Rest In Peace

Today I am praying for peace and comfort to surround a special family while they say their last goodbyes to a wonderful woman, wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend.
As I was hugging my cousin at the funeral my heart broke for her. I cannot imagine losing my Grandmother. Sometimes life just does not seem fair. Just another reminder to hold your loved ones close because you just never know what can happen. Life is so fragile.

She is Gone
You can shed tears that she is gone
or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back
or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see her
or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.

You can remember her and only that she's gone
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.

You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
or you can do what she'd want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
