It used be dying alone, not having made any difference to the world in my life but...I've gotten into wildlife rescue, care and rehabilitation this year and aside from that, have also rescued a severely neglected duck from a produce store, who is now doing amazingly - so in the words of American poet, Emily Dickinson: "If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain. If I can ease one life the aching, or cool one pain, or help one fainting robin unto his nest again - I shall not live in vain."
And as I feel my life has meaning, it makes me feel as if anything I may be even remotely intimidated by is just something I need to overcome because since human beings have messed up the planet and the life in it as much as they have - it needs all the help it can get, so I NEED to be strong in order to continue caring and restoring what we have damaged.
If you knew you would be dead by the end of the year and nothing you could do would change that fact - what would you do?
