Too True, Too Often

Too often we don't realize

What we have until it is gone

Too often we wait too late to say

"I'm sorry - I was wrong."

Sometimes it seems we hurt the ones

We hold dearest to our hearts

And we allow foolish things

To tear our lives apart.

Far too many times we let

Unimportant things into our minds

And then it's usually too late

To see what made us blind.

So be sure that you let people know

How much they mean to you

Take that time to say the words

Before your time is through.

Be sure that you appreciate

Everything you've got

And be thankful for the little things

in life that mean a lot.

Remember Me:
To the living, I am gone.
To the sorrowful, I will never return.
To the angry, I was cheated,
But to the happy, I am at peace,
And to the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.
So as you stand upon a shore, gazing at a beautiful sea - remember me.
As you look in awe at a mighty forest and its grand majesty - remember me.
As you look upon a flower and admire its simplicity - remember me.

Remember me in your heart, your thoughts, your memories of the times we loved,
the times we cried, the times we fought, the times we laughed.
For if you always think of me, I will never be gone.

Margaret Mead
