Love!

If people could only understand the true meaning of love!
I spent the entire day, not necessarily every moment, but the entire day with my great grandson. I spent the evening (a Tuesday nonetheless) with my spouse! I am a very fortunate man.
They both love me dearly and I in return love them. To me, that is what love should be. And to think that I have been fortunate enough to experience that for the past 41 years is, in itself, a beautiful thing!
I find it sad that we have veered off track so badly in this country that we find hatred is a good thing. I don't hate, never have, never will. Despised yes, hate no. When I tend to get a writing subject, I don't really try to offend people. But sometimes they need to be offended, if only to wake them up to reality. People are so sensitive these days, so easily offended. But all I try to do is inform.
I read, I observe. There is a great deal wrong these days that people don't want to see, but is there nevertheless.
I know of no way to reach these people, who vote not on the entirety of the needs, but on one misguided thought, not researching the remainder.
Life is never going to be easy, but this is by far the worst period of my life I have ever experienced.
But I still have that love from my family and that's all I need! Cherish that in your life, because you don't really have a long time to enjoy it.
Ride that Go-kart, drink that glass of wine, hold her hand, tell her you love her, hug him and hold him, because that's what he needs. He doesn't care who's on the phone or what game you are playing, you're ignoring his needs to satisfy your own!
She doesn't care that you ramble on each night, you are showing her that you love her by spending quality time with her! I consider myself as a very rich man and very fortunate that at this moment in time I have these 2 in my life and that will remain that way until the end.
Love is sometimes fleeting, grab it while you can!
With that I say goodnight and may peace find it's way to your doorstep.
