hearts.

A couple years ago I lost a friend to a motorcycle accident. She was one of the most amazing people I had ever met. She was smart, talented, hardworking, happy, and a friend to anyone who walked her path. When I attended her funeral there were a few people who spoke. They of course said great things about her. Most would agree that at most funerals only great things are said about them, but everything they said was unbelievably true. It was not a show for the funeral nor the lack of ability to say something bad about someone who had passed on. She really was that great of a person. This got me thinking. I wonder what people would say at my funeral? Would they bluff and just say nice things for the sake of my funeral? How many people do that at funerals?
This made me want to be sure that I made a good impact or impression on everyone that has walked into my life. I have slipped up before, but for the most part I have never really done a harmful thing to anyone. Not to lose my humbleness, but  I wish everyone had a heart like mine. I think the world would be happier.
I guess my personal definition of self worth is how great of a person you are. This starts with your heart. My friend, Vanessa had a great one and even though she left far too soon, everyone knew it. I guess my heart can speak for myself when I say that I care about everyone. Maybe even too much at times. As long as I stand my ground when I need to, I don't see how this could ever be the wrong path.

Hearts can save this world. <3
