People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person.. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, This person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, Things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, Love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
Thank you for being a part of my life, Whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.
For Mom And Dad
"MY MOM IS A SURVIVOR"
My mom is a survivor, or so I've heard it said. But I can hear her crying at night, when all other are in bed. I watch her lay awake at night, and go to hold her hand. She doesn't know I'm with her, to help to understand. But like the sand on the beach, that never washes away... I watch over my surviving mom, who thinks of me each day. She wears a smile for others.. a smile of disguise! but through heaven's door I see, my mom tries to cope with death, to keep my memory alive, but anyone who knows her knows, It is the way to survive. As I watch over my surviving mom, through heaven's open door... I try to tell her that angels, protect me forever more. I know that doesn't help her.. or ease the burden she bears. So if you get the chance, go and visit her, and show her that you care., for no matter what she says... no matter what she feels, my surviving mom has a broken heart, that time won't ever heal. LOVE you MOM.
"MY DAD IS A SURVIVOR"
My Dad is a survivor too which is not a surprise to me. He's allways been like a lighthouse that helps you across a stormy sea.
But, I walk with my Dad each day to lift him when he's down. I wipe the tears he hides from others, he cries when no one is around.
I watch him sit up late at night with my picture in his hands. He cries as he tries to grieve alone, and wish he could understand.
My Dad is like a tower of strengh he's the greatest of them all! but, there are times when he need to cry... please be there when he falls.
Hold his hand and pat his shoulder.. and tell him It's Okey. be his strength when he is sad, help him mourn in his own way.
Now as I watch over my precious Dad, from heaven up above... I'm so proud he's a survivor... and, I can still feel his love.
Rick I MISS YOU!! Love Mom Our Song To You "Who You'd Be Today"
Sunny days seem to hurt the most. I wear the pain like a heavy coat. I feel you everywhere I go. I see your smile, I see your face, I hear you laughin' in the rain. I still can't believe you're gone.
It ain't fair: you died too young, Like the story that had just begun, But death tore the pages all away. God knows how I miss you, All the hell that I've been through, Just knowin' no-one could take your place. An' sometimes I wonder, Who'd you be today?
Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams? Settle down with a family, I wonder what would you name your babies? Some days the sky's so blue, I feel like I can talk to you, An' I know it might sound crazy.
It ain't fair: you died too young, Like the story that had just begun, But death tore the pages all away. God knows how I miss you, All the hell that I've been through, Just knowin' no-one could take your place. An' sometimes I wonder, Who you'd be today?
Today, today, today. Today, today, today.
[Instrumental Break]
Sunny days seem to hurt the most. I wear the pain like a heavy coat. The only thing that gives me hope, Is I know I'll see you again some day.
Some day, some day, some day.
When I heard this song for the first time. It was like Kenny know what I was feeling and what I was thinking. Thank you Kenny Chesney for writing the word that I couldn't say.

The Rick Germain Automotive Scholarship fund. Rickie scholarship fund has helped our family cope with the loss of Rick. If you would like to donate you can call Sheryl Germain @ 603-895-9591 We need to stop Road Rage in America. There need to be laws on the books of all the states. That authorities couldn't do anything to the person that cut Rick off because there was no contact. Thats the Law in FL. I would like to make poeple aware of Road Rage and how stupid it is. And that it could take someones life. Next time it could be someone you love.
