Claudia,

At some point in our lives, 
we all realize that we won't live forever. 
Some of us, however, 
won't come to terms with our life the way you have 
as you wrote these touching words.
You have shown us how to fight 
for each precious moment of life 
but at the same time, gracefully plan for a time 
when you will leave the people in your life 
who care so much about you.

Reflecting on the words you wrote, 
I want to add that it isn't the final days of a person's life 
that matter the most. It is the days that led up to that point.

What matters are the days we spend as children, 
the dreams we dare to dream along the way, 
the bonds that we make with other people 
and the memories we leave behind.

We grow and change as we fight 
both physical and emotional battles 
and we can either hide our scars or wear them 
for all the world to see and learn from. 
You have chosen to display your battles proudly 
and show us how we can find the strength 
to do that in our own lives. 

You have taught us how to take every existing moment 
and fill it with love and kindness. 

Our dear Claudia, as long as any of us are among the living, 
you, your dreams and your spirit will be alive too!
We love you!


Dianna
