I thought on the long trip back here about how someday she might be the grandparent in the same situation and hoped she too had such a happy experience and wished that I could see her joy and peace in having just such a simple and good thing happen to somebody that she loved. BUT, we cannot go on forever, the way I look at it is to squeeze the juice out of each GOOD moment granted us and replay it back when we have time. Let the bad stuff go and try to make the lives of others a little better for your passing by.
One definition of success is to have made one life breathe easier.

Excellent post Gracie.
