One Sweet World

Every day that goes by, I find a bit more clarity.  I learned a neat thing about my Mom while she was sick.  One day, I was over there hanging out with her and I decided to ask her 25 random questions.  One of the question was what her favorite song.  Without hesitation, she replied - Smile by Frank Sinatra.  I never knew this about her.  She had never mentioned it before - even my Dad didn’t know this.  I think this was one of the many little gifts she gave us before she went to heaven.  The lyrics have continued to comfort me daily.  -

“Smile though your heart is aching 
Smile even though it’s breaking 
When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by 
If you smile through your fear and sorrow 
Smile and maybe tomorrow 
You’ll see the sun come shining through for you”
