"Life is like a mirror-if we frown at it, it frowns back at us; if we smile, it returns the greeting."(Anon)

I attended a funeral yesterday for one of my Grandmothers. One of the things that people talked about was her eyes. She would take your hand, kiss it, look you straight in the eye, and tenderly say "I love you". With that smile, and those eyes, she would make you melt. There were about 100 people in attendance and , as people stood up to talk about memories they shared, the smile and the eyes were always the main focus. The Pastor asked everyone in the audience to raise their hand if they had received this gift from her. Everyone simultaneously raised their hand and smiled. Grandma couldn't move around much in the end, but she didn't need too. She moved you with her smile and those beautiful eyes. Grandma never frowned in the mirror!
