"If"
If our mother was here, would we all be acting like we are?
Not talking to each other, having ill feelings towards one another.
Holding in these feelings like we do helps none of us.
Above all else we are family.
You know none of us are perfect, we all at one time or another have made mistakes.
And sometimes we say things we are sorry for later,but life goes on and it happens in the best of families.
The past is the past and thats where it should stay,we need to live our life for the now.
We still have each other and none of us know for sure when it will be our last.
So we should just let the past be.
