the measure of a life

Life should not be measured by how much money one makes.  Life should not be measured by how attractive a person is or isn't.

Life should be measured by kindness.

Who will meet you when you get to heaven?  Sure, Jesus and St. Peter, but who else?  I hope that you are met by every dog, every cat and every person that you showed kindness to in this life.  Imagine the scene... a lifetime of cats [12] a lifetime of dogs [4] and a lifetime of people that you were kind to, all lined up for a hug!

It is not too late to increase your welcome party.  I am not suggesting that you go get more pets, but that we all show love to every person that we can.  I am hopeful, I am confident that a big crowd will be waiting for you when you cross over the river.

What a beautiful scene.  What a beautiful life.  And you created it, one person, one encounter, one love at a time.

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
