An Early Obituary

Today,
i write my obituary
to some,
it is an end to a story
but it is my beginning
yes, am young
and alive.
nobody knows me better 
than i do.
Everything i want to be 
remembered for is 
everything i truly am
not what people want to 
hear when am no more
what i want to be 
remembered for
is neither fame nor 
fortune
but someone who had a 
passion for life, love and 
dreams.
Someone who saw 
beauty,a gift and a 
blessing in every  
moment.
One who took chances 
loved and lived life with 
no regrets.
Starting today,
that is who am going to 
be remembered for

John Freeman June 20, 2009 at 11:11 PM Miranda, you sound like myself about 55 years ago, before I learned who I am. Now that I know who I truly am, if I could live another 65 years I would surely do it knowing what I know now! Back then I though I knew who I was, but I wasn't even close. Have fun. Love too, to you. jm
