When this happens….remember this.

When you lose the words to explain just how good life was to you,

When you lose the time to live your life to the fullest,

When you lose the grace with which you danced through the fields of life,

You’re not alone.

When you’re unable to pass on knowledge like you used to,

When you’re unable to read words flowing like water off their pages,

When you’re unable to instill your own order in a life that once was yours,

You’re not alone.

When you don’t own your life anymore,

When control has slipped from your grasp,

When you’ve lost the very thing that used to be yours; freewill

You’re not alone

When you’re old, weary and gray,

When the days are bleaker and there’s less to do,

When passing time is eternal,

You are not alone.

When you feel alone, remember you’re not

You are still the same 22 year old in love

When you feel scared, remember not to be

You are still the teacher who impacted generations

When you feel like giving up, remember not to

You are still the woman who traveled the world.

You told us not to worry about anything, do so as well.

Thank you for sharing your life with us. Your wisdom is always in our hearts.
