Your Dash....Your Lighthouse

"Let the lower lights be burning Send the gleam across the wave Some poor fainting struggling seaman You may rescue...you may save." I don't know how well I can put my thoughts down on paper this morning but I will try. I have been thinking about three different things for a long time. When we visit a grave site of a dear one or even a stranger to us, we see four things on that tombstone.  We see our friends, or strangers name. We see his or hers birthdate. We see their date of death. And then there is something else that we see. This something else is what has made me have lots of thoughts. We see between the birth date and the death date a dash.  What am I doing during that dash of my life? Am I keeping that time of my life to myself? Am I sharing that little short span of life with others?  Am I giving that dash of time to God? What am I doing with that small short span of time that is so valuable. So important. I have always been amazed with the lighthouse. W
