So True !!!

A man died and when he realized it, he saw God coming closer with a suitcase in his hand.
- God said: Alright son, its time to go.
- Surprised the man responded: Now? So soon? I had a lot of plans...
- I'm sorry but its time to go.

- What do you have in that suitcase? the man asked.
- God answered: Your belongings.
- My belongings? you mean my things, my clothes, my money?
- God answered: Those things were not yours they belonged to the earth.

- Is it my memories? the man asked.
- God answered: Those never belonged to you, they belonged to Time

- Is it my talents?
- God answered: Those were never yours, they belonged to the circumstances.

- Is it my friends and family?
- God answered: I'm sorry they were never yours, they belonged to the path.

- Is it my wife and son?
- God answered: They were never yours, the belonged to your heart.

- Is it my body?
- God answered: That was never yours, it belonged to the dust.

- Is it my soul?
- God answered: No that is mine.

Full of fear, the man took the suitcase from god and opened it, just to find out the suitcase was empty.
- With tears coming down his cheek the man said: I never had anything???
- God answered: That is correct, only every moment you lived were yours. Life is just a moment, a moment that belongs to you.

For this reason, enjoy this time while you have it.  Don't let anything that you think  you own, stop you from doing so.
- Live Now
- Live your life
- Don't forget to be happy, that is the only thing that matters.
- Material things and everything else that you fought for stay here.
- YOU CAN'T TAKE ANYTHING ALONG.....

Thanks to Richard for this soul searching article... So true !!!
