So I sit ,here thinking ,yes even I think. Some don't believe I do. This weekend I have to say goodbye to a special person in my life. I will write something hope it is right . Two weeks ago I did this same thing only for a wedding . A joyous occasion, now I am on the opposite side of the spectrum. Writing about something sad. Or am I . I am writing about a persons life and the impact they had on me . And that impact was good. So is it sad is it hard .Sure but the truth is it was grand ,they provided many smiles. When I wrote about the wedding ,I had tears and I will writing about this. But the tears were from joy and happiness. I t will be the same writing this .The memories will provide happiness. I will cry.

But it will be because the memories are precious. Sure there will be moments of sadness knowing these memories are what is left. But then again I had the same feeling writing about the wedding ,because the little boy I knew had grown up and the memories of the child were now just memories. Yet this is life ,and life is good .It continues to change. We know the drill. New becomes old, old becomes memories, and memories become precious . Precious is life. So I will write ,I will cry, I will feel a little sad. But mostly I will remember the time spent together was precious .Just as this life is .Every smile held near the heart, every moment of laughter held tightly in my memory, the time spent together weaved deep into my soul. All precious like this life we share. I wont say good bye I will say how precious they were to me . Life will go on a little emptier ,but no less precious .My tears will be of joy from happiness and how precious this life is .
