Now...yeah those are both pretty depressing songs. But at the same time, they are empowering.

Also,  yesterday I went to my grandparents house and had the time of my life. We sat around and looked at pictures from when they were around thirty. Listening to my grandfather laugh and tell stories about all of the pictures filled my heart with the type of joy that can only come from being completely selfless and giving your entire heart to a moment. It could kind of be described as feeling "infinite".      After we looked through the pictures, I just examined my grandfather's hands. Some boys only have calluses on their hands from leisurely activities like drumming or playing guitar, but his hands... are callused from actual work. Days spent out in the sun and heat doing nothing but gardening and excruciating manual labor. Working in plants, war time, climbing power poles in the dead of winter to give people their electricity back and much much more that I don't even know. This man, is unbelievable. The time that I spent holding his hands and examining them, told me something. I learned that there are not any men like him left. I thought I had one, but I didn't. I don't think I will ever meet a man who is so selfless that he would give up meals so his family could eat, or a man who is so sensitive to others feelings that he carries a handkerchief in his pocket in case he sees a lady crying, or a man who makes such an effort to remember every one he meets that it tears him up with he comes across someone and can't remember their name, or a man who is as wise and honest. I want to marry a man who knows how a lady needs to be treated, one who even if he doesn't go to church all of the time knows what's wrong and what's right and lives the way God wants us to live. I want a man with hands that tell stories, and someone who is smart enough to know that you wont get anywhere in life unless you man up and work for it. After examining his hands, we talked about hand shakes. He said that you can tell a lot about a man from his handshake. He and my older brother, Andy then showed me their handshakes and how I should shake someone's hand. Andy's handshake that he gives a man almost broke my hand but he said that he often has men tell them that his handshake shows he's respectable. My grandfather on the other hand, wouldn't shake my hand the way that he would shake a man's. I begged him to but he said he was afraid he would hurt me, and I knew he was right. Once, he got a job because of his handshake. After entering a meeting about a job, he shook the man's hand and the man said, " You know, when you walked in I knew you'd work hard for me but with a handshake like that.. I'll find you a job. " I want someone like that.

He would go out of his way to make someone happy, no matter what it took.  I hope that I'm wrong about there not being anyone like him left because every girl deserves someone like him.

Happy Fathers Day, Papa.
