I read of ...The Dash<br />by Linda Ellis copyright 1996<br /><br />I read of a man who stood to speak<br />at the funeral of a friend.<br />He referred to the dates on the tombstone<br />from the beginning…to the end.<br /><br />He noted that first came the date of birth<br />and spoke the following date with tears,<br />but he said what mattered most of all<br />was the dash between those years.<br /><br />For that dash represents all the time<br />that they spent alive on earth.<br />And now only those who loved them<br />know what that little line is worth.<br /><br />For it matters not, how much we own,<br />the cars…the house…the cash.<br />What matters is how we live and love<br />and how we spend our dash.<br /><br />So, think about this long and hard.<br />Are there things you’d like to change?<br />For you never know how much time is left<br />that can still be rearranged.<br /><br />If we could just slow down enough<br />to consider what’s true and real<br />and always try to understand<br />the way other people feel.<br /><br />And be less quick to anger<br />and show appreciation more<br />and love the people in our lives<br />like we’ve never loved before. <br /><br />If we treat each other with respect<br />and more often wear a smile,<br />remembering that this special dash<br />might only last a little while.<br /><br />So, when your eulogy is being read,<br />with your life’s actions to rehash…<br />would you be proud of the things they say<br />about how you spent YOUR dash?<br /><br />Copyright 1996 Linda Ellis<br />ALL RIGHTS RESERVED<br />Please feel free to RECITE it anywhere at any time.

I hope you will find some comfort and strength in Jesus promise of the earthly resurrection(Acts 24:15)when he will awaken those who are sleeping in death and restoring them back to life on the renewed Paradise earth, where death will be no more and no family will mourn the death of a loved one.-Revelation 21:3,4; John 5:28,29; Luke 23:43. Until that glorious time when. you are reunited with your loved one again; may GOD(Psalms 83:18)grant you peace and comfort now, during this grievous time.-Matthew 5:4.<br />M Jonesnoreply@blogger.com
