Soon

I dream, of the place where I will one day see your face again.
Where all our worries and pain disappear and all we feel is immeasurable bliss.

I dream, that you will wrap your arms around me and show me around the magnificent utopia you have been residing in and it will feel better than home.

I know this dream will someday be a reality, and though it cannot come fast enough, I will wait with endless anticipation to meet you in our dreamland.

The Wedding Song - There is Love

This was a favorite of John and me. We always stopped and listened to it whenever we heard it. I remember once when we were coming home and it was playing on the car radio. We just sat in the car in the driveway and listened to it until the end.
We had it sung at our Wedding.

I love that look on John's face. I always felt so loved. I still do. I love you, Baby.

My flowers from John

Our loved ones in spirit send us messages all the time. But we have to be open and listen.
John knew I loved it when he gave me flowers. When we first started courting he would bring me a single red rose every Friday - on our weekly anniversary.
Flowers from John were special. They always made me smile and were a tangible symbol of his love.
I was in Costco today and as I passed the fresh flowers I was drawn to the roses. I was feeling in my heart that John wanted me to have flowers for Valentine's Day, something he would do if he were here physically. So I picked out some beautiful peach-colored ones, knowing he was smiling at my choice.
Thank you, Sweetheart. I love them. And you.

Tomorrow Never Came

John in front of our first house 1984
For years this song always made me cry. It made me realize how much John and I loved each other and how heartbreaking it would be to be without each other.  But even those thoughts and those tears never prepared me for what it really feels like to be without him in this world now.  But I can soothe myself somewhat knowing that we always made sure the other knew how much he/she was loved. I never doubted John's love for a minute and I hope with all my heart he knew how much I loved him [and still love him] and how much he meant to me. How much he still means to me.

The Music always played for us

Johnny Mathis singing "How Do You Keep the Music Playing" in concert in 1988.
This is one of our favorites by Johnny Mathis. John and I saw him live several times and enjoyed him every time. This song touched us especially. True love never gets old. It gets better with time.
