One of Janine's favorite quotes is:"ok i got this in an e-mail and made a few changes but its very touching:
I grew up with practical parents. A mother, God love her, who washed aluminum foil after she cooked in it, then reused it... A father who was happier getting old shoes fixed than buying new ones. There were always leftovers from dinner cause she always cooked extra - just in case someone stopped by.
Their marriage was good, their dreams focused. Their best friends lived barely a wave away. I can see them now, Dad in shorts, tee shirt and a hat and Mom in a house dress, cooking utensils in one hand, and dish-towel in the other. It was the time for fixing things. A curtain rod, the kitchen radio, screen door, the oven door, the hem in...Expand for more
a dress Things we keep. It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. All that re-fixing, eating, renewing, I wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste meant affluence. Throwing things away meant you knew there'd always be more.
But then my mother died, in the warmth of the hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't any more.
Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away...never to return. So... while we have it... it's best we love it.... and care for it... and fix it when it's broken....and heal it when it's sick.
This is true. for marriage..... and old cars.... and children with bad report cards..... and dogs with bad hips.... and aging parents..... and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it and because we are better because of them. Some things we keep. Like a best friend that moved away or a classmate we grew up with.
There are just some things that make life important, like people we know who are special....... and so, we keep them close!
Good family and friends are like stars.... You don't always see them, but you know they are always there. Keep them close!".
