Love........?

When everything is ..............said & done.....
What would remain is nothing, -is it NOT for the LOVE that you 'hang' your Memories on.....

When one is ageing, & the remains of yesteryear are stripped from the' precious memoirs', that 'love' (& that were associated with that,) -would have created.............. it is painful to know that most that are remaining is an emptiness of incompleteness, -because of the lack of 'An embracing Love of Significance' 

Realizing, -in contemplation, that it is futile to try & search for 'those things' that were forever lost in the remains of time...........
Time & precious moments with children that grew-up without having had the much needed & desired interaction of a willing dad....
Lost time that no-one can turn back.
In vague remembrance, those things that were taking precedence (back then) -over what WAS in fact, -rather really of Importance, come & go in an dismal array of loose thoughts.....
In retrospect, it had NO or little positive significance on later events......that would follow in future.

I realized......... 'Love' is the ONLY 'essence & substance' what Life really 'consist' of..........
i.e.The Love ......that I've given 
......& the Love I have graciously accepted.

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, .............all of which have the potential to turn a life around !

Perhaps one of the alternatives as a possible future solution might be:
...........Live as if you were living a second time,
and as though you had acted wrongly the first time !
