I ask that you not grieve for the loss, but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each other's lives.
My life was fuller because you were there
not as a master/owner, but as my friend.
Today I am as I was in my youth.
The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and the sun shines gently down upon all God's creatures.
I can run, jump, play and do all the things that I did in my youth.
There is no sickness, no aching joints, no regrets and no aging.
We await the arrival of our lifelong companions
and know that togetherness is forever.
Companions such as you are so rare and unique.
Don't hold the love that you have within yourself:
give it to another like me and then I will live forever
