That though the radiance which was once so bright be now forever taken from my sight. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, glory in the flower. We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind.
You know I would like this said at my leaving this world, morbid as that sounds I just love these words and they don't seem to want to leave me this week. It is also only a part of a very long poem with stanzas. I find these words so beautiful and strong, don't you agree.

Finding strength in what remains behind. I love that. So often we find bitterness as a result of being left, rejected, torn apart. Finding strength is good. Thank you.
I think it's perfect for a service. Things do remain behind. That is sometimes forgotten during those early days of mourning. A comforting thought, for me, for sure.
(LOVE that movie)
Love, love, love that movie. I may have to netflix it now. Great quote.
