Diane~
I remember so well your beautiful Christmas time wedding. You chose the most perfect of music some 49 years ago......
You and Jim did just as these lyrics that follow from West Side Story, said;
TONY
There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere
MARIA
There's a time for us
Some day a time for us
Time together
And time to spare
Time to learn
Time to care
Someday
TONY
Somewhere
We'll find a new way of living
MARIA
We'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere
TONY & MARIA
There's a place for us
A time and place for us
Hold my hand
And we're halfway there
Hold my hand
And I'll take you there
Somehow
Someday
Somewhere
Now, Jim is on to prepare for when you see him again....where again, there is a place for you to be together again, where there is an eternal place for the two of you. It is not over, true love never is. Just hold on to those memories, and your half way there, hold on to the love and he'll take you there, until you see him in heaven.
And, as another song so perfectly chosen for your wedding, you and Jim made love deepen and last. In a time and a world of broken families and broken hearts, yours deepened and withstood and were strengthened by the storms and the celebrations over time.....
Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze
Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears
All of my sympathies...I wish I could be there to offer them to you in person. Sending you HUGS and LOVE, Karen Bugaj
