 Let’s Leave Our Memory As Legacy

Anita's Perspectives on Life

In the journey of life, we sail along,

Meeting people, some short, some long.

  Some leave footprints, in our hearts,

  While some depart, tearing us apart.

Their memories stay after they’re gone,

Reminding us, of a love that shone.

 A lesson learned, a bond that grew,

  A cherished moment, a dream come true.

 But time moves on, and so do we,

 Leaving behind, what used to be.

As we’re all passengers, on this boat,

Not knowing when, we’ll reach the final note.

 When our driver, will bid us farewell,

 And we’ll become, a memory too.

  But until then, let’s make the most,

  Of every moment, and cherish each host.

Let’s leave behind, a legacy,

Of love, of kindness, of empathy.

So that when we’re gone, our memory,

Will be a beacon of hope, a legacy.

“Taking care of our planet, is a matter of looking after our own home. We can no longer exploit the earth’s resources—the trees, water, air and minerals—with no care for the coming generations. I support young people’s protests at governments’ inaction over the climate crisis.” His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

Canada man who allegedly yelled anti-trans hate at girl banned from school sports | Canada | The Guardian

“This wasn’t about defending children,” she said. “It was about attacking the children under the guise of defending them. And whether or not the child was trans, this was about an appearance, that they are ‘something’. It’s fearmongering. It’s upsetting. And if it’s upsetting to me, imagine how the child feels.”
