Deb at Once Upon a Hot Flash (https://onceuponahotflash.wordpress.com) put my name in for the 3 Day Quote Challenge, where we are to pick a quote and write about its meaning…at least how we understand or interpret it.
Three Day Quote Challenge ~ Rules:
Post a quote a day for 3 consecutive days.
Nominate 3 different bloggers on each day.
My quote for the second day in the 3 Day Quote Challenge is from Barbara Jordan, former U.S. Represenative and educator, spoken in 1986.
“I believe that I have a spirit that is not going to disappear.”
This quote says to me that even after death my spirit continues to exist and influence change. The energy I generate in life may alter in form, but remains as a beacon, charting a course for those who follow, reminding them that what they do is making and can make a difference.
This is a call for me to ‘do no harm’, so what I perpetuate adds something positive to tomorrow.
My three nominees bloggers are:

I love this quote and even more what it means to you…you’re very welcome. It’s a fun exercise isn’t it… 😉

Great quote, I suppose I’d think of the spirit that doesn’t disappear simply as family and friends memories.

Yes, our memories do keep the spirits of others alive. Energy begets energy that begets energy…and the spirit roams on.

I can hear Barbara Jordan saying those words. She was a commanding speaker.

Oh yes. And she was commanding in her presence…she radiated trust and good sense.
