When it first came out back in 1993, this song made me cry.
(see it on Youtube)
That was before I was a dad. Now that I’m a dad — especially the father of a boy who was so sick a years ago — this song still works its magic on me. It hits you… your kids grow up, fast! It is so important it is to slow down and sit and chat and play with your kids while they are kids. But the modern world seems to be a civilisation of alienation. There are too many “things per person” to attend to… and our kids miss out.
