I like our discussions in Galvan,
and the poems that we discuss about ..
It is like, exactly what I am going through ..

" When I'm gone, just carry on;
don't mourn, rejoice every time
you hear the sound of my voice .
" Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling,
and I didn't feel a thing, so baby don't feel no pain;
just smile back . "

" I am not afraid to keep on living .
I am not afraid to walk this world alone . "

Woo-hoo . Happy Veteran's Day .
