Fossils, while symbols of ages past,
do not mean death.
Their very existence is a carefully preserved map
of potential pitfalls and mistakes to avoid,
their experiences, a fount of wisdom
that cannot be ignored.
I hope one day
to be this for my children,
a symbol of an age long gone,
but my experiences
become transformed into a template
and a launchpad for them to reach new heights.
