"thankful for the day"

this was my friend Wade's last FB status.  Received the news this morning, that he joined Heaven's band of Angels at the age of 34 of an apparent heart attack.  Knowing Wade, he's already hooked up with Chris Farley to trade "van down by the river" jokes and is enjoying the endless supply of bacon.

this is what his "about me" section of FB says

""The Lord has told you what is good, and this is what He requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God." ~ Micah 6:7,8 (NLT)

I wasn't like every other kid, you know, who dreams about being an astronaut, I was always more interested in what bark was made out of on a tree. Richard Gere's a real hero of mine. Sting. Sting would be another person who's a hero. The music he's created over the years, I don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, I respect that. I care desperately about what I do. Do I know what product I'm selling? No. Do I know what I'm doing today? No. But I'm here, and I'm gonna give it my best shot."
