I Saw You Today

I heard this song yesterday while driving in town. For the very first time I didn't know if I should smile or cry. It sounds as though his wife died and he saw someone who looked like her in a yard. And it brought back all those warm feelings he had for her while she was alive. He's fortunate, because sometimes time changes how one views the past. Sometimes a realization hits that you really have nothing to offer, and the person could never be happy or excited with/by you, even if she or he ever were able to make the leap, which really makes it a moot point. I look at my twin boys who are adults now each time my mind dares wander to "what if's." And then I automatically know where I stand. The daily reminder has been good for me...snapping me into reality and futility.
