Members catcat Posted December 4, 2021 Members Report Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) It is a poem that stings a lot, but it is beautiful at the same time. “Remember Me” To the living, I am gone. To the sorrowful, I will never return. To the angry, I was cheated. But to the happy, I am at peace. And to the faithful, I have never left. I cannot speak, but I can listen. I cannot be seen, but I can be heard. So as you stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful sea - Remember me. As you look in awe at a mighty forest and its grand majesty - Remember me. As you look upon a flower and admire its simplicity- Remember me. Remember me in your heart: Your thoughts, and your memories, of the times we loved, The times we cried, The times we fought, The times we laughed. For if you always think of me, I will never be gone. -Margaret Mead I was given a little slip of paper with this poem. So I made a couple little "poster" pieces of it. The background photo was a pic I had taken during a sunset. Edit - Added the plain text since the images are small. Edited December 4, 2021 by catcat poor image compression, hard to read, added text. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators KayC Posted December 5, 2021 Moderators Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 Yes, I love the Bible's description of it: "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen." This is how we live... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
