About Me

Trying to remember that there is always a reason, always something that makes you smile during the day- recognizing the event, person or situation that made you smile will make your day seem that much better.

Just wanted to say...

hi-
I wanted to make sure you knew...
that today..like every day..I thought of you...
In the whisper of the wind,
The laughter that surrounded me...
Thought about sharing the frustrations of the day....
of turning to you for advice...
Thought of sharing the smiles...
The sight of the leaves turning orange and gold,
The blue sky that went on forever
The sun sinking into horizon leaving wisps of neon across the sky.
The smell of the campfire from the house next door...
The chill of fall on the air
And the slight smell of rain that lingers in the air tonight.
Talking to you about what's going on...
Knowing that you would dispense some sage advice to help me put things into perspective...
When i get into a rut..
I think of you...
I think of your smiles..
The wind circles me like your arms used to,
allowing me to release the anxiety and stress into the universe...
There are no easy answers and every problem has a solution...
You taught  me that...
You also taught me not to miss out on the good things no matter what you are dealing with...
I am trying to remember that...
Trying to live that..
I hope that I can make you proud...
knowing that you are walking next me...
helping me
guiding me...
loving me..
even if I will never feel your arms around me again...

  1. I am not sure if you meant this as poetry, but it read like that to me. So-o-o-o beautiful and aching.

    I love you my friend. xo J

  2. I don't think you have to worry Nic. He's proud! How couldn't he be?! You're a good person inside and that is what counts most. Hugs and Love!
