Do not walk behind me Boots...

Do not walk in front of me Boots...
I may not follow you....
Walk by my side Boots...
and be my friend....

No one is ever truly alone,
Those who live no more,
Whom we loved,
Echo still within our thoughts,
Our words, our hearts.
And what they did
And who they were
becomes part of all that we are,
Forever.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glint on sow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there I did not die.

I think that there is only one absolute truth , that all who are born must some day also die. that on our lifes journey we endeavour to leave warm and happy memories in the hearts and minds of those who pass our way.
I dont post here often ' I seem to have the unhappy habit of putting my foot in my mouth. I just hope that you will allow me share those words above with you, because I truly believe.
For you Pim and SI and all those who have lost someone you love close your eyes and see that loved one sitting in the chair next to you, having the conversations and quiet times you had. Soon time will allow you to recall without that awful sense of loss and pain.
Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers always

I also meant to reassure that if for whatever reason someone doesnt post they are not forgotten, I often find myself thinking of Em and others, words pop into my head.
Gone but never forgotten

I know that this is hard for others to handle . Perhaps that is their fault and not yours. Don't let anyone change you. KC
