In case I'm gone tomorrow

[Andy C]

A fine, caring note to share with all.

As I approach my twilight years, I am struck by the inevitability that the
party must end. And one clear, cold morning after I'm gone, my spouse will
awaken in the warmth of our bedroom and be struck with the pain of learning
that sometimes there isn't "anymore."


No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone
calls just to chat, no more "just one minute."


Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never
to return before we can say good-bye, or say "I love you."


So while we have it, its best we love it, care for it, fix it when it's
broken and heal it when it's sick.


This is true for marriage.....and old cars, and children with bad report
cards, and dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and grandparents. We keep
them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.


Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or a son-in-law
after divorce. There are just some things that make us happy, no matter
what.


Life is important, like people we know who are special. And so, we keep them
close!


Suppose one morning you never wake up, do all your friends know how you
really feel? The important thing is to let every one of your friends know
your true feelings, even if you think they don't love you back.


So, just in case I'm gone tomorrow, please rest assured I voted against that
a$$hole, Obama, both times!
