Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Dear Nick,
I never got to know your little girl, nor even you as a man. But I remember a little blond boy that I loved dearly . He used to call me Aunt Carol, and although many years have passed, I often think of you and your siblings, and keep you in my prayers. Know that you are in my heart at this time. Aunt Carol

I wish there were some magic words I could say to help ease your pain, but from experience I know that only time can do that and it take it time. I do wish you comfort and peace of mind knowing that your loved one is now out of harms way, and that you were left with one of God's greatest gifts.....MEMORIES....God knows I don't know what I personally would do without them. When I lost my 2 kids 13 mths apart due to drugs I was numb for no other word to explain it, so my heart really goes out to you. I wish comfort and peace at this time of your great loss. Bless you and your family.
