What will people write on your tombstone one day?  That is determined by what we do in the dash between our birth and death.  Let's make every day count and give our lives to what really matters.  There are no moving trucks in a funeral procession.  In the end, it's about our relationship with Jesus, our family and those God has uses us to impact and help.
