I met this beautiful girl this summer and I thought I would share this series of shots that touches my heart to the core! About 1 month prior to these pictures she lost her older brother suddenly. I loved this series of her dancing in the rain feeling the raindrops on her skin with the most beautiful smile on her face. Her brother's spirit is in her and very alive and I pray that her and her family find the strength the push on. You are very strong Maggie. Keep taking one day at a time, one moment at a time, and continue to keep your brother's spirit alive. I love finding the perfect poem.

With a burdened heart and a troubled mind, I kneel by the side of his grave And I cry for my brother, I love so much, For no longer can I be brave.
I know he'd hate to see me cry. But, everything's gone wrong And I need to tell him I love him. I haven't told him in so long.
He used to dry my tears away And put a smile in their place. Oh God, I'd be so happy If I could only see his face.
You see, I miss him terribly. We were close, him and I. He taught me so many things, Lord. He took the time to answer why.
Why did he have to leave me? I feel so all alone. I long to hear his voice again, To call him on the phone.
Oh Lord, please give me strength To bear this awful pain. Tell him that I love him, Lord. Slow these tears that fall like rain.
Assure me that we'll meet again, Upon your Golden Shore, And once more he'll be my brother In Heaven, forever more.

Okay, that lands right on my heart. Beautiful presentation, beautiful poem,..... just beautiful!
wow. i totally understand her being filled with her brother, i felt that way after my mom died. i was sad but at the same time i felt filled with her spirit, like she was comforting me in some sort of way and making me feel peaceful. i was sad but i could smile and having my family around it was like we were all knitted toether. i still cried in the shower but i wasnt as devestated as you would think because i could feel her. weird, i know. sometimes i feel worse now thinking about how much i miss her. i cant believe its been 7 years...
ok, now i'm crying, thanks kathy!! :)
