?His Journey
?
?Don't think of him as gone away, his journey's just begun. Life on this earth is just one. Just think of him as resting from the sorrows and the tears, in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years. Think how he must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness can really pass away. Always think of him as living in the hearts of those he touched....for nothing loved is ever lost and he was loved so much.
