Hugh Krone - the outstanding agent from Sussex County, New Jersey inspired me to write
this 7:00am rambling while waiting for my 1-week old baby to get up from his
feedings.....
Hugh asked,
If I Died In My Sleep Today, where would I go? Hmmm.... I thought to
myself and smiled. I know.
Sometime back, I thought about this question; but with a similar twist:
If I died today, have I done all that I can do?
I get up every morning with a to-do list. I am a go-getter and take an active
role in my life. I work hard and I also play hard. I want to enjoy life's every
given minute. I thrive on making those around me feel comfortable. It doesn't
always happen that way, but I do my best to work at it.
I see that I have 2 very important roles in my life right now: as a wife and
now mother to my baby and as a servant (serving as a realtor now).
Serving the role in my family, well, that's pretty simple and descriptive.
In real estate, I serve my clients or people whom needs real estate
assistance with intentions of helping them move on. I find that very joyful -
and yes sometimes in the midst of their unhappiness, I weep with them.
As Nicole Nordeman sings in her song, Legacy... this lyrics
come close to describing the answer to my question:
We all need an "Atta boy" or "Atta girl"
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
the temporary trappings of this world
I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love?
Did I point to you enough to make a mark on things?
My role in my family never changes. And, until my role changes as a realtor,
I am to bloom where and to whom I am called to serve. Everyday. To the best of
my ability.
I thought about this just the other day again..... I serve those I need to
that day, I kissed my baby boy goodnight and snuggled in bed with my husband....
and yes, if I died that day, I know I'll be alright.
So, how about you? If you died today, have you done all you can do?
