| 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 com back
Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,
You can turn your back on tomorrrow and live yesterday,
You can remember her and only that she's gone,
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back,
I know it's hard to lose a loved one, but they would want us to go on living and I feel we do a dis-service to their memory if we choose to die emotionally and spiritually when they die.

| Thank you Lu, I needed that. You see My daughter passed away today. She was 43 and my oldest daughter. I will miss her so much as I know you miss your daughter. But she is at peace now. |
