Footprints in the sand.

One of the finest persons I was privileged to know was Charlie Hudson. When asked what he wanted said about him when he died he answered “That I made a difference.” The greatest legacy of a life is to make a difference and every person has that opportunity. The needs of others are endless and each time we meet those needs we leave footprints in the sand. Charlie’s life was one of a thousand times a thousand where he gave of himself. It is the call of each of us in our desire for legacy to make the world better each day. The mammoth achievement that we desire is before us in tiny opportunities. It can be a smile, an act of charity a forgiving word or the willingness to stand for the rights of the marginalized. There is no act of kindness that does not spawn other acts of kindness.
