TODAY IN CHURCH MY NEIGHBOR PUT FORTH AN INTERESTING THOUGHT IN HER TALK ABOUT WE ARE ALL LIVING ON THE "-" IN OUR LIVES....YOU KNOW YOUR GRAVE HAS A HEAD STONE WITH THE DATE OF BIRTH AND.........YOUR DEATH DATE WITH A DASH (-) IN BETWEEN THEM........AND WE ARE ALL ON THAT LITTLE - AT THIS TIME.....WHAT WILL BE REMEMBERED ABOUT US DURING THOSE YEARS BETWEEN THOSE TWO DATES?????GOOD? BAD? NO ONE EVEN THERE TO REMEMBER US???? SOME GLAD WE ARE GONE.......SOME SAD? I HOPE MY DASH BRINGS FORTH MANY FUN MEMORIES FOR MY FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS.......OH YES, AND SOME OF MY FAMILY!!!!! I AM NOT IMPORTANT....FAMOUS......WELL KNOWN......OR CARED FOR.....BUT I HAVE......ALWAYS.......TRIED TO BE THE BEST OF THE BEST I CAN BE....... DAUGHTER.....BIG SISTER.....WIFE.....MOTHER....GRANDMA....FRIEND.....NEIGHBOR.....AND TO LOVE GOD WITH ALL MY HEART AND PLEASE HIM.....
I GUESS I NEVER REALIZED HOW IMPORTANT THAT LITTLE "-" IN OUR LIFE IS......
