There is no night without a dawning
No winter without a spring
And beyond the dark horizon
Our hearts will once more sing…
For those who leave us for a while
Have only gone away
Out of a restless, care worn world
Into a brighter day.
RIP Friend♡ prayers to her family and friends

I’m glad you are no longer suffering, aunty. You were like my 2nd mom, aunty, and best friend all in one. We made so many memories together. Our sense of humor was on point. Often times we were the only one’s who got each other’s jokes as people around us looked at us like we were crazy and went the other way lol. The hurt of seeing you in pain took its toll on me I made the decision to honor you the way I remember you. The carefree, happy, always laughing person that you are. I love you aunty and I’m gonna miss you so much. We practically grew up together! Watch over me and keep me safe…
