Something for us all to think about in the following week ahead.

*To Be Remembered* How do you want to be remembered? What do you want to leave behind? Will it be the sound of your laughter? On a rainy day in September? Or when cryin’ babies, you don’t mind? How about the travels you’ve been on? Your face it glows of days long gone, Stories told, yes they unfold Every detail shared like shiny gold. How do you want to be remembered? What will others say of you? Were you the class clown of your youth? Or maybe you lived by God’s truth. Your gentle spirit and hands on those That’s what your caring heart chose. Giving up your time to do Charity work it became a part of you Oh, this precious gift you did not lose. How do you want to be remembered? Or do you want to be remembered at all? Were you the one who so slumbered While others worked, took heed to the call? Every man, woman and child Will leave their mark behind, For some it is very mild and meek And for others it is their character so wild. Copyright© 2010 All Rights Reserved – Dorothy Krusky Author

This is something I think we all must think about. Thank you for bringing it to the surface. I've so often thought about this and can't come up with answer. Fantastic write.

A great Thinking poem. It gives one pause to reflect on what they are doing and accomplising in life. We only go this way once , so why not be the best we can be! Some want to leave something of them selves to be rememberd by. Others don't think about it very much at all..........M

To be remembered is a wonderful thing, a loving mother or a there for a friend in need, such things are noble a deed. To make someone laugh when blue is a gift only a few ever use.

I GUESS I JUST WANT TO BE REMEMBERED AS A CHILD OF GOD...WITH ALL MY GOOD AND BAD POINTS, WITH ALL THE THINGS I DID WRONG AND ALL THE THINGS I DID RIGHT...I TRIED. A WONDERFUL, THOUGHT PROVOKING WORK THAT IS DONE WELL. THANKS FOR SHARING AND LOVE,
