HOW DO WE MEASURE OUR LIVES?

I measure my life by how much love I feel.
In the end love is the every, only God and all that matters.
Material things don't matter for a half second.
Fame and fortune count as nothing.
What do we take with us when we go?
Only the growth of our soul and the love in our hearts.

Did we contribute to the evolution of mankind?
Did we help consciousness become more spiritual?
Did we reach out to those less fortunate?
Do these questions seem trite?
They are repeated often because they are so universally true.

We will be remembered for who we were, not what we owned.
What we gave, not what we managed to take.
Did we forgive much that we may be forgiven much?
These are the things that count forever and make us whole.
