My Song Memories

Number 1 and its accompanying memory

Just the title of this song makes me shiver with pleasure and joy and love. I Will Always Love You. Such a powerful string of words. Such deep meaning. I have heard this song play a thousand times and each time I get teary eyed with the love I have for my daughter, Debra, coming to the surface. I have often said, "No man should love anything or anyone as much as I love this little girl." I have truly searched for a definition of the word Love that could explain the feelings and emotions for the love I have for this girl. I seem to be saying I cry a lot but what else can I say. I do. I have that much love in my life and I am just so damned happy for it. What am I supposed to do, laugh? I have looked into the face of this girl since she was a baby and just yesterday she visited me with my granddaughter. I found myself looking into her face again as she was reading the paper and the love came bursting out from within. Eyes got teary with both pride and love. She is so special. I hope at least one other person has had the good fortune to experience the kind of love I have for my daughter. My granddaughter is going to have the same good fortune as her dad, David, loves her every bit as much as I do Deb. I can see it in his eyes and actions. We are so lucky. If I die tomorrow, I have been to the pinnacle of happiness through my daughter. Honey, I Will Always Love You and you know it.
