I had some very sad news yesterday that my great mate Martin Collins had sadly passed away. So Martin, this one is for you.
Just sitting here and wondering
as the day is passing by.
I’m remembering the fun you gave,
and asking, why did you have to die?
You've always been there for others,
you really were a treasured friend,
I’m gutted that you’ve left us
So a hug from me I’ll send.
Sadly we’ll have to let you go,
with the minimum of fuss.
Even though you won't really be gone,
because you'll live inside of us.
Just know that we will miss you,
as you enter through heavens gate
you were one of the best I have to say,
a husband, a dad and my mate.
There's a bright brand new beautiful day out
there, it may be cold, but we can wrap up warm and snuggle. So in a way
being cold is a good thing. I mean who wouldn't want an excuse to
snuggle!
I know we all take it for granted at times, but every
day is pretty darn awesome in it's own way. There are times when we are
feeling like every day we do the same thing
day in day out, day after day. I think we start to think like that
because we're brushing over the tiny details, not seeing the big stuff
that seems to be small and just looking at it with apathy.
Every day something will happen or someone will say something that
touches you and makes you think or just makes you smile. You may not
even notice it at the time, but don't worry, it will just sneak into
your memory a little later in the day in some idle moment and remind
you.
Hold on to these little moments, because they are the
things that we hold on to and that make every day the brand new gift
that it is. Life is to short to hold grudges, and to try and bring
someone down for no good reason. So be forgiving, be a shoulder to lean
on, be the support you know you can be and as the song says spread a
little happiness as you go by.
