my great grandmother died on christmas eve, the day before christ was born. kind of hard. she was a wonderful lady, though, and she lived a long life, and finally made it home to God after 97 years, the last 20 of which she spent without a husband.

and you know? I know I only see her, maybe, twice or three times a year... but I miss her.

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along
