Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven&#039;t found it yet, keep looking. Don&#039;t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you&#039;ll know when you find it.<br /> Steve Jobs


The last time I saw him he was a young little boy
the last time I saw him he was playing with his toys
last time I saw him he thought he was a man
last time I saw him he was hanging with his friends
last time I saw him he was playing football
last time I saw him it's homecoming in fall
last time I saw him it was graduation
last time I saw him was a college visit on vacation
last time I saw him in college scoring touchdowns
last time I saw him his wife wearing a gown
last time I saw him he was holding my grandchild
damn i guess i haven't seen him in a while
last time I saw him he was only 3
all these years I have been overseas
fighting for my country the US of A
last time I saw him he said, “Daddy please stay”
I’m ready to go home on the plane today
as the plane lands tears roll down my face
As I walk down the stairs I look and see them all
a little boy runs in my arms asks if I’m his grandpa
last time I saw him doesn’t matter anymore
because I’m here to stay daddy already won the war.
