Lasting Impressions

People say that first impressions are really important, but I think last impressions mean just as much.

I have just attended my last Sunday meeting as a soldier of my Corps.

Following the meeting, so many people came to me, wishing us well, in their caring, friendly, Christian way.

Other people, entered the hall in their usual, stoney-faced, bless-me-if-you-dare kind-of attitude, and left the hall in the same way, without even a second glance towards me and my family.

It made me wonder what lasting impression I will leave on the Corps.

Hopefully it will be the former and not the latter.

But it makes you think, you never know who is watching you, taking in your actions and analysing your every move.

I hope that I portray the kind of person that God wants me to be, and not the mood that I wake up in on a Sunday morning!
