~ (~) ~ (Four Parts-Part #3) Dedicated In Love To My Little Sister ~ Tina Marie Haynes ~ (~) ~

My Sister when I was about 8 1/2, I am 38 now, passed away but before she did, she told everyone this... "I am going to be Ok, and will be with God... I will get a new pair of lungs and some wings to fly with Him in Heaven, and I will be His little princess..." On the day she passed, in the midst of the dust floating in the room. Rays of light shown through that morning right on her on her bed, covering her, and I truly believe that God came and picked her up personally Himself that day, and carried her off to Heaven with Him... Precious on her last litter had a kitten that looked, and I mean looked dead on herself... So we named her Princes... She was the most crazy cat I have ever known... and had an air about her that said to all... "Hey!" Look at me!" "I am a Princess" ... She was so very proud of herself for this, but never neglected her Mother's way, and was never disloyal to the family... She always loved to play with us and her Mother (Chasing her around the house, daring her, and reminding her to play), because I believe this... She was just crazy about life... "Just crazy about it, and as grateful as her mother, and my SIster," because though my Sister, though she was very spirited about her condition. She still desired to live her life just like another child her age would, and would carry this burden from time to time, as it would come to the surface, and make her blue, the fact that in reality, she could not... So princes would just fly around the house like a whirlwind, and would always come to land in someone's lap, or arms or beside you in bed purring or at the foot of someone's bed at the end of the day, and would awaken as lively and in a dead run, to do it all again the next day... We loved her dearly too... because of her adoring for her life itself... and the energy that she put into enjoying it... Because she too, had lost her little brother, a few hours after he was born... She too reminds me of my Sister Tina, in this way... That life is sometimes a struggle, but is always evolving and always comes back to itself in time, and is always turning full circle... and is forever advancing towards all in gratitude... and exists and moves abundantly, within itself and lives for this one passion... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3C7DECI0jU&feature=related
