2007 IS ALMOST OVER and FOR 2008; WHAT WILL MATTER

[Lani]

WHAT WILL MATTER



Ready or not,
Someday it will come to an end.

There will be no more sunrises,
no minutes, hours or days.

All the things you collected,
whether treasured or forgotten,
will pass to someone else.

Your wealth,
fame and temporal power
will shrivel to irrelevance.

It will not matter what you owned
or what you were owed.

Your grudges, resentments, frustrations,
and jealousies will finally disappear

So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans
and to do list will expire.

The wins and losses
that once seemed so important
will fade away.

It won't matter where you came from,
or on what side of the tracks you lived,
at the end.

It won't matter whether you were beautiful or brilliant.

Even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant.

So what will matter?
How will the value of your days be measured?

What will matter is not what you bought,
but what you built;
not what you got,
but what you gave?

What will matter is not what you learned,
but what you taught.

What will matter is not your competence,
but your character.

What will matter is not how many people you knew,
but how many will feel a lasting loss when you're gone.

What will matter is not your memories,
but the memories that live in those who loved you.

What will matter is how long you will be remembered.
by whom and for what?

Living a life that matters doesn't happen by accident.
It's not a matter of circumstances but of choice.

CHOOSE TO LIVE A LIFE THAT MATTERS.


So it doesn't matter to me whether i will bore some members here, by posting irrelevant thread in this forum and which ( for me ) is also a social network. what matters is I want to share the spirit of this Holiday Season! to each and everyone here.

So, to all of you wonderful people here (no labels needed OR necessary, as we are all a part of this wonderful celebration, after all we are someone else's DAUGHTER'S, SON'S, HUSBAND'S, WIFE'S, A PARTNER OR A MOTHER, A FATHER, A BROTHER AND OR A SISTER, A FRIEND, but most of all we are an individual, we deserves to choose the life we have chosen and for us, that's really what MATTERS.

To All The Members and Management and Staff of this Social (and sexual) Network,

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR!!!

Thank you jenllani.

Your illuminating thoughts today are much appreciated by me, and are worth remembering, hopefully by all of us.

May I in turn, at this beautiful season, extend my BEST WISHES to you, and to all other members of this forum as well.

Thanks Toban! MY BEST WISHES TO YOU TOO! You are one of the reason ( member ) why this forum is still enticing for me to come back to, as well as other Gentlemen and Ladies here who by their own sense of fairness and good nature and voice of reasons, makes this forum still a worthwhile means of interactions (not only in terms of the sexuality) and also for the management's adroit way of dealing with the numerous squabbles here, I commend them for those abilities, which is really hard to do.

AND SO TO ALL OF YOU CHEERS! FOR A MORE VIBRANT AND COLORFUL HOLIDAY SEASON! AND HOPEFULLY, LESS PERSONAL ATTACKS AGAINST EACH OTHER IN THIS FORUM.

Biboy (Dancing King and Partner lol) thank you! I had a wonderful time last thursday too! btw. If you missed Todd announcement, it was my last barrel dance, why? coz, my equilibrium isn't what it used to be. and I have a feeling now that I might fall from that barrel sooner than later LOL! I have enjoyed doing the gig, but now I'll just dance on their dancing floor, hopefully you'll be there so I'll have a partner lol. It's time for me to go back on reading books, and concentrate on my singing live or otherwise and also Ballroom Dancing which I really really love. HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS YOU ALL!!!!!
