The act of creating a memorial for one who has passed away is an act of spirituality. A memorial tells the world that Marco may be gone, but his spirit lives on. A memorial makes a statement that Marco will forever be tied together in the circle of life. A memorial is a statement that Marco's life mattered & continues to matter. The acts of goodness & courage will never be forgotten. A memorial is a way to remember a loved one forever.

Have you ever Danced?
An
old prospector shuffled into the town of El Indio, Texas leading an old tired
mule. The old man headed straight for the only saloon in town, to clear his
parched throat. He walked up to the saloon and tied his old mule to the hitch
rail. As he stood there, brushing some of the dust from his face and clothes, a
young gun-slinger stepped out of the saloon with a gun in one hand and a bottle
of whiskey in the other.
The young gun-slinger looked at the old man and laughed, saying, "Hey old man, have you ever danced?" The old man looked up and said, "No, I never did dance, never really wanted to."
A crowd had gathered as the gun-slinger grinned and said, "Well, you old fool, you're gonna' dance now," and started shooting at the old man's feet. The old prospector, not wanting to get a toe blown off, started hopping around like a flea on a hot skillet. Everybody was laughing, fit to be tied.
When his last bullet had been fired, the young gun-slinger, still laughing, holstered his gun and turned around to go back into the saloon. The old man turned to his pack mule, pulled out a double-barrelled shotgun, and cocked both hammers. The loud clicks carried clearly through the desert air.
The crowd stopped laughing immediately. The young gun-slinger heard the sounds too, and he turned around very slowly. The silence was almost deafening. The crowd watched as the young gunman stared at the old timer and the large gaping holes of those twin barrels.
The barrels of the shotgun never wavered in the old man's hands, as he quietly said, "Son, have you ever kissed a mule's ass?"
The gun-slinger swallowed hard and said, "No sir..... but... I've always wanted to."

There are a few lessons for us all here:
·
Never
be arrogant.
·
Don't
waste ammunition.
·
Whiskey
makes you think you're smarter than you are.
·
Always,
always make sure you know who has the power.
·
Don't
mess with old men, they didn't get old by being stupid.
I
just
love a story with a happy ending,
don't
you?

Something to make you Smile...
I MIGHT AS WELL SHARE...
A DAY WITHOUT SMILING IS A WASTED DAY ! !
If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can get going without pep pills,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment
If you can ignore a friend's limited education and never correct him,
If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you can get going without pep pills,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment
If you can ignore a friend's limited education and never correct him,
If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you forward this on, you get ....
Absolutely nothing ....
Except the grateful smile of someone you know!
