Pa: An Inspiration to All

September 19, 2012

Not a day goes by that I don't think of him. His smile that I strive to see and his stories of times past, that I listen to with patience and intrigue. As he sits, dog on his lap, and speaks with the voice of courage and love, I make no sound to insure I miss nothing of his unforgettable tales. Even though he may not be able to see me through clear eyes, he knows that my love for him will not fade and I will not leave him when he is telling the tales of his life.

My grandfather, "Pa", is an inspiration to all who meet him. I wrote this so that more people will understand the life people have had before us, and the woes and worries they have carried. Next time an elder of your's tells you a story...listen.
