my grandpa died saturday night..heart attack..we all believe it was a broken heart though..he hasnt been the same since grandma died..when i found out i like collapsed..it hit me sooo hard..ive never cried so hard in my life..ive been so depressed lately n i just want to be happy..i'm slowly getting there..last night it seemed impossible though..today im starting to feel a lil more like myself.

you know..the wake was today n it really got me thinking..everyone told me that "cookie" couldnt say one bad thing about anyone n noone could say anything bad about him cuz he ws such a good guy..it amazes me hopw much love he had for my grandma..he couldnt last without her..good to know that there is still true love out there.

at the wake i was extremely upset..but after a while i was able to laugh..havent really been able to lately..so it was kinda nice..i was lookin at pics of him n on one of the posters of him there was a poem n it couldnt have described him any better..n i decided that..i wanna be more like this..so that when i die..people would be tellin my grandchildren this.

Drinking From My Saucer

I've never made a fortune
and it's probably too late now.
But I don't worry about that much,
I'm happy anyhow.

And as I go along life's way,
I'm reaping better than I sowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

I don't have a lot of riches,
and sometimes the going's tough.
But I've got loved ones around me,
and that makes me rich enough.

I thank God for his blessings,
and the mercies He's bestowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'cause my cup has overflowed.

I remember times when things went wrong,
My faith wore somewhat thin.
But all at once the dark clouds broke,
and the sun peeped through again.

So God, help me not to gripe about
the tough rows that I've hoed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage,
when the way grows steep and rough.
I'll not ask for other blessings,
I'm already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy,
to help others bear their loads.
Then I'll keep drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.
