ONE DAY.......

Mugsy

ONE DAY.......

One day, Dad
I’ll have hands just like yours
One day, Dad
They’ll be as strong as yours
One day, Dad
I hope to be a man like you
Loving husband
Caring father
These tiny hands of mine
So new to the world
Can feel that Love and Gentleness
Of a real man
And, one day
when you’re old and frail
These little hands
Will be there for you
The one who stood by me
If I could choose my Dad
It would still be you
For this I know for sure
I couldn’t have chosen better!

    I have just been sent this letter and it moved me…...... it carries such a powerful message:
    Gabriel Garcia Marquez – Nobel prize winner for literature 1982
    Gabriel has terminal cancer, and this is a letter to all his friends.

    If God, for one second, forgot what I have become and granted me a little bit more of life, I would use it to the best of my ability.

    I wouldn’t possibly say everything that is in my mind, but I would be more thoughtful of all I say ………. I would give merit to things not for what they are worth, but for what they mean to express..

    I would sleep less, I would dream more, because I know that for every minute we close our eyes, we waste sixty seconds of light.

    I would walk while others stop; I would awake while others sleep.

    If God would give me a little more life, I would dress in a simple manner, I would place myself in front of the son, leaving not only my body, but my soul naked at its mercy…..

    To all, I would say how mistaken they are when they think that stop falling in love when they grow old, without knowing that they grow old when they stop falling in love.

    I would give wings to children, but I would leave it to them to learn how to fly by themselves.

    To old people I would say that death doesn’t arrive when they grow old, but with forgetfulness.

    I have learned so much with you all, I have learned that everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, without knowing that true happiness is obtained in the journey taken and the form used to reach the top of the hill.

    I have learned that when a newborn baby holds, with its little hands, his father’s fingers, it has trapped him for the rest of his life.

    I have learned that a man has the right and obligation to look down on another man, only when that man needs help to get up from the ground;

    Say always what you feel, not what you think. If I know that today is the last day that I am going to see you asleep, I would hug you with all my strength, and would pray to the |Lord to let me be the guardian angel of your soul……

    If I knew that these were the last moments to see you, I would say “I love you”.

    There is always tomorrow and life gives us the opportunity to do things right, but in case I am wrong, and today is all that is left to me, I would tell you how much I love you and that I will never forget you.

    Tomorrow is never guaranteed to anyone, young or old, today could be the last time to see your loved ones, which is why you mustn’t wait; do it today, in case you will be sorry you wasted the opportunity today. To give a smile, a hug, a kiss, and that you were too busy to grant them their last wish.

    Keep your loved ones near you, tell them in their ears and to their faces that you need them and love them. Love them and treat them well; take your time to tell them “I am sorry, forgive me, please, thank you”, and all those loving words you know.

    Nobody will know you for your secret thoughts. Ask the Lord for wisdom and strength to express them.

    Show your friends and loved ones how important they are to you. Send this letter to those you love. If you don’t do it today….. tomorrow will likely be yesterday, and if you never do it, it doesn’t matter, either, the moment to do it is now.

    For you with much love,

    Your friend,

    Gabriel Garcia Marquez

    Charming… Such a easy comment to make… But when you think about its meaning… You charm us here Mugsy. You captivate, enthrall, and move us. I’ve often thought that a brilliant idea is intuitively obvious – just as soon as someone exposes us to it.

    The most I can say is, “Gosh, I wish I’d thought of that.” It’s charming.
