Dust to dust

We are all one.
We come into the world.
We leave the world.

Today's news highlight
The deaths of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett
How many others have died this day?
Some only a few hours old
Others who have lived over a century.

We move from dust to dust
Yet ... during the minutes, hours, days, and years 
It is then that we make our mark
It is then that we are called to serve

"Two icons lost in one day" says the newscaster
Not really sure about that.
Many were lost this day through death
Each that was lost was loved
Today there are many who grieve
Let us live to support those ... 
Let us live to love one another ... 
Let us live not to be a 30 second story on the news
Let us live to serve.

"You are dust, and to dust you shall return."
Genesis 3:19
