If your ancestors could look at the life you are living...
What would they think about it?
This is something I think about a lot...
...and I can honestly say I sleep well at night knowing I give my fucking best.
Oftentimes I give too much and it bugs me in ways I never talk about.
It hurts...
It's hard...
It frustrates me...
People take advantage of me…
...and I struggle with it a lot.
Honestly, it fucking sucks sometimes.
My hope is my grandfather who was killed as a young man in France after storming the beach at Normandy in WWII and the many others like him aren't regretful for their sacrifice when they watch me live.
I hope there is some way they know that some of us still give a fuck...
Value their sacrifice...
...and try to repay them by living a life that matters.
I try to repay them with how I live...
...and while I'm very far from perfect...
I give it everything.
That gives me some peace.
What would your ancestors think about you and the way you live?
Something to think about.
It may not matter to you...
...But it matters to me...
...and I'm sure it matters to them as well.
