Have reserves

If you have a few minutes, I invite you to watch this uplifting video by a wise woman named Dee: https://youtu.be/p1x_h5xkRDk?si=Es1-MvEN4HEPHM3E

Dee has given us a lot to ponder today and so I end this post with the poem that she read at the beginning of her video...

"Dust if you must" by Rose Milligan

Dust if you must, but wouldn’t it be better 
To paint a picture, or write a letter,
Bake a cake, or plant a seed;
Ponder the difference between want and need?

Dust if you must, but there’s not much time,
With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb;
Music to hear, and books to read;
Friends to cherish, and a life to lead.

Dust if you must, but the world’s out there 
With the sun in your eyes, and the wind in your hair;
A flutter of snow, a shower of rain,
This day will not come round again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it’s not kind.
And when you go (and go you must)
You, yourself, will make more dust.
