A thought........................................

I read of a priest who stood to speak at a funeral of a friend! He referred to the dashes on her stone from the beginning---to end. He noted that first came the date of her birth, spoke of following date with tears, but he said what mattered most of all was the dash between these years. For that dash represents all the time she spent alive on earth, now only those who loved her know what that little line is worth.

For it matters not how much we own; the cars, the house, the cash. So think about this long and hard, are there things you'd like to change? For you never know how much time is left. You could be at "dash mid-range." If we could just slow down enough to consider what's true and real, always try to understand the way other people feel. And he less quick to anger, show appreciation more and love the people in our lives like we've never loved before. If we treat each other with respect, more often wear a smile, remembering that this special dash might only last a little while. So, when your eulogy is being read with your life's actions to rehash---would you be pleased with the things they say about how you spent your dash.
