Those we love don't go away

Smile.
Today would be a wonderful day not to take life so seriously.
Today may end up the way you prefer - and it may not.
Happiness is not about being a winner -
it's about being gentle with life -
being gentle with yourself.
Let life be a dance,
and choose the kind of dance you want for today -
perhaps a gentle loving dance.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.
- Marianne Williamson

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.

So many faces in and out of my life; some will last, some will be just now and then.
Life is a series of hellos and good byes, I'm afraid it's time for goodbye again.
