The season that brings with it the end of the summer and the preparation for winter
I sit here with feelings of sadness
Life is such an uphill struggle for all living things these days
Not just a simple three meal 8hours sleep exercise
But a life filled with stress, worry, hate and illness
We are born into this life with one goal
To live
And that is something that we all fight for each and every day. Some have harder fights, some have more support friends and family but alone we choose our destiny
Animals in the wild have no one
They simply are born and then do all they can instinctively to survive
My cats are just this. Alone but with fire in their bellies to be here
When this fight is over, we are like the autumn leaf on the highest branch
That wind takes us on a journey down and there we rest
We rest for eternity
But surrounding that tree is the memories they left behind
Flashback to the summer skies when the sun shone through the windows of this house brightening up the room and bringing with it a warmth
Pictures of this garden would show these trees full of colourful leaves that brought a smile
Flashback further to the person who went out and brought the seeds to plant the tree
Just because the leaves have fallen doesn’t mean we have forgotten the sweet smell of the flower which blossomed in the spring
For people it is a lot bigger
For with people the memories can be endless
And they are shared amongst family friends and people you meet
Right from your spouse to your post man
The smile you gave that person in the street, who might have been sad
Or the way you made your child feel at Xmas
These Memories never fade
Not if we remember them
Talk about them
Bring them with us
For people and lives can live on for eternity
Keep them treasured in your heart forever
RIP RE
