Heard a Song.., Made me think of you

Heard this song and it made me think of you, yet again it is the time of year for the hustle and bustle of Christmas.With this brings people always in a hurry to go where, I don't know? With this brings rudeness, no patience and least of all understanding.Why the happiest time of the year is filled with less than love is beyond my understanding.It has been a very long time since you've been gone on thet christmas morning but you have never been forgotten. For I wish that you were here with me now. That you could have been here all these years ,that you could have been here to have seen your great gradchildren almost all grown up. I know how you loved christmas.I know how you felt family was the most important thing. I know how you always told me that love is the heart of the world.That all the riches in the world didnt mean anything without love.As I've gotten older i've come to realize just how right you were there is nothing more important than love. Love does make the world go round. I miss you Grandpa!!!

Thankful Thursday!!!
