious of his or her health. Take care of yourself and others around you and most of all remember to stop and enjoy life.


There is no way of knowing how much time anyone has left so coasting through life without enjoying it isn’t an option.
Take care of yourself, take care of your friends and take care of your family. No matter what you will be glad that you did. Tell everyone you know that you love them, even your friends, because there might be a time when you wish you had.
The semester is quickly coming to a close and life can become a whirlwind at times, so stop, take a deep breath and enjoy what you have.
