Sometimes we are only given a few minutes to be with the one we love, and, thousands of hours to think of them.

Below is how a bereaved mother answered the question:
Because of you, I love a little more.
Because of you, I take time to give an extra kiss good-bye.
Because of you, I have a new favorite song,
Because of you, there may be dust on the window sill,
and I don’t care.
Because of you, I live today,
before I worry about tomorrow.
Because of you, I don’t give up quite as fast.
Because of you, I still believe in rainbows.
Because of you, now I can help or listen more.
Because of you…
