this poem is awesome but the author is anonymous......i saw it hanging in a nursing home about 7 years ago....it goes something like this

when i am gone it will not matter what kind of house i lived in

when i am gone it will not matter what kind of car i drove

when i am gone it will not matere what was in my bank account

etc.......

all that matters is that i made a difference in the life of a child.........


if anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it!! thanx

You are correct, the author is anonymous:

"A hundred years
from now,
it will not
matter what kind
of a house
we lived in, what
kind of car we
drove, or what
our bank account
balance was.
But the world
may be different
because we were
important in
the life of a child."
