“Never stop. Never stop fighting. Never stop dreaming. And don’t be afraid of wearing your heart on your sleeve - in declaring the films that you love, the films that you want to make, the life that you’ve had, and the lives you can help reflect in cinema. For myself, for a long time… maybe I felt inauthentic or something, I felt like my voice wasn’t worth hearing, and I think everyone’s voice is worth hearing. So if you’ve got something to say, say it from the rooftops.” - Tom Hiddleston

Pa, I miss you dearly

I see you in my dreams

We go and get McFlurries

We come back in a hurry

I remember going to the Store

Riding along in that old Lincoln Navigator

I remember it all

All of those days

And so to end this, I pray

I pray that you are well

And you are not alone

For with Aunt Sophie you do roam

I wish you the best and I end with this

Even though I see you every now and then

I just want to wish you love and care

Amen

My Grandfather passed away two years ago and I just wanted to write this for him. I miss him dearly and I wish him well.
