The song "love me with all of your heart" will always remind me of my father. When he was still alive he loves singing this song-- this is one of his favorite songs. I am not just sure who sung this song but definitely my dad's favorite. During family gatherings he will always request and sing this song in the videoke. I miss my dad!

It's really hard to forget people who created a great impact in our lives and even through songs they memories will always linger. I will still celebrate my dad's birthday on the 2nd of November despite his not here anymore. I'll listen to this music and his other favorites on that day. I missed my grandparents too. Both my mom and my dad's parents were all deceased.

I will forever cherish all the good memories with my grandparents-- all the lessons and wisdom that they taught me will always live forever. I am so lucky to experience my grandparents love and care.

here the lyrics of the song."The Impossible Dream"
from MAN OF LA MANCHA (1972)
music by Mitch Leigh and lyrics by Joe Darion
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause
And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star
the meaning here are understandable..

I Dont hear it nowadays but everytime it comes to my mind I am reminded of my late brother which is the Handel's Messiah. My brother was very fond of Western Classicals and our house used to be strewn with sheets filled with music scores. If any of us sang a wrong note he would bring the whole roof down - a very impatient creature if I may say so! He was also a Beethoven fan and his favourite was Symphony No. 9.

There are a couple of songs that remind me of my Dad, Amazing Grace - he loved this song and was always very mobed by it. Also Danny Boy as my Dad was from Ireland and whenever he heard this song he would get a faraway look in his eys and I would know he was thinking of his Irish home.
