A message to my friends and family----I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of his friend He referred to the dates on his tombstone from the beginning to the end.He noted that first came the dates of his birth and spoke of the second with tears, but said that what mattered the most was the DASH between the years.For the dash represents all the time that he spent alive on earth, and now only those that loved him know what that little line is worth.For it matters not, how much we own; the cars, the house, the cash. What matters is how we live our live and love and how we spent our dash.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 what's real , and always try to understand how other people feel.AND...be less quick to anger and show appreciation more and love people in our lives like we've never loved before.If we treat each other with respect, and more often wear a smile, remembering that our 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 how you spent your DASH??HEY MAN I AM TALKING TO YOU
