Continuation of 1-5-10 post, update 01-17-10 & 3-15-10. I realize we need to keep memories of those we love alive.

We need to get things together, get photos together and scan them in of those who mean so much to us, to have them safe. You cannot know when those photos and memories will come in handy; when you'll NEED to remember them.

Tell those that are close to you how you feel about them: tell them what they mean to you. You never know when you won't be able to do just that.
Forgive and forget anyone or anything you feel you've been hurt by. You may never get another chance to make up and have that person back in your life.
And if you feel too proud to do that, if you feel so bad that a knee-jerk reaction is to tell yourself that you can live with the hurt vs. allowing that person back into your life, just remember:
You can't 'love' pride. You can't 'hug' pride. You can't 'know' pride.




I'm limited -Just look at me -
I'm limited -And just look at you
You can do all I couldn't do, so now it's up to you
For both of us - now it's up to you...
I've heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led to those who help us most to grow
If we let them and we help them in return
I believe that's true,
I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...
Like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you I have been changed for good
It well may be that we will never meet again in this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird in a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you, because I knew you
I have been changed for good
And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for
But then, I guess we know there's blame to share
And none of it seems to matter anymore
Like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder halfway through the wood
Like a ship blown from its mooring by a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better
And because I knew you
Because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good...
