My grandparents are dead, my parents are dead, my uncles and aunts are dead, and sometimes I wish they were all still alive and around, especially at times when winter seems long and warmth and summertime seems ages away. Every good thing they gave during their life will never be forgotten!!! You are infinitely loved and cherished!!!

This old song brings the tears, both of sadness and joy - - - the memories of dear ones lost, the passage of time and gratefulness for those we love today. Now that I'm old, the passage of time becomes precious, memories become dear and the nearness of eternity becomes a comfort. Good-bye and good riddance to 2020 and a hope for God's blessings on us in 2021.

Times long ago. I think I will listen to it several times today and I've sent it to my six children. Such a lovely song holistic healing and meaning.

This was just a song that happened at New Years Eve parties when I was young. Today, my 70th birthday, this song becomes increasingly bittersweet with each year we grow older, as we look around and see so few family and friends still with us. Memories become increasingly cherished as the people those memories are about no longer grace our lives with their presence. And this has now become a song of great meaning as we are now surrounded by far more memories than friends and family. Hold tight to those memories as a reminder of what those absent family and friends gave you, making you what you are today.
