Follow yourself through Time

Is life an accumulation of anguish or the pursuant of a mountain of generic modification added to at each generation.
A learning process void of harmony just a few bitter and sweet lessons handed to each generation like a baton sometimes light and lifting,but can at times be the ghosts of our past like a laden weight to be carried through time.
Pensive knowledge of our ancestors is unwise as it is they that have steered us to this point the generic mystery that some call faith.
Surprising and sometimes similar traits and patterns emerge as the paths of our ancestors emerge some reveal deep demons that have haunted our evolution and others unveil the true make-up of why we are the special and unique people we are.
Assured in the knowledge we descend from a hand of cards dealt by our direct ancestry,the building blocks that have built us if you will,isn't it amazing not all siblings are the same considering the course of history that has preceded us to make our family wall.
Your descendants had been born into this world and have lived a live with laughter,tears,sorrow and joy.Each mistake a lesson learned each success a signpost for us to follow.
Remember the people who came before us they fought the war with demons so we might have the weapons and tools to defend that most valuable of gifts our lives and generic make-up that make you the most recent in a long line of of pilgrims steered by them to this point.
Remember their success is our survival so survive with a grateful smile your present will some day be recorded so look good while you make it
