[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 1580618, member: 4674"] At what age do we realize we will never be able to accomplish and finish the projects that we laid out. I am getting to the age that I think about it a lot. Things that come to mind is what have I accomplished and why did I accomplish what I did and did it benefit me greatly or not. I realize I am but a tiny speck in this world and realize that I can be here one day and gone the next. Has the world and peoples lives benefited by me being born and being part of it? To deep for my mortal mind to comprehend. How many years will it take for people I know and knew me not remember my existence at all. Will any one visit my grave and remember me on that thought, who knows and who cares. On these thoughts I remember a story about a man that died. This man was being discussed on what he was and what he accomplished by the group at the feed store and had come to the conclusion that they could not come up with anything of value to say about him. Joe Blow walked in and they asked him about the man and was there any thing he could think of that was great about him. Joe thought about it for a few minutes and He said that the man was the best whistler he every heard. [/QUOTE]
