What a beautiful and amazing person you were
in this life! Thank you for coming into my life
for the brief period that you did. I remember
the first time I met you at the weekly drum
circles in Cocoa Village. You came with your friend,
whose name escapes me, and were totally game
for drumming even though it wasn't really
your thing at all. I remember when
we had talked about getting a place together
in the Village and I showed you and the gang
the house I had found. I remember
your red hair and your big smile.
I remember all the times you came to
the Herb Corner and I channeled Reiki
for you and you told me I was a monk
in a previous life and I was meant to be
a healer. I remember your laugh and your bright eyes.
I'm sorry I wasn't there for you when
the cancer progressed despite all our efforts to
stop it. I'm sorry I was unable to visit you when
the end of this life was near. I'm sorry
I didn't call more often. I know you
have no regrets and I know you hold no
ill will for me, but I wanted you to know
that I valued our friendship and that I'll look
for you in future lifetimes. I know
our paths will cross again.
Safe journey,
Your friend,
Michael
