Someone once sent me this in an email but its lost now , but i looked on the web for it and id like to share it with you, as its very true, you only get one ride on the merry-go-round, dont waste it.

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 is not much time,
with rivers to swim and mountains to climb!
Music to hear,
and books to read,
friends to cherish
and life to lead.

Dust if you must,
but the world's out there
with the sun in your eyes,
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!
