I miss my grandfather. Since today is Father's Day.... I've been thinking about him a lot all through this day. I mean I think about him quite often, but today more so. I just remember his smile... and his eyes shining so bright. It's been two years and it feels like he should still be here.... watching his 5 million grandkids grow up. Not 5 million for real, but there is a bunch of us. His morals and strong upbringing has had a great impact on my life, and I will eventually tell my children about their great-grandfather's simple time in this world. He was called the "Gentle Giant". But boy, his temper was fire hot. He cooled down in his later years, but my dad tells me all kinds of stories about Pap. He was a cool miner all his life, meaning he knew what it meant to work. He did what he had to raise his boys right and keep food on the table.
Anywho. I love my Pap... Remembering him today.... He's free from his disease and is with Jesus and angels. But I can't wait to see his smiling face again.....
Now... go live your life to the fullest. Look around you... appreciate what you have now. Make every moment count.
