It doesn't matter what kind of car you drove
or what clothes you wore.
No one remembers....
How big your house was
or how full you wallet could get.
Regardless of all the petty fights and disagreements...
it is all lost in the sorrow that has come with your loss.
You no longer recall the stupid things that made you cool.
Its only about the laughter and faded memories.
The hearts that you touched in the short time frame you were put here.
Be it eighteen years or eighty...
it would never be enough.
So does it all really matter?
Society has a strange way of making us think it does.
Who knows why?
Many people go their whole life not realizing what a legacy really is
or that an inheritance is not of monetary value.
Instead it is pesky little things we take for granted everyday of our lives...
the lessons we have learned...
and the time we cherrish with our loved ones.
That, my friend, is what it is all about because
regardless of everything...
Everyone dies alone.

Jenny, honey, we are never alone, even when we die. Our life spirits are with us every moment. No one ever has to be alone unless they choose to be. I do agree that societal values are way off, but emotions are ours to make and fulfill and live with. We must just love our familes and friends and realize they are with us, in spirit, and so are our universal spirits. Never never alone.
Much love,
Rita

And once we pass on to a much greater place, none of this world will matter to us. We will be in the limelight of heaven.
Full of wisdom, this write..
*****Be it eighteen years or eighty...
it would never be enough.
This is truth. Never enough time. Recalling when I was a little girl playing outside, not wanting to come into the house. There never was enough time, joy spent in one day, and I wanted more and more and more.
Soon, its time to come in from play..
I find a lot of life in cemetaries. I love to go there to visit. To stand on the ground where I know God stands with me as He cares for all of His children, walking above the ground or merely lying below.
We come in this world alone as well. Even though people are there when we arrive and when we go, we are all by ourself doing what we do.
I just pray that doctors will not force a child to be born. Let it come to the world on its own. And go out gracefully on its own.
Your write gave me a tick. Sort of like a see, I told you.. aha...
So, when you purchase a new house or car, buy new clothes, grab the groceries, just enjoy it well, because where you are going is not going to matter for what we had. I don't believe that when I stand before my Father in heaven, that he is going to ask me what my occupation was here on earth either lol.
Yes this write has the sense of self sacrifice to be shaped from the outside world. Our so called needs and wants..
Very subjective.. personal viewpoints of your world from the objective outside world we live in... Thank you..
