I have inside of me a lost child, a faither who was taken by another mans hand and not by the grace of his God.<br><br>I held my favourite uncle in my arms until the life ran out of him and he died cursing the cruelest of cancer that took him. Stolen from us, my youngest brother to foul play before he had time to grow hair on his chin. It broke us nearly with the pain.<br><br>We lost our mammy to the cough and our world lost its sunshine for a while, but I never gave in. I couldn't, I have people who need me to be strong, so do you.<br><br>Still I stand, and so must you. We drink to remember the good times spent with each, for what good is the misery brought on with the drink inside of us and sentiment running from the corner of our eyes?<br><br>We must laugh with the living, leave them their own happy memories, we celebrate every minute we are above ground. So must you. Grieve well my friend, it is your right to so, then put on your boots and your cap and face the world with the divil in your eyes.<br><br><br>Chef Fileshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13871866841906377841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1000240716876915556.post-87300293924827416522012-09-15T23:15:47.630-07:002012-09-15T23:15:47.630-07:00:-) G'day from Oz mate, thinking of you.:-) G'day from Oz mate, thinking of you.Tempohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01023337124226272532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1000240716876915556.post-89603861193138629952012-09-15T22:03:40.283-07:002012-09-15T22:03:40.283-07:00xoxoxoxo for you, bubba. you have my heart.xoxoxoxo for you, bubba. you have my heart.savannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04310843901371718758noreply@blogger.com
