« Five Wool Felt Embroidered Cameo Pins and One Pendant. | Main | My Friend today. »
The time has arrived for me to say good-bye to my beloved friend Debra. She is into hospice care at her home right now. I'm getting ready for a quick trip. I will be flying to see her for the last time on Friday and I will be back on Monday. My heart is broken in many pieces but my spirit is strong. I don't believe that the departure of the body is the end of human existence. Debra and I will be forever connected through our spirits. True love and friendship stay alive forever.

I'm so sorry about your friend Debra. I know how hard it is to say goodbye to someone we love so much. And how nice to see that you too believe that it does not end there, that's very important and helps us a lot going through those difficult moments in life. I'm sending all my love and peaceful thoughts for you both. A big warm hug from Brazil.

I already printed a copy for you hermana. I framed one for me for my studio.
That's a picture from 2002. It was at Debra's house, she had a little party, you were there with Shelby too.

I am so sorry for you to have to make this trip, my heart just breaks. It is times like this that I think of what my grandmother wrote to us in a letter to be read upon her passing out of this life.....that we should not cry because now she is a beautiful butterfly. The last part of her life was a cocoon and now she has emerged to be beautiful and free forever. That we should look at nature and think of her. My love and energy is sent to you and your friend and her family to bring you peace.
