Since as long as I can remember, I have loved ancient Egypt. Since I was 12 years old I knew I wanted the Ankh tattooed onto my forearm.
Ankh: eternal life and divine existence.
As I have gotten older, the definition as become clearer to me. Eternal life: will I be remembered when I’m gone? Will I have made a difference or just passed through unnoticed like a light breeze? Divine existence: how will I be remembered? Am I missed because I made others happy? Did I leave people better off?
If, when my time comes, I am remembered and thought of fondly, I will have found my eternal life, my divine existence. This is my definition, how I choose to live.

Well, I know that I think of you fondly, if that helps.
