I came by this song while listening to the radio one night, what hit me was the phrase "stay humble and kind". I sobbed quietly in my room. At the time i was facing a hard time, with so many things going on, i just broke down.
The song said something about no matter what you have become, successful for example, you should always stay humble and kind. And it also said about not cheating and lying, bitterness keeping you from flying.
I really felt the song.
When i finally had access to the internet in town, i searched for the song and downloaded a lyric video. The lyrics shocked me because one verse sang "Visit grandpa every chance you get, and none of it it wasted time".
Immediately i recalled my late grandpa's face, he passed away just this last June. I still miss him a lot. And like the song said, I visited him every chance i get, and none of it is wasted time. I miss him still.
Before he passed away, i had a dream about him. In the dream, he was talking to me and holding a 'peace lily' plant.
His words are still fresh in my mind.
He said that "life is short, Like this flower, it is only young once, then it wll wrinkle and die". He also showed a young shoot and an old and wrinkling plant.
Until this day, I remember his message. I guess it meant something, because i am not the type to go for adventure. I guess he wanted me to enjoy myself and be the person that i always wanted to.
