Today I died and went to heaven, instead of having God's presence within my soul, I had his presence all around me; It was so beautiful and peaceful that I cried and then I felt the absence of me; With sorrow and pain I asked for God's peace and came to realize that the absence of me was really the absence of all of you, for I am an extension of you and you of me; So I renewed my vows of love for you, to love, honor and respect you for all eternity; Because God's presence is in the souls of everyone on earth, I too am bound to you through God; When you are sad I am sad, when you are happy I am happy; when you feel love I feel love and all that you need shall be here in heaven waiting for you when it is time for you to enter eternity with me; May the pain of my absence diminish into fond and loving memories of a time gone by and please know that I live within you with God's peace all around me. With all my love I pray that God's peace surround each and every one of you. AMOR to the entire family
