I am still connected.........for I know..........I am no better than her copy.......### I can relate myself to her now, when she is no more with me (physically)..

Thank you so much for this Archana. I am slowly realizing she is always with me as I see and hear her more each day in things I say and do :) You have a great way of expressing and this helped me today. Thanks.
