I ran across this nugget today.
And it prompted these thoughts…
For everything that we did wrong…
For everything that we got right…
For all that we should have done…
For all that we did do…
For all the struggles…
For all the victories…
Through it all – We loved.
We dared to love with all our hearts
All our souls…
AND, we managed to have some fun along the way.
Funny how the holiday season brings nostalgia.
