I was just sitting here thinking about the importance of family.....
When I see my family....
When I see my family I know what it is like for the Sun to rise above the horizon and shed forth light unto us all.
I know how the songbird feels when she fills her small lungs with air to let the first beautiful notes that morning is here reach our ears; just like the first morning my child awoke and could say, "I love you mommy."
I know how the first Spring Wind rejoices as it crosses the earth
and touches every being of life as they breathe in the innocence and wonders
of the world as I hold my child and brush the hair out of her eyes and stare
in wonderment.
I know how the rain cloud must feel as it swells with moisture and finally
releases the drops of water that nourish our world and I look at my children as they gaze up
and wonder if God is crying tears of joy that he can look down unto them and smile.
When I see my family I can see beyond the ocean, land and air and feel
that there is more to life than to live and to die. When I see my family,
I know what it is to love.
