Grieve Not

Grieve not… nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of me as though I were beside you. I loved you so… 'twas Heaven here with you.

After Glow

I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one. I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when day is done. I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun of happy memories that I leave behind when day is done.

Serenity Prayer

God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change…. Courage to change the things I can and Wisdom to know the difference.

Amen
