And on that clear, cold morning, in the warmth of her bedroom, the daughter was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't any more. No more hugs, no more lucky moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, No more "just one minute." Sometimes, what we care about the most goes away. never to return before we can say good-bye, Say "I Love You." ¸...¸ __/ /\____ ,·´º o`·,/__/ _/\_ //____/\ ```)¨(´´´ | | [1] | | [1]| | |[1] || |l±±±± ¸,.-·²°´ ¸,.-·~·~·-.,¸ `°²·-. :º° So while we have it . . it's best we love it . . And care for it and fix it when it's broken . and take good care of it when it's sick. This is true for marriage .... and friendships .. And children with bad report cards; And dogs with bad hips; And aging parents and grandparents.

Yes, Kathy, you're a 'keeper' !!  I will send this to my friends tonight, they will enjoy, I'm sure :)

Have a great Sunday!

Thank You Kathy,

You are a keeper also :-)

You are right. I often remember hearing stories of people with great regret because they never told their father, mother, son, daughter, someone special, they loved them when they no longer could.

You know what else I have learned is that people do not remember you told them you loved them as well as you remember you told them.

You need to show them by your actions also which is what this peom is about.

Show Them Everyday!
