I read this profound quote recently and thought about what, exactly, those things are that can never be lost. Life is unutterably temporal, so what are those diamond-like slivers of light and love that are not.
Please add your own comments. Specifically, from your point of view, what are those things in life that can’t be lost?
My own “can’t-be-lost” list follows:
Dreams
Dreams that came true
Dreams that still might come true
Your own God-given talent – unique from any other’s
Perseverance through?seemingly insurmountable fears and obstacles–that go on much longer than you ever imagined they would or could
Goals accomplished?against all odds–with grit, guts and soul you didn’t know you owned
Love you gave to another
Love you received from another
Your shamelessly, in-love heart placed in the hands of another–with abandon, regardless of outcome
Your first kiss
The first time you kissed your first child
Your most memorable?birthday
Music that made your heart happy – then, listened to countless times over?with the same joyful effect
Music you danced to
Art you swooned over
The moment?you had the heart and wisdom?to recognize the depth of another’s sorrow
The moment you offered compassion to that fellow human
The day you saw your own mercy, compassion or kindness in action–and the happiness and freedom it brought to that?someone
The day you realized life will go on, despite a broken heart
The day you realized that broken heart is no longer your own headline news
A compliment from friend or stranger that lands you on top of the moon
Giving a compliment or smile that sends someone into the happiness?stratosphere
A special, always-there-for-you animal that made you laugh, and loved you, without ceasing, every day–for years and years
