"One day you will ask me which is more important?
My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk
away not knowing that you are my life.
Khalil Gibran
The interior of life greatly differs from one person to the next. We have our own memories, and even shared memories are recorded differently. There are family histories we hold within, but they too have been altered over time.
Our inner strength is impacted by how we perceive physical challenges, mental limitations, and spiritual disconnect. Efforts are made to maintain momentum moving forward, but forces distract us from our guided path. When it is all said and done and life is slipping away, what will remain in our heart?
Family members and children rank highly in our last thoughts, and perhaps an image of a favorite vacation. Beauty, art, talent might rise, but what will be exceptionally significant? For me, those who have been book marks in the many chapters of my life will prevail ... and sadly, probably unbeknownst to them.
