I go back.........

"We all have a song that some how stamped our lives........Takes us to another place and time. So I go back to a pew, preacher, and a choir.....Singin' about god, brimstone and fire. And the smell of Sunday chicken after church....And I go back to the loss of a real good friend.....And the sixteen summers I shared with him......Now "Only The Good Die Young" stops me in my tracks. And everytime I hear that songI go back, I go back"..............But then......."There goes my life......"

Someone that I cherished very much in my life died suddenly........he was just a man...a healer of the body; some people loved him....some didn't......but i loved him; not because he saved my life or delivered a couple of my children....but, because he was just a man.....wanting to help people and just wanting to be liked...he was just like us trying to get through this crazy life--he was on his game at times; had the world by the tail.....and then, such as life, he slipped; as we all do somtimes...I slipped and called him 'daddy' a time or two, that's for sure.........we sat and talked for hours at times.... trying to figure out this life.......he was just a man.....he loved his children dearly! I loved him dearly........seems like he was always there when i needed an ear...... I'll miss him.....but I Thank Him......He was there when I didn't even know I needed him.......and he was there......
Thank you for life.......
Thank you for adding to my life.......
Thank you for giving my children life........
I'll keep you alive in my heart and my life.........

Peace and love.....out......:)
