For my Loved One's, my family and Friends "To those I Love" If I should ever leave you
whom I love
To go along the silent way
grieve not,
Nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk
Of me as if I were
beside you there.
(I'd come - I'd come,
could I but find a way!
But would not tears and grief
be barriers?)
And when you hear a song
or see a bird
I loved, please do not let
the thought of me
Be sad.....For I am
Loving you just as
I always have....
You were so good to me!
There are so many things
I wanted still to do
- so many things
to say to you.....
Remember that I
did not fear....It was
Just leaving you
that was so hard to face....
.........................
But this I know:
I loved you so - 'twas heaven
there with you!

"If Tomorrow Never Comes"
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch them sleeping
Their lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would they ever doubt the way I feel
About them in my heart
If tomorrow never comes
Will they know how much I love them
Did I try in every way to show them every day
That they're my only one's
And if my time on earth were through
And they must face this world without me
Is the love I gave them in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much they mean to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell them how I feel
If tomorrow never comes
Will they know how much I love them
Did I try in every way to show them every day
That they're my only one's
And if my time on earth were through
And they must face this world without me
Is the love I gave them in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
So I'm telling you that I love You
This is what I'm thinking of
If tomorrow never comes xxxxx

Hi Gem I have read these two poems a few times now .I was reading vaydas post about tommorrow .Last night I did a reading for a woman.Her father came through first and her mother second .Her mother pushed dad out of the way and wanted to tell her daughter (the woman I was reading for) that her energy and Love was as equally strong as her dads .The womans parents died within 4 days of each other .She was trying to be in 2 places at once .She also had to give permission to turn off the life support machine for her mother.The woman was not with her mother when she died as her father had just died only days earlier difficult time for her.The womans guilt and own fears blocked her from even expecting to hear from mum.She thought only dad would come through.Mother came through to tell her daughter that it is different in the spirit world spirit is not bound by human fears and emotions blame and guilt etc. They are not influenced by earthly things.They know only unconditional Love and they understand intention the reasons why we do things the way we do because we are only human .The mother in spirit said look I am here standing right along side Dad stop pushing me to the back stop ignoreing me.When I hear or read people saying tommorrow may never come.Make sure you tell someone you love them as they may not be here to hear your words tommorrow .I just want to say they will hear you tommorrow even if they have died.Thier spirit lives on .It is as if they are saying there is no spirit world ,It is final because they have left thier earthly bodies .It is not final it is not too late Spirit can still hear us and they are with us watching and shareing all we do.We create blocks between us and spirit because of somthing we did or did not do when they were alive there is a tommorrow and will be lots of tommorrows, tommorrow does come . I am going to copy and paste this poem I hope you do not mind .When I was doing the reading the woman said thats right I feel as though I did not give her enough love.I immediately remembered this poem. I would like to give this to her. I am not saying that we should not do the things today that we may regret not doing tommorrow. But if we did not get the chance to love someone when they were here on earth we should not think that the love ends there. We should not think it was our last chance.Spirit is asking us to open our hearts to them and not to be influenced by earthly stigmas and emotions .Rid ourselves of the chains we put on our hearts unblock and release the love to spirit allowing spirit to send the love back to us. Is the love I gave them in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes Her words immediately reminded me of this part of the poem that I had read here .I do love the poem but dislike at the same time the idea that today is the last chance It is never too late to tell someone you love them.Spirit can hear us. L&L Iris xx

Hi Iris, I 100% agree with you that tomorrow does come for spirit and that they know our every thought and all our love forever. I like the words of this poem though for the simple reason that we are reminded to tell those we love, in this physical life how we feel about them today. Even though we know our loved one's live on passed this physical life, it can still be hard when we're dealing with grief and sadness, and a normal human emotion to feel guilt at maybe not saying enough face to face. I do agree it doesn't matter in the bigger picture as our loved one's never lose sight of us, and they will know our love for them when they are on the other side. Blessings iris Love Gem x |

TO REMEMBER ME.
The day will come when my body will lie upon a white sheet neatly tucked under four corners of a mattress located in a hospital busily occupied with the living and the dying. At a certain moment a doctor will determine that my brain has ceased to function and that, for all intents and purposes, my life has stopped.
When that happens, do not attempt to instil artificial life into my body by the use of a machine, and don't call this my deathbed. Let it be called 'The Bed of Life and let my body be taken from it to help others lead fuller lives.
Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face or love in the eyes of a woman. Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless days pain. Give my blood to a teenager who was pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he may live to see his grandchildren play. Give my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week. Take my bones, every muscle, every fibre and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk. Explore every corner of my brain. take my cells if necessary and let them grow so that some day, a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a cricket bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window.
Burn what is left of me and scatter the ashes to the winds to help the flowers grow.
If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses and all predjustice against my fellow man.
Give my sins to the devil, give my soul to God. If by chance, you wish to remember me, do it with a kind deed or a word so someone who needs you. If you do all I have asked I will live forever.
Gem x

Wow Gem, 'To Remember Me' has certainly touched me,perhaps because its the way I feel myself.When I die,i'd love to give every piece of me that is useful,to someone else,to help them perhaps lead a better life,knowing that when i go,my soul has already left,and the physical body is merely a shell. thankyou for posting this mel xx |
