A Parent's Love, A New Years Touch

I sat around today spending time and laughing around with family. A new year, 2013, with endless opportunities and adventures to experience. Well. I sat down, ready to work on a worksheet. Music is always my motivation.

I'm on YouTube and after a few minutes of browsing around, I decide to listen to Unfailing Love by Chris Tomlin. I go back to my worksheet but the music I'm hearing isn't from Unfailing Love. Curious and slightly annoyed, I open up my page and see this video.


I sat there and as I watched, my eyes slowly welled up with tears, tears that never fell. I was touched. My mind wandered back to Saturday, December 22, 2012 when I was caroling and spending time at a senior home in Westminster and how some of their stories were very like this. All the love they poured out to put their all into little jobs  which in turn gave them the money they spent on their children- for education, shelter, and clothes. Those children grew up, many very successful, and in return of the love they had received from an infant to an adult,  they dropped off their parents in a senior home. 

My mom and dad has done so much for me. All the love they have poured down on me, to help me grow into the person I am today is amazing. A parent's love is unfading, as should the love of the child.
