A beautiful reminder about not waiting until it's too late to let someone know how much you love them. Sometimes it's hard to understand why bad things happen to the people we love most but we have to trust God's plan and make eachothers days here on earth the best we know how.


"One Little Rose"

I would rather have one little rose From the garden of a friend Than to have the choicest flowers When my stay on earth must end. I would rather have one pleasant word In kindness said to me Than flattery when my heart is still And life has ceased to be. I would rather have a loving smile From friends I know are true Than tears shed round my casket When this world I've bid adiew. Bring me all your flowers today Whether pink, or white, or red; I'd rather have one blossom now Than a basketful when I'm dead.

Madi proceeded to say, "Well if I worked at the church I would say "No more lent FOREVER."
