Wisdoms from the Journey - Vol IV (Nov 2011 thru Apr 2012)

And when we do finally depart, we will take absolutely nothing with us; not
even the “fun we had”; not even our “greatest success”; not even the personal
identities we have so finely honed over the many weeks & months & years since
our birth.
Will our “Souls” live forever? Possibly so … And yet one thing is for
sure: “You” as you know “You” today will not be making that journey.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand ……. THIS IS A VERY GOOD THING!
You see, it is THIS Truth is what makes every moment of THIS life
priceless … It is THIS Truth that makes every selfless act a deed of true Power …
And it is THIS Truth that has every conscious moment literally overflowing with
amazing Beauty … If only we would pause to notice those miracles; if only we
would reach out to do those Kind deeds.
So, my Friends, let’s avoid saying that we are going to serve our
communities tomorrow … that tomorrow we will be Kind to a stranger … that
tomorrow we will forgive an enemy … that tomorrow we will give past the point
of comfort.
Why wait for tomorrow?
… For tomorrow truly never comes.
Why not now?
“‘The story of my recent life’ makes more sense to me than ‘the story of my
life’, because we each get so many lives between birth and death -- a life to be a
child; a life to come of age; a life to wander, to settle, to fall in love, to parent, to
test our promise, to realize our mortality – and in some lucky cases, to do
something even after that profound realization.” ~ inspired by Mitch Albom
“Wherever you go,
go with all your Heart.”
