"If I were to die tonight,I hope I left the world more bright.
I hope I smiled at a child.
I hope my work was truly worthwhile.
Is the world better because of me?
In my own potential did I see?
By just holding my lover's hand could amazing love I make?
Could I survive severe heartbreak?
When I saw wrong did I do right?
To have the courage not to run but to fight?
Did I laugh and cry with friends?
Did I live, up to the very end?
If I were to die tonight.....
did I burn bright and for my children leave light?"

How I want to be remembered…..
When asked what I wanted my tombstone to read, I realized I didn’t want one. It’s not that I don’t want to be remembered, but a few words on a piece of cement don’t seem right. I would like to be scattered in the wind and remembered in the following ways.
Remember me as…
**You see my husband smile
**You hear my children laugh
**Your friend
**A wannabe “ triathlete”
Remember me when you…
** see the first glint of sun on a still lake in the early morning
** hear the song of bike tires on the road
** realize the journey of a run is better than crossing the finish line
** see the twinkling stars on a very still,, brisk winter night
** smell the first wood fire in Autumn
**have a piece of pie. Nibble on the crust, and remember that where pie is concerned, what is on the outside does matter
you are amazing and i am glad that you told me about these postings and i am glad that you are still alive!!
it was great to talk to you today!!!
don't forget levity---the boy in the tub--and the workouts!!!
starts with your thoughts, always.
love to you and yours over the holidays.
After all those sub's., I now know how a foster child feels.
