“If I knew it wouldbe the last time that I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.If I knew it wouldbe the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more.If I knew it wouldbe the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day afterday.If I knew it wouldbe the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming, you would KNOW Ido.If I knew it wouldbe the last time I would be there to share your day, well, I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away.For surely there'salways tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything right.There will alwaysbe another day to say our "I love you's", And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I cando's?"But just in case Imight be wrong and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget, Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.So if you'rewaiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day, That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.So hold your loved ones close today, whisper intheir ear, Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear, Take time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me,""thank you" or "it's okay". And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.”

“But here’s the thing: shock and disbelief don’t simply disappear overnight. Worse still, you don’t want to disappoint or burden anyone by admitting you’re still not over it. That last weekend you weren’t really busy; you just couldn’t face getting dressed. That the future, which used to seem so secure, now scares the living daylights out of you.”
