My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. I don’t understand why when I needed you most, you would leave me.” The Lord replied, “My son. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it, “Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you’d walk with me all the way. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. There's nothing like a handwritten card, small gift, or photo from someone you care about.Īnd speaking of playlists, why not send him a playlist of songs that mean something special to you? I have about 135 playlists on my profile page, from "Songs About Smiling and Smiles" to "Songs About Crushes and Crushing on Someone" to "Happy and Uplifting Songs to Put You in a Good Mood."ĭon't forget to live your life when you're away from Toby.One night a man had a dream. Don't forget that snail mail is special too.

I hope you can connect with him during the school year via Instagram, MarcoPolo, Snapchat, or whatever social media platform works for you both. M - So sorry to hear about how much you miss your Toby. I'll do my cryin' in the rain - The Everly Brothers, isn't on your listįlourishAnyway (author) from USA on November 08, 2018: I have added your this song suggestion to not only this playlist but also "Getting Over You Playlist: Songs About Struggling to Forget an Ex." Have a great day! But, we had our one sweet moment - our forever.Įugene - Thanks for commenting. Like in the song, we just weren't fated to be together. The song that always makes me stop and think about her and what could have been is "Who Wants to Live Forever" by Queen. In the years since, I've searched, but never found any trace of her.Īnd, while my life went on, I've never forgotten her. We knew we'd probably never see each other again and promised to always remember, and find each other in the next life. The day I watched her board the plane crying is among the worst days of my life. But, her family abruptly left the country and disappeared. We'd spend ours days dreaming about a future together. I met my soulmate while living in Europe as a teenager. Put an old photo and story about her out on Facebook and/or Twitter and see if you get results. It makes me wonder whether your young friend at the time had parents who worked in government service (diplomatic corp, CIA, for example). Oldskooll - How sad that you and she parted like this suddenly with no way to reconnect. Missing someone you know you can never see her, hold her, hug her, someone you can never look in her eyes and tell her how you love her is excruciating. Have you ever experienced a cut caused by a paper on your fingers? It doesn't look much, but it burns deep down inside and burns bad. She couldn't survive a heart attack 7 years ago when she was all alone at home. We were together for six brilliant years. I never forgot, nor stopped loving my first girlfriend. I understand how you feel to lose someone dear to you. I'm so sorry her passing has caused you so much pain. TheRealFarshad - Thank you for sharing your memories of her. Thanks for sharing a part of your life with us.įlourishAnyway (author) from USA on April 21, 2020: I am thinking of military families, those who serve as diplomats, etc. Some families have no choice in the matter.

Time does heal the initial pain of losing loved ones, hard as that is to believe when we first lose loved ones.Īs to your daughter, having a home base and long-lasting friendships, she is fortunate. The songs that touched my heart after losing loved ones may not even have been ones like this, but ones that we used to sing together or had other meanings. "Tears in Heaven" and others are so poignant.

Peggy Woods from Houston, Texas on May 10, 2020: I’m just looking through these songs because my husband of 30 years passed away 10 months ago, and I’m just not okįlourishAnyway (author) from USA on May 11, 2020: When you lose someone who has been so close to you for that long, it's understandable that you'd be grieving tremendously. I am going to listen to these songs, great songs.įlourishAnyway (author) from USA on June 20, 2020:ĭawn, I'm so sorry about your loss. What a beautiful collection, so emotional.
