According to Webster’s Dictionary, middle can be an adjective; equal distance from extremes

or middle can be a noun; a central position, the position of being among or in the midst.

Today I think I will talk about “that which is in the midst”, the dash. You know, that little line between the dates. “Harold Smith 1928-1996” or “Leah Anderson Smith 1928-2009” The little symbol that we are all familiar with.

For me the dash is of great importance. I write regularly about the dash in my blog https://tombstonetuesday.blog/ . I write about my ancestors and their dash. I include as much as I can learn about their dash. I write about long dashes and the short dashes because all of their dashes are an important part of who I have become. You are here because of your ancestor’s dash. If they had not been here, neither would you. You, too, have a dash.

Today you are living your dash.

Will your dash be impact full?

Is your dash what you want it to be?

You still have time to make your dash what you want it to be, if you want to change it. Remember life is short! Make your dash count!

Happy Hunting,
