One day the moonlight said to me

To make my mark before I leave

Was more her faith in me to be.

She said be a significance

In someone's life beyond my kids;

I have been doing ever since.

For life gives us a choice to make

To play the rules and some to break

The daring brave do choose their fate.

I choose to think out of a box

And sometimes do what some will not

And some place go where some cannot.

Better to be significant

Than leave a stench of a vial scent

And face an end of poor time spent.

For there are those who leave a mark

Only to die without a heart

And left on stage without a part.

Better to leave a mark today

And touch a life in special way

Through face, and voice, and act, create.

ACCOUNTABLE

     A teacher passed away and her spirit traveled to the gates of Heaven. A small boy stood at the gate and said,  

     "I'm sorry, but you may not enter."

     Instantaneously, as she pondered why (because she felt she had lived a "good" life), she began to recognize the small boy.

     "You look very familiar. Yes, I remember! I once taught a boy who looked exactly like you. But, he was a bad boy; very troublesome and ignorant."

     The little boy said, "You are correct. I am he, and I am not he."

     The woman stood there puzzled.

     Just then, the boy said, "Let me show you my most recognizable form."

     Slowly, he transformed into a man.

     The woman kneeled and soberly said, "Christ! It is you!"

     Then Christ said, "When I came to you as a student who needed you most, you turned your back on me, called me names in your heart, discussed with your peers on how my kind could never learn and laughed at my speech deficiencies. You only bow now because I raised the veil of your ignorance and you see me for who I truly am. I hold you Accountable for your non-actions, as well as, your actions. No, you may not pass into the Gates of Heaven. Your path is another."
