Remember Me This Way

In 4th grade, my music teacher had us sing Remember Me This Way by Jordan Hill.


"Every now and then
We find a special friend
Who never lets us down
Who understands it all
Reaches out each time you fall
You're the best friend that I've found
I know you can't stay
A part of you will never ever go away
Your heart will stay

* I'll make a wish for you
And hope it will come true
That life would just be kind
To such a gentle mind
If you lose your way
Think back on yesterday
Remember me this way
Remember me this way..."


These lyrics were ingrained in me so much that I still get this song randomly stuck in my head, and since have analyzed the words a bit more.  Truer words have never been spoken.  I have moved away from my family and closest friends but while we are apart I do wish and pray for them consistently.  Even for the ones that I have lost communications with and fallen away from.  A hope surges through me that they know they are never truly alone.  They are always in my thoughts and heart.
