Twenty one seconds, what’s in twenty-one seconds?
O not much…
Only the best things in life:
The first sounds of a newly born baby, that fundamental part of life. When Grandpa; Get’s his first hug from his grandchildren. The first time a grandchild chooses to be comforted by Grandpa, because the tears are too big to take to Mom or Dad.
Twenty-one seconds can bring all of this and more.
A call from your children to see if all is OK.
A driveway cleared of snow in the early morning hours.
A decision to have the grass cut and trimmed, because it’s too hard for the old bodies, which have changed over time to continue with the yard work.
So many “twenty-one seconds” in my life, my heart finds joy in each second given and taken by loving children and beautiful grandchildren.
A new grandson announced by a phone call from Panama.
A family afar calls to open away to see grandchildren to long unseen.
A piano recital invite for a special grandchild.
Twenty-one Seconds…
Twenty-one seconds that will never be forgotten, for its engraved on my MP3 player of my heart.
The emotion of a glad heart, you know the feeling when you can’t breathe and your hands shake. You know the feeling; it only lasted twenty-one seconds, but will play for all eternity.
