Sunday June 15: Sort of goes with the day...

froggy · 06-15-2008, 12:17 PM

In July 2006, a short 3-minute movie was launched on the Internet
called The Dash.
Since then, over 40 million people from around the world have watched it;
and over 20,000 a day continue to watch it as a result of people
passing it along.
The movie has been more successful than we could have ever imagined.
More importantly, however, it has inspired many, many people to
reflect on their lives and ask that all important question, 'Are my
priorities where they should be?'

How very appropriate to read this on Father's Day. I can truly say that my own Dad lived his "dash" so extremely well as the kindest, most gentle of souls - I was fortunate to have him even if only for 42 years. And my late husband lived his dash so well - maybe a different personality than my Dad but was caring, loving, responsible, true - with me for almost 48 years.
Thank you.

i am sure that Tim Russert would be happy with his dash allthough a little shorter than he would have wanted

I'll bet many have already seen this. I did more than a year ago. I guess I'm part of the 40 Million.

It is an great message.. but it may just be that lot's of folks on this forum have already seen it, not that they don't want to comment.

Thanks for posting it.
