Some time from when you are reading this, our generations will have died away.
Now think back a moment to the earlier forms of man. They left traces behind whether it be pottery, art, tools, writing etc. Archaeologists in later years discovered these and have led the present generations to learn a lot from the past.
Now fast forward. We are long gone and one with the earth. Our souls have moved onward. The future generations are now the present generations. How will they remember us.
We need to set a footprint in the sand and be able to say this is our footprint. This is how we lived. This is the way we walked. Often times we find ourselves living in the today and almost getting lost in it. I'm not saying live for the future (Take things day by day). I'm saying 'leave your mark while we are alive and kicking.' Years from now when we find ourselves fading away, we will not be able to tell the story the way it is acted out. We must tell the story while we are acting it out.
Someday, someone may come across your story and say 'hey this person had something to say' and could possibly take a lot out of it.
Even if you tell your story to your neighbor or friend tomorrow, it will still be important.
What I'm saying is 'Write it down!'
Write while you still have time because when someone stumbles over it tomorrow or in a hundred years, it will still have meaning and can still leave a deep impact on someone.
God bless
Be warrior poets and keep on writin' and fightin'
