I just watched a video of my late grandmother and my grandpa and my mom and my dad when they were still together a year before I was born. And it was surreal because my grandma died when I was 3 or 4 and I never really see any videos of her also my mom and dad were together and if you knew my mom and dad this video would be weird for you too. Anyway they're all down in the holler with the rest of my grandma and grandpas family in West Virginia celebrating Christmas. You can see that my grandma loves her whole family with all her heart and (me at least) want to just walk through the video and warn her that she's going to die of cancer in just a few years. She had cancer twice and I don't know if this was before the first time or not but I also know that she adored me wen she was alive so if it was I think that her leaving her sickness behind to enjoy her grandchild was an irrefutably good decision. This song (to me) is about how much love humans are capable of and how ironic it is because it's intangible and eventually washes away. To me it's a coincidence because It reminds me of the spirit of Christmas (although I don't believe in god) all of the memories I have of my family being together and being happy seem so much better because I was young and I didn't know any better. We all don't know any better and I think this song is saying to savor that while you still can because there's always gonna be more to know but it will only make those past memories even sweeter when you do. That's why I put this song on immediately after watching that video and I didn't even know it yet. Soon enough you will become apart of the naivety of the past so you might as well live the part and capitalize on your existence if not just in the name of the ones you love or once loved who aren't around anymore
