Reminder of the Holidays

I think one of the hardest times of the holidays is not being able to share it with people you have lost. I still cannot believe how long it has been since my friend is gone but I still feel the same. I had friends in high school but Clint was that friend that couldn't be replaced. He knew me and knew how to boost me as a friend. I don't have that anymore in fact maybe it is because of being busy but I don't talk to any 'guy' friends anymore. Sure I have a wife, kids, and family but when you have had that boost as a friend for over 30 years of your life and then it is gone what do you then? This year we lost an artist Chester Bennington and his music has helped me overcome so many challenges in my life and his loss in this world is sad too. One more light gone and yes we notice and we do CARE! Hug those around you and enjoy this time and moment....

Should've stayed. Were the signs I ignored?
Can I help you not to hurt anymore?
We saw brilliance when the world was asleep.
There are things that we can have but can't keep.

If they say...
Who cares if one more light goes out?
In the sky of a million stars,
It flickers, flickers.
Who cares when someone's time runs out?
If a moment is all we are,
Or quicker, quicker.
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do.

The reminders pull the floor from your feet.
In the kitchen, one more chair than you need, oh.
And you're angry. And you should be. It's not fair.
Just cause you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there.

If they say...
Who cares if one more light goes out?
In the sky of a million stars,
It flickers, flickers.
Who cares when someone's time runs out?
If a moment is all we are,
Or quicker, quicker.
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do.

Well I do.

Well I do.
