Never underestimate the power of presence. When you are in the company of a great person with a great spirit, it changes you. It causes you to feel tremendously blessed. Often times, we don't really know what we have added to our lives until the presence of the one we loved is gone. It reminds me that life is too short to take people for granted. In twenty years, I buried all but one of my nuclear family members. If I would have known how little time I had with them, I would have taken more photographs, written more often, called more often and maybe complained less. I am sure, if they could come back and live life all over again, they would say the same. If they would have known how long they had to go without seeing me, they would have said, " I love you" more often than they did. Never underestimate the power of presence.
Close to You
