Footprint By Kelly embedded in earth now a trail left to follow unfound, washed away ~Kellsue Reflect upon your present blessings-of which every man has many-not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. ~Charles Dickens We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~Winston Churchill |

Those three lines say alot, first of all we all want to leave a mark in this work make a footprint and be remembered for something (maybe I am just talking for myself here), but history is like the sea washing and cleansing/fading the past. Though if we walk a good path our children will follow our footprints. A fantastic poem, you have got me thinking, but I will stop before I start ranting  |
