How do you live your dash?
I read of a pastor who stood to speak
At the funeral of his friend.
He referred to the dates of his tombstone
From the beginning to the end
He noted that first came the date of his birth,
and spoke of the second date with tears,
but he said what mattered most of all
was the dash between those years.
For that dash represents all time
That he spent alive on earth
And now only those who loved him
know what that dash was worth.
For it matters not how much we own'
The cars, the house, the cash.
What matters most is how we live,
And how we spend our dash
So think about this long and hard,
Are there things you'd like to change
For you never know what time is left;
"You could be at
dash,mid-range."
If we could just slow down enough ,
To see what's true and real,
And always try to understand
The way that others feel,
And be less quick to anger,
And show appreciation more,
And love the people in our lives
Like we've never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect,
And more often wear a smile,
keeping in mind this special dash
might last but a little while.
So when your eulogy's being read,
Your life's actions to rehash,
would you smile at the things being said
About how you spent your dash?
Hey guys just to let you know i didn't write this poem. The writer was anonymous. I thought it was a beautiful poem so i though i'd post it. I really liked it. I am abou to go watch this play. UGH. But it shouldn't be so bad i guess it's like a teenage novel literally. It's title was something like "the Bratty girl"
so you can see it even sounds like it
lol
ttyl
will tell you how it was later.
