Sanctity of Life

There's no one in town I know
You gave us some place to go.
I never said thank you for that.
I thought I might get one more chance.
What would you think of me now,
so lucky, so strong, so proud?
I never said thank you for that,
now I'll never have a chance.

May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.

May angels lead you in.
So what would you think of me now,
so lucky, so strong, so proud?
I never said thank you for that,
now I'll never have a chance.

May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.

May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.

And if you were with me tonight,
I'd sing to you just one more time.
A song for a heart so big,
God wouldn't let it live.

May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.

May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.

May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.

"Hear You Me", Jimmy Eat World

*last night my Great Uncle Nelson Gritter passed away. he was always encouraging and uplifting; i looked forward to the birthday cards from him and his wife every year; he was a constant positive influence on my life. i always wanted to tell him how much he meant to me in my life, but i'm not sure i ever did. now it's too late.

i don't want to live my life full of 'what if's' and 'if only's'. i want to live for the moment - breath in fresh air, smell the flowers, watch the sunsets, wish on shooting stars. i don't want to live w/ regret - i want to love unconditionally, laugh uncontrollably, live unforgettably.

i don't want to let one more day go by w/o telling those i love what they mean to me and what they've done for me in my life. life is too fragile and too sacred to let it go by unlived. live life for the moment - one step at a time; one foot in front of the other; day after day even through the darkest storms.

*Thank you to everyone who has impacted my life - i can't begin to express my gratitude. i love you all w/ all my heart and appreciate everything you have done for me. thank you for helping me become the person i am today.

love, blessings, and prayers to all.
