and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

Remember, the only thing in life that is guaranteed is that one day it will end. God Bless him for living all those years, do not fret, just try and be by his side and tell him all you wanted to all these years. If you do not get that rare opportunity to tell him anything, don't worry he already knows!  |
I too am religious and also agree with a big AMEN. Another point here, if you have not already done so talk to him about his service to our country. Sit with him look at the pictures, at his service medals (he does have them), listen to this example of living history. My grandfather is also a WWII vet and has amazing tales of being shot down. Your grandpa is an American Hero and you should be very proud.
God bless him, and please thank him for his service to his country from one who has followed the same path and knows the sacrafice it took to go serve.
