Legacy...

The Journey through Life is more important than the destination of Death.....

From the moment we are born, we are heading towards our death......but this journey towards it is called Life. From the moment of our birth, we sail on, heedless of the scritching of life's pen upon the parchment of our experience.

Yet it is the Journey which endures. When you think on a loved one who has passed, what do you see? Usually, we see a memory which involves them. We see them through the action of their life. Through the action of their Journey. We rarely see the destinations.

So our Journey through Life impacts all those around us to a greater or lesser extent. Have you heard the tale of the faithful dog, who after their master dies, sits and howls or lays next to the tombstone? Why would this be? Because the Journey of the master has impacted the life of the faithful dog, deeply and intimately. And people wonder if animals have emotion. An entirely wrong question to ask.

So your journey through Life affects EVERYTHING around you. You pass through the air. You eat. You sleep. You excrete. You interact with objects and creatures, places and ideas which you may have little heed of in the bustling Journey of your Life. But each is important.

And with each interaction, an exchange is made, between you and whatever/whomever you interact with, from the lowliest crawly creature to the love of your life.

So, to those who say one person can not make a difference; To those people who say what is important in only what YOU take away from an experience.....I say Bahh! Stop deluding yourself! Stop being self centered! It's not all about you! Realize that an interaction requires two, count them, TWO energies to create said interaction. That which you interact with ALSO takes away something.

Don't sell yourself short. You make a difference every day. Just by being. Accept it. Acknowledge it. Enjoy it. And keep it Sacred.

That is how you make a difference.
