The Dash Between

Between the date when we arrive and the date we go away, there exists a horizontal line that captures every single day.

And because these days we're living seem to vanish in a flash, we need to make the most of that special little dash.

We are blessed with opportunities as we tread the grounds of earth to build the loving legacy our own dash will be worth.

To focus on what matters, not on things we've owned or bought. And smile every chance we get, and love with all we've got.

For the duties of our daily life — the job, the house, the cash affect the way we get to live our only little dash.

So, appreciate the here and now as each moment will unfold because we're never told beforehand how much time our dash will hold.

Don't spend this time with worries, bitterness and fear. The future may be uncertain, but right now, your dash is here.

If you need to make some changes, let this be the day you start — to make a difference with your life, show the love that's in your heart.

For how you spend this life will someday be defined by everything that is remembered in the dash you leave behind.
