Todo por servir, se acaba - Thursday #563
Uh, It's been a weird few weeks.
I went out to the store and when I came in, I saw that Nelson Mandela had passed.
In the past few weeks, I got the news that a brother in law and a former co-worker had died, then Gini.

Todo por servir, se acaba.
Everything that is useful, will wear out.
My mom used that saying quite a bit, about material things and about people.
I pondered those words for years - until I started to see what they meant.
It's a simple lament about something that you use or depend on finally wearing out.
It's also a little salute as to how useful that item or person was in your life.
We get a little flustered, lost and then we get our bearings back and breathe again.
