This fun program is a great way
to practice "RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS (RAK) Taking the
time to care makes your gater pal feel special. It
is our goal to make each other smile.
We have 4 quarters: Jan thru
March, April thru June, July thru Sept and Oct thru
Dec. You can sign up for one quarter OR for all 4
quarters. You will get a different pal each quarter!
We ask that you send at least
one card or small gift once each month to your pal.
And, in return, baring any unforeseen issues
another Gater Pal will be sending you something to
brighten your day at least once each month!
Its the little things - a new
mini item sent from a secret pogo account, a card, a
hand made or home baked goody, a special something
that made you think of your pal that shows someone
was thinking of you that will make your pal feel cared
about!
Ready or not, someday it will all come to an end.
There will be no more sunrises, no minutes, hours or
days.
All the things you collected, whether treasured or
forgotten,
will pass to someone else.
Your wealth, fame and temporal power will shrivel to
irrelevance.
It will not matter what you owned or what you were owed.
Your grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies
will finally disappear.
So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans, and to-do lists
will expire.
The wins and losses that once seemed so important will
fade away.
It won't matter where you came from, or on what side of
the tracks you lived,
at the end. It won't matter whether you were beautiful
or brilliant.
Even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant.
So what will matter? How will the value of your days be
measured?
What will matter is not what you bought,
but what you built; not what you got, but what you gave.
What will matter is not your success, but your
significance.
What will matter is not what you learned, but what you
taught.
What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion,
courage
or sacrifice that enriched, empowered or encouraged
others to emulate your example.
What will matter is not your competence, but your
character.
What will matter is not how many people you knew,
but how many will feel a lasting loss when you're gone.
What will matter is not your memories,
but the memories that live in those who loved you.
What will matter is how long you will be remembered,
by whom and for what.
Living a life that matters doesn't happen by accident.
It's not a matter of circumstance but of choice.
Choose to live a life that matters.
