Live a life that will matter
Ready or not someday it will all come to an end.
There will be no more sunrises no minutes hours or days.
All the things you collected, whether treasured or forgotten, will pass
to someone else.
Your wealth, fame, and temporal power will shrivel to irrelevance.
It will not matter what u owned or what you were owed.
Your grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies will finally disappear.
So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans, and to do lists will expire.
The wins and losses that once seemed to important will fade away.
It wont matter where you came from, or on what side of the tracks you lived, At the end.
It wont matter whether you were beautiful or brilliant
Even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant.
So what will matter? How will the value of your days be measured?
is not your success but your significance.
What will matter is not what you bought, but what you built; not what
you got, but what you gave.
What will matter is not your success, but your significance.
What will matter is not what you learned, but what you taught.
What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion, courage or sacrifice that enriched, empowered or encouraged others to emulate your example.
What will matter is not your competence, but your character.
What will matter is not how many people you knew, but how many will
feel a lasting loss when you're gone.
What will matter is not your memories, but the memories that live in those who loved you.
What will matter is how long you will be remembered, by whom and for what.
Living a life that matters doesn't happen by accident Its not a matter of
circumstance but of choice.
Choose to live a life that matters
