Life

God gives life
But it is also taken away
I have lost some that I loved
The pain, always there
But in time
Other emotions form
You remember the good moments
A silly joke you might have shared
Difficult moments that pulled you together as a united front
A  simple "thank you"
The powerful words... "I love you"

Life is meant to be lived....fully
Cherish it
When God does call us 
The emotional hurt will be there
So in dealing with this
Remember all the positive 

It's never easy to let go
In the end 
We are headed to a wonderful place
Home with our heavenly father
