It’s always yesterday.
Don’t ask me how long it’s been; it’s ALWAYS yesterday. (The Nerve)
“You can shed tears that she is gone,
or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all she’s left.
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her,
or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her only that she is gone,
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what she’d want:
smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”
David Harkins quotes (British Poet and Painter b.1958)
~~~~~ * ~~~~~
Another anniversary of always yesterday.
I miss you.
Je t’aime.
this is my favorite line: “You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.”

Loved this: “Or you can do what she’d want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.” People forget that those who truly love us would not want us in perpetual mourning. Moving forward does not mean you are rejecting what was, rather it is respect and tribute to go on and live well, carrying what you cherished in your heart and in your actions. Nice piece. 🙂

RYN: I changed settings in November or December. Got tired of the drama from Bottlecap’s minions. I figured those who want on will ask and those who just want to stir stuff up can go bother someone else.
