Spirit, remind me when I get off track. Remind me of my values. Remind me of what has great meaning in my life. Remind me that those are the important things.

May it be so.

When you get to the end of your life,
Your heart and breath slowing to a crawl,
The door slightly ajar for family and loved ones to appear
What will matter most?

Will your internet “friends” sit beside you
As you struggle to speak?
Will they hold your hand, clicking “likes” as you laugh or cry?
Will their words fill your heart and soul?
What will matter most?

Will all the selfies you took be a left legacy?
Will the cash in your account breathe new life into your lungs?
Will you be able to say, “You have made me what I am today?”
Filling your soul with peace…
