As our lives seem to get busier and busier we need to remember to take time or make time to spend with our loved ones while we still have them around to love.

this reminds me of my dad and me a lot as that was the way we were until he got sick. He had to be put in an assisted living place as he had to have round the clock care. He passed away there almost 4 months ago now. I still hurts and any songs i hear like this one gets to me.

Wonderful songs with great messages – something we don’t hear in modern music songs.
