Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 irrelevance. It will not matter what we owned or what we were owed. Our grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies too will finally disappear. Ans so too, will our hopes....ambitions.....plans....and to-do lists expire. The wins and losses that once seemed so important will fade away. At the end......it will not matter where we came from..... or on what side of the tracks we lived. It will not matter whether we were beautiful or brilliant. Even our gender and skin colour will be irrelevant. So.... what will matter? How will the value of our days be measured? What will matter is not what we bought, but what we built... Not what we got, but what we gave. What will matter is not our success.....but our significance. What will matter is not what we learned.....but what we taught. What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion, courage or sacrifice that enriched, empowered or encouraged others to live a better life. What will matter, is not our competence.....but our character. What will matter, is not how many people we knew.....but how many will feel a lasting loss when we're gone. What will matter, is not our memories..... but the memories that live in those who loved us. What will matter is how long we will be remembered....by whom and for what. Living a life that matters does NOT happen by accident. It is not a matter of circumstance but of choice.So dear brothers and sisters....now is the moment.... Let us choose to live a life that matters! Remain Blessed! Duty is God, Work is Worship for Good - Make a difference this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
