To My Family

It may appear that I am gone now, but in fact, I am still here. I am in your smiles, and I am in your tears. I will be there in the memories each of you make because I am a part of you. Because of each of you I get to live on. My life has been worth living because I got to see you all be born. Go forward now and hold me in your heart. Remember that I love you and we will never be apart. Enjoy every day you have left because as you see it goes by so quickly.
