Each of us as individuals are what we are because of a million events that went on before we were born. People we do not even know made decisions that set events in order that led to our birth and our lives. We are living today and making decisions that will touch the lives of all that shall come after us.
This is an amazing thought. We all touch the lives of those around us that will in turn touch the lives of so many. So many before us lived and did this or that and now it influences us in so many ways.
"It is said that some lives are linked across times connected by a ancient calling that echoes through the ages" (Author Unknown)
It amazes me to think of all those from previous generations that I do not know who lived and thought and dreamed and took action and all of that has impacted me and who I am.
The first man to walk the earth was named Adam and the first woman to live on earth was named Eve. These two made decisions. They have touched our lives today in many ways. They made decisions to sin against God and that is something we now live with all over planet earth. Yes, the good decisions made by a man or woman touches lives unseen to them. Also, the bad decisions and evil actions reaches forth to touch the lives of untold generations yet unborn.
Think of the decisions you now make and ask yourself, "how shall this touch future lives?".
Most humans live their lives for the here and the now. They make no consideration on what has gone before nor do they ponder on what shall come hereafter. Sad, indeed.
There is a mystery like a fog that clouds our human conscience when it comes to these things. However, we should all be ever grateful to those that have gone before and blessed our lives. We should give more consideration on how we live and what legacy we shall leave when our time on earth is over
