Just Smile... :)
"I hope that as every day goes by that nothing takes the smile from you're face cause truly there is nothing on this planet or in any universe that is more beautiful...
If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears will prevent you from seeing the stars. Don't let anything or anyone take away your smile. cause thats the light of my life"

They are not there, they did not die.
Too often people say that they ARE a body and that they HAVE a soul. I believe that we ARE a soul and that we HAVE a body. You only really know someone by understanding 'who' they are and by loving them for the person they are and not what they look like. We communicate our soul by using our body...eg feelings, actions, emotions, language etc. Without a body it may seem that a person no longer exists or it may feel as though the world is empty without them...
I believe that even though we may have lost them physically, their soul is still alive. They have become our motivation, our will power, our strength, our courage, our determination, our love of life....they help us to become everything we struggled to be before.
The love, the smiles, the tears, the laughs, the fights....all the memories are now a part of us. They are all the things that make us so incredibly happy and somehow at the same time so sad and torn up inside. Just remember that you may be missing somebody...but you have gained a forever angel.
"Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand westerly winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on surf and snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn swell and rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet gulls in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Please do not stand at my coffin and cry;
I am not there, I did not die."
Remember, those whose lives you have touched and whose have touched yours are always a part of you....even if the encounters were less than you would have wished. It is the content of the encounter that is more important than the form ♥
Let the memories of our loved ones live on forever xx

Live in the present
Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone.
Do not be troubled by the future, for it has not yet come.
Live in the present and make is so beautiful that it will be worth remembering.

May you always feel loved
May you find serenity and tranquility in a world you may not always understand.
May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength
to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism.
Always know that there are those whose love and understanding will always be there,
even when you feel most alone.
May you discover enough goodness in others to believe in a world of peace.
May a kind word, a reassuring touch, and a warm smile be yours every day of your life,
And may you give these gifts as well as receive them.
Remember the sunshine when the storm seems unending.
Teach love to those who hate, and let that love embrace you as you go out into the world.
May the teachings of those you admire become part of you, so that you may call upon them.
Remember, those whose lives you have touched and whose have touched yours are always a part of you,
even if the encounters were less than you would have wished.
It is the content of the encounter that is more important than the form.
May you not become too concerned with material matters,
but instead place immeasurable value on the goodness in your heart.
Find time each day to see beauty and love in the world around you.
Realize that each person has limitless abilities, but each of us is different in our own way.
What you feel you lack in the present may become one of your strengths in the future.
May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility.
Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience.
May you find enough inner strength to determine your own worth by yourself,
And not be dependent on another's judgment of your accomplishments.
May you always feel loved.

Too Often...
Too often we don't realize what we have until its gone
Too often we're too stubborn to say "Sorry, I was wrong"
Too often it seems we hurt the ones closest to our hearts,
And too often we let the most foolish things tear us apart...
