![]() It’s the worst part of our travels together, however, this past weekend was the perfect way to end our visit this time around. Today I say goodbye to my best friend who lives on the other side of the planet and this time we actually do not know when we will see each other again. Experience it all and no matter what, if you have something you want to do, something you have been dying to do for years, do it now because we don’t know how long our dash will last. Embrace all the beauty, love and amazing people this life has to offer. It’s all about what you do during that dash in your life that matters. They say that money spent on experiences is more impactful as time goes on in our lives and I could not agree more. To say this adventure was worth every single penny is an understatement. Truth be told, you could put us in a cardboard box and we would have a blast, but Coachella was just calling our names this year. But it’s a damn good time and it was money well spent on one of the best experiences we have both ever had together. All she kept saying was, “I am so happy we did this, I am so happy we did this.” Because let’s be honest, Coachella isn’t cheap. ![]() This past weekend Deanna and I went to a Coachella with a billion other people to listen to some awesome music, chill out and to enjoy the ambiance that is an unreal dance party in the desert. That what’s so cool about life, we get to choose how we live it. It’s your life to live and you can do whatever you want to make that dash count. If you want to spend that time being a negative a$$hole, that’s cool too. ![]() If you want to spend the time between your two dates checking off your bucket list, creating happiness and embracing the life you have, then rock on. Dash Poem is a thoughtful reminder that it’s not what we have or own or how we look that makes our lives worth living, it’s how we live it. I’ll be the first to admit I am guilty of becoming fixated on the crap that really doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things. For it’s not the dates of our birth and death that are most important, but the time in between those two dates and how you spend that time which is, in the end, the most important. It’s a poem about the dash mark between the date of our birth and date of our death on our tombstones. ![]() If in doubt, please ask first.My friend Deanna told me about this poem called Dash Poem.
