Thinking about those who mean the most!

I wrote in November last year that life is never fair. Death and sorrow is always following and happens when you least expected.

It's in times like these I think about the people that mean the most to me - and if they know how much they mean to me.

News that break your heart, hearing your friend is in pain and the fact that death doesn't wait for no man make you really think about your life and how you are living it.
- do I say "I love you" enough?
- do my friends know how much they mean to me?
- does my family know how they are my everything?
- do they know I would do anything for them?
- are they aware of this?

I try to tell my family and friends that they do mean a lot to me - and that I'm here for them in times of need!!

that brings me to another kind of love - and being IN love..
I have been in love but love has always drifted away and I never do anything about it.
I have only said "I love you" once and that love went away.
I've loved but not follow my love and making sure that my love will stay my love.
Why?

Next time, let's hope there will be one, I will be in love - I will make sure my love does not slip away and that I will not be left behind with a broken heart - I will not stand up in the end of my life and say - What if?
Life is too short - and I have seen that now.
I should fight for my loved one - let that person know that he means the world to me as well.

Let's hope I will keep this in mind next time I fall in love, whenever that will be.

I'm ending this post, a post that really makes me think about those that mean the most, with a lyric from a song by Gretchen Wilson - Holdin' You!!

-with love-

I dont need whiskey to drown out the pain
Or some old umbrella to hold off the rain
Dont have to cross over a river of tears
All that i need is right here

Holding you holds me together
When holding on gets just a little to hard
When this tight rope i travel
Begins to unravel and i feel like
Im falling apart
Holding you holds me together

You know lifes a freight liner on
A runaway track
But ill take the ride knowing
That youll bring me back
No fates too uncertain no distance to far
As long as your here in my arms
