A friend of mine, 51 years old, passed away this week. I repost this in Steve Glover's memory. Rest well, my friend. :(
"LOOK TO THE SKY" (C) Copy written, 2004/Revised, 2004 by Karla Dorman. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Do not mourn my passing, for I am not here. There is no need for sadness, no need for tears. When you want to remember, look to the sky. That is where you will find me, I did not die. ~~~ I am the wind as it brushes your hair. I am the spring morning, gentle and fair. I am the night dance of the Northern Lights. I am the sunrise, so golden and bright. ~~~ I am the rain gently kissing your face. I am the stars you see in outer space. I am the lightning announcing the storm. I am clouds taking unusual forms. ~~~ I am the mountain peaks touching the sky. I am the eagle you see soaring high. I am a shooting star (did you see me?). I am whatever you want me to be. ~~~ Do not mourn my passing, for I am not here. There is no need for sadness, no need for tears. When you want to remember, look to the sky. That is where you will find me, I did not die. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She never felt safe at home as a young girl, and didn't understand why when she finally escaped she wasn't safe in the big wide world either ...effectively jumping out of the frying pan into the fire!
