There are many of us who have lost love ones this year. This will be my first Christmas without my mom, and my girlfriend. I spent some time today going through some of the cards and letters my mom left for me and I ran across the following poem. I do not know who wrote it, but was blessed to find it today. I hope sharing it will help some of you who have lost loved ones. I especially want to dedicate this to all those of you who were friends with my mom.
"Merry Christmas From Heaven"
I'll still hear the songs ...... I'll still see the lights,
I'll still feel your love....... on cold windy nights.
I'll still share your hopes.....and all of your cares,

Keep trying each moment....to stay in His grace,
I came here before you......to help set your place.
You don't have to be......perfect all the time,

I'm still close beside you.....in a new special way.
I love you all dearly .....now don't shed a tear,
