.If I died today My obituary Would say… Dedicated man Family man Showed up consistently Tried his best Loving husband, father, teacher. Loving son, brother, uncle. A man with a good heart. Is this it? Was there depth? Excitement? Adventure??? Where was Joy? Laughter. Big love. Adoration and admiration. The humble service to others. A gift fully given?!? The big love, fierce love??? There’s got to be more! Build that business, man! Write that book! Create that art! Live FULLY Love openly Make a god **** difference! Instead; He loved until empty Died to the giving Heart left wide open Pouring out… Pouring in. The hand of God on his shoulder The peace and joy of a good life. The tears that fall Both sadness and joy For all the life That passed through him. Friends, family, change. Experiences worth more than the effort behind them. All worth every bit On this earthly incarnation.
