The Dash

What matters is the "dash." On your tombstone, you have an arrival date & a departure date. No one pays attention to the [-] in between. The dash is our lives. Live your life. Take the lump of mud that we are, throw ourselves onto the potter's wheel, and shape life into the most vibrant thing you can think of. Have fun, be patient and wait. Your mud will settle. You water will be clear.
