Perspective

Time To Remember by David Bancroft

While this time of year is about celebrating and bringing in a new year, it should also be spent . . . remembering our loved ones and friends who are no longer with us.

I am not talking about feeling sad or sorry, but remembering what it was like sharing this time of the year with them.

Remember . . .

A smile when opening a much wanted gift
The look of delight from an unexpected gift
A giggle
A simple hug
Always being there when needed
Reading to them
A quick kiss or hand shake of hello or thanks
Helping in the kitchen
Watching a sporting event
Going shopping
Playing a favorite card or board game
Playing golf, tennis, or other sporting activities together
Being watched performing on the field, court, or floor
Proudly watching them perform
Sitting at the dinner table on a special day
A loving smile
A reassuring pat
The sound of their voice
The smell of them as they lean against you
Hearing I love you

So take comfort as you celebrate this time of the year with “all” your loved ones and friends . . . and have a rewarding 2002!
