Ok, here's a question to ponder...
I was reading our local paper a few weeks ago...and came across a wonderful story by Mitch Albom. In this story he asks the question..."If you had one day to spend with someone who's gone...Who would it be? What would you do?"....Pretty powerfull huh? Think hard about this, and I'd LOVE to hear your response.

my friend died in a car accident a year ago. I talked to him the day he died, and it was just simple stuff. I would have wanted to work out with him, play some hockey, and just spend adequate time with him. It sucks that our last words together were about work.

It would be my dad who died 2001. I would go fishing with him one last time and take my kids so he could see them. Fishing together was always our time to just be together and talk if we wanted to or just be together and not talk. It didn't matter if we actually caught any fish, just sitting in the boat on the water together was all that we were really there for. I really miss that.
He died when I was pregnant with my son. He never got to see him or know he's named after him. My daughter was only 1 1/2 yrs old, so she doesn't remember him. It's been 5 1/2 years since he's been gone, but it still feels like yesterday.
I Love You Daddy!

I would like to spend one more day with my Mom that died in 2002. I would love to know her as a person instead of just Mom. I wish I had listened more to her and been less concerned with my own day to day issues and preoccupied. I would just spend the day listening to her and asking questions to things I can never have answered now. Too late you realize how amazing and wonderful a person is. It is far too easy to take someone for granted until they are gone forever. I would love to spend one more day with my Mom.

If it's on the assumption that the person died and then came back just to spend a day with me, I would ask the person what it's like being dead and did he look forward to going back to being dead after this one day?

I'd have to say pass...WHY? Well.. while 1 more day might seem great you inevitably have to go through losing them again....no thank you...I'll keep my memories that are precious and sacred in my heart and accept the loss because I doubt my heart could with stand going through such a loss again.

i would probably pick my husbands grandmother....i never personally met her but i have heard so much about her that i would of loved to of met her!!!!!
or my grandmother and ask her all the questions that i have thought about since she has passed...like what my mom was like when she was younger....
or my grandfather...i never met him either cause he died when my mom was like 10 but from what i have heard about him and knowing my grandmother (who was awsome and never dated or remarried after he died) he had to be one great person too!!!!
wow....that really is one powerful question!!!!
