That was a wonderful post. Wouldn't we all love to be the kind of person that leaves such a mark when we meet someone?
I asked my sister who is 10 years younger (30-something) this evening: If you could start all over and it's just you, what kind of life would you create?
She said she honestly didn't know. But, that's really where I am. My kids are mostly grown (23 and 18) and no one needs me to "be here" every evening. I fix dinner, it's always at 6, no one shows up. So, what kind of life do I want to create?
I think I'll take your friends advice and see who I would want to be!
Hugs, sun
