Life

By Caitlin Belle Holder

Life here is not the same as life in Heaven.
Life on Earth is complicated,
Life in Heaven is beautiful.

Life that we live here has challenges,
but life in Heaven does not,
for life in Heaven there is no time
like there is on Earth.

So it may seem like ten or twenty years on Earth,
but seconds in Heaven.

When God has our room ready,
whether it's a "Titans" room or flowers,
God will take us when the room is ready.

For now you know the poem of life!


Once in every life, someone comes along...

God sent Caity to me when she was eight years old. Her kindred spirit was so refreshing and so anew... and her smile was as bright as the morning sun... and still continues to shine for all the world to see.

Anyone who knows our sunshine leaves with a ray of light surrounding them. so you ask yourself... why would you stop the sun from shining?... you wouldn't. I say... let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!

As the sun sets, you can almost drown in her innocence. Just by being around Caity makes you feel that way. Your day becomes brighter and your heart gets a big as the sky.

As I watch Caity with her mom and dad, a feeling of such warmth comes over my heart that is unimaginable. They have this never-ending love and their strength reaches beyond the universe and back.

Caity has taught me many things about life, but the one thing that I will treasure the most is how to take each new day and run with it, and to embrace every minute of every day... and never, yes never, forget to tell someone that you love them...

So God... I want to thank you with every ounce of my being, for sending us this precious, precious Gift... and angel from heaven...
