Dear Friends At Allnurses. Although none of us know how many days we have left here on earth, I still want you all to know This message comes from my heart to all of you. I feel that it's important to tell those we love how we feel so they will always know we have done our best to show them how much we love them. That love extends to all of you.

If tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not here to see,

if the sun should rise to find your eyes are filled with tears for me;

I hope you will not cry the way you might that day,

thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me and you know that I love you,

and each time that you'd think of me, please know I'd miss you too;

If tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand,

that an angel came and called my name, and took me by the hand.

The angel said my place was ready, in heaven far above,

and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye

for all my life, I'd always thought, that I would never die.

I have so much to live for, so much left yet to do,

it seems almost impossible, that I'd be leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad,

the thought of all the love we shared, and all the fun we had.

But then I walked through heaven's gates, and felt so much at home.

When God looked down and smiled at me, from His great golden throne,

He said, "This is eternity, and all I've promised you,

today your life on earth is past, but here life starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,

and since each day's the same way there's no longing for the past.

You have been so faithful, so trusting and so true.

though there were times you did some things you knew you shouldn't do.

But you have been forgiven and now at last you're free.

So won't you come and take my hand and live in peace with me?"

So if tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,

for every time you think of me, I'll be there in your heart.

Have A Wonderful Day

Thought I'd Start Your Day With Me, God Bless You

Always know that you have touched my heart in a very big way, and I love you dearly.

My Mom went from I don't feel well to dead in 28 hours. If I had known it would happen, I would have made sure she had written down her recipes.

I don't know what is going on in your head, but if there is anything you want to talk about, I know you will find me.

There isn't very much at all going on in my head Barb. It's just that this message popped into mine this morning to let all of you know how I feel about you.

Things like this have often happened with me in timely order. Some personal messages or cards to friends have been sent at the time when the recipient needed what I sent.

It has happened with me to Cheerfuldoer when she was going through some rough days, another personal friend when she needed my phone call, etc.

For example, as I was doing my Bible study yesterday morning, the song, "It is No Secret What God Can Do" popped in my head, and remained there the entire day until I posted it on our CWU website where I'm an assistant manager. Then after I posted it, I couldn't remember the name.

I do believe however, that I'm being prompted by the Holy Spirit to do these things, because these all began after I had my out of body experience in 2001 when I suffered a major PE.

It could just be you have found some peace. I have talked about what happens to me occasionally at a crime scene. Out of nowhere, I find something. My husband pokes fun at me and told me The Holy Spirit stuck out his foot and made me trip so I could not miss what I was searching for. That is as good a reason as any. I just "find" things.

It was a beautiful poem, and brought me some comfort. I still am mad at my mom that she never wrote down her recipies. Mine are written down. When my mom died I knew I was a good daughter and I had no regrets. No woulda shoulda coulda's, I told her I loved her every day.

The New Year is a great time to re assess what we want and what we need. Sheesh, you are one of these organization people, I bet the cans in your pantry are in alphbetical order.

Keep speaking your mind.

OK, you made me cry. And I copied it ... to put it in an envelope to be read by my children in the event of my death...whether that proverbial truck strikes me on my way out the door tomorrow or whether I'm 125 years old and finally being called home.

Thanks for posting.

What an inspiration you are to me and many others. You've always been here for me -- both at allnurses and at our CWU site. You give love so openly, so freely, so inspirationally. You have always touched my life, my spirit; my inner being. I have learned so much about love, discipline, and how to inhale the peace of our Father God from you over the past year and a half since CWU came to fruition. You are a true poet, true friend, true sister in Christ, and definitely a daughter our Father God must be proud and honored to call His own. :kiss

Thank you for that beautiful letter. You write exactly like I have come to know you....down to earth and at peace in your inner spirit. Whenever our time comes to be led away from this Life unto Life Eternal with our Father God, I hope I am in that number so you and I can hold hands, sing along side each other, and praise and worship together without ceasing, without ever feeling out of breath, without sickness, pain and suffering. I love you so much Fran. You are a true sister to me, and I thank God for every blessing I've received by being an intimate part of your life. :kiss

I don't worry about you one bit, Fran.

I know you are exactly where you need to be ... comfortable and confident in both your present and your future.

Your faith has served you well.. and blessed many who were fortunate enough to know you.

You'll be fine... whatever His plans for you. You are ready.

Good feeling, isn't it?
