We’re all important in different and various ways

But we shouldn’t ever get to caught up in our own significance or self-importance

Whatever we believe, we are transient

Whatever pigeon hole, box or compartment of our lives, we are transient

Friends, strong friends, we may bump into but rarely do we seek or be sought out with any regularity

We hear ourselves say “we should do this more often” but we rarely do

We are all guilty

Work environments, once left, people quickly fade

An acknowledgement that the world moves on

Quite rightly so

We are transient

Even with families, that most permanent of connections, time erodes any permanence 

Most can remember our parents and even grandparents but how much beyond that

We are all of us, transient

Our lives are relatively short, for most our legacy is even shorter

Very few people have any form of permanence in history

This doesn’t mean we are irrelevant 

To the contrary

We can be important and influential in a number of ways

It’s important to remember 

Who you are           What you are          How you are

Be true to yourself but know life for what it is 

In not so many years, no one will know any of this
