Miss Me But Let Me Go

When I come to the end of the road
and the sun has set for me
I want no ries in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little, but not for long
and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me but let me go.

For this is a journey that we all must take
And each must go alone.
It's all part of the Master's plan,
A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick of heart.
Go to the friends we know.
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds -
Miss Me But Let Me Go

My Friend Julia Toula - You were a remarkable woman, very caring and full of life; you were always so thoughtful.

People Come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON...it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spritually. They may seem like a Godsend and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. SOmetimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. Sometimes they die. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfulled, their work done. Your need has been answered, and now its time to move on.
When people come into your life for a SEASON...Its because your turn has come to share, grown or learn. They bring you an expreience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, Its real, but only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; things you must build upon in order to have a solid foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
Julia - my friend, I will miss you dearly. It was an my honor to be part of your life.
