Condolence: I've heard it said,
People come into our lives for a reason, bringing something we must learn.
And, we're led to those who'll help us most to grow, if we let them.
And, we help them in return.
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true.
But, I know I'm who I am today, because I knew you.
Like a comet pulled from orbit, as it passes the sun.
Like a stream 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, we may never meet again in this lifetime.
So, let me say before we part.
So much of me, is made of what I've learned from you.
You'll be with me, like a handprint on my Heart.
And, now no matter how our story ends,
I know you'll have rewritten mine, by being my friend.
Like a ship pulled from it's mooring by the winds of the sea.
Like a seed dropped by a skybird in a distant wood.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better....
I do believe I have been CHANGED for the better....
But, because I knew you....
BECAUSE I knew you.....
I HAVE been changed....
For GOOD!
