"~~~ FOOD FOR THOUGHT ~~~"
IF I KNEW IT WOULD BE THE LAST TIME THAT I'D SEE YOU FALL ASLEEP
I WOULD TUCK YOU IN MORE TIGHTLY AND PRAY THE LORD YOUR SOUL TO
KEEP.
IF I KNEW IT WOULD BE THE LAST TIME THAT I SEE YOU WALK OUT THE
DOOR, I WOULD GIVE YOU A HUG AND KISS AND CALL YOU BACK FOR MORE.
IF I KNEW IT WOULD BE THE LAST TIME I'D HEAR YOUR VOICE LIFTED UP
IN
PRAISE, I WOULD VIDEO TAPE EACH ACTION AND WORD, SO I COULD PLAY
THEM BACK DAY AFTER DAY.
IF I KNEW IT WOULD BE THE LAST TIME I COULD SPARE AN EXTRA MINUTE
OR TWO
TO STOP AND SAY "I LOVE YOU", INSTEAD OF ASSUMING YOU WOULD KNOW
I DO.
IF I KNEW IT WOULD BE THE LAST TIME I WOULD BE THERE TO SHARE
YOUR DAY, WELL I'M SURE YOU'LL HAVE SO MANY MORE, SO I CAN LET
THIS ONE SLIP AWAY.
FOR SURELY THERE'S ALWAYS TOMORROW TO MAKE UP FOR AN OVERSIGHT, AND
WE
ALWAYS GET A SECOND CHANCE TO MAKE EVERYTHING RIGHT.
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE ANOTHER DAY TO SAY OUR "I LOVE YOU'S, AND
CERTAINLY THERS'S ANOTHER CHANCE TO SAY OUR "ANYTHING I CAN DO'S"
BUT JUST IN CASE I MIGHT BE WRONG, AND TODAY IS ALL I GET, I'D LIKE
TO
SAY HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU AND I HOPE WE NEVER FORGET. TOMORROW
IS NOT PROMISED TO ANYONE, YOUNG OR OLD ALIKE.
AND TODAY MAY BE THE LAST CHANCE YOU GET TO HOLD YOUR LOVED ONE TIGHT.
SO IF YOU'RE WAITING FOR TOMORROW, WHY NOT DO IT TODAY?
FOR IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES, YOU'LL SURELY REGRET THE DAY.
THAT YOU DIDN'T TAKE THAT EXTRA TIME FOR A SMILE, A HUG, OR A KISS
AND YOU WERE TOO BUSY TO GRANT SOMEONE, WHAT TURNED OUT TO
BE THEIR LAST WISH.
SO HOLD YOUR LOVED ONES CLOSE TODAY, AND WHISPER IN THEIR EAR.
TELL THEM HOW MUCH YOU LOVE THEM AND THAT YOU'LL ALWAYS HOLD
THEM DEAR. TAKE TIME TO SAY "I'M SORRY",
"PLEASE FORGIVE ME", "THANK YOU"
OR "IT'S OKAY". AND IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES,
YOU'LL HAVE NO REGRETS ABOUT TODAY.
