If I Die Young

You know I think one dead giveaway that a person is growing old is the fact that little things can make her tear up. I'll give you a clue to whom I am referring to. The one blogging here. ME!

I easily get teary-eyed these days. Little things like a TV ad, an inspiring quote, a story about someone I don't even know, a song. You name it and chances are I cried a little over it. I am listening to a song entitled If I Die Young by The Band Perry right this very minute. You know when the intro of the song played, I got emotional. Here is the opening lyrics of the song...

If I die young bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

Made me think of passing away and leaving the love ones behind. And it reminded me of my loved ones who already passed away.

Yes, I am turning gray and it's sooner than later.
