David: A Tribute.
« on: May 31, 2006, 11:41:20 pm »
I'm sorry everyone, but you all are the most accepting and I feel better opening up to you all. This might help me out a bit. :'(

R.I.P DAVID I MISS YOU


David playing with my cousins this past Spring.


David not really wanting his picture taken at all.


David sleeping in the car last December.



Sadly enough these are the only pictures I have on here.

I never got to see him much and I need to put a face to the name of the person I miss so dearly.


 Thank you for letting me mourn.-Jenn (Lotus)

Thank you for sharing David with the world. Your loss is our loss as well.

Jen,

I know it has been difficult to do this but  I am sure it will help you mourn.
What a lovely person he looked.

Never forget that his  energy never dies. It will forever stay, as long as you live on earth.

Jen...  A Very Touching Tribute!
Humbly I offer this poem...it helps me
when I miss my David..

I Did Not Die

Do not stand at my grave and forever weep.
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and forever cry.
I am not there. I did not die.

Dear Jenn,

Wow, what a full and joyful spirit.  His eyes have the clarity of an angel, and I am sure that his spirit is still very much with you.

In Love.

(from one who personally hates this virus with his very soul!)
The Bible contains 6 admonishments to homosexuals,
and 362 to heterosexuals.
This doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals,
It's just that they need more supervision.
