An inspired musician, composer and artist.
So loving, loyal, compassionate, sensitive, strong, brave and wise.
A person in possession of such extraordinary dignity and grace.
Now you are free from suffering and pain.
In a world that can often seem dull and bland, you brought colour, vibrancy and a touch of magic.
Despite everything you always lived, rather than existed, and you lived until your final breath ran out. How you appreciated your life, and the lives of others.
You were so connected to this world and took such pleasure in simple things, especially the sound of the rain, a glimpse of the stars and the song of birds.
In the event of your death, you were very clear. There was to be no fuss, at all.
So I’ve kept it very simple.
How I shall miss you.
How could this happen? You were so young.
What will I do without you?
Be at peace, beloved sister of mine.
I salute you.
I’ll be taking a little break from blogging, while I get my act together. Until then, take good care of yourselves.
Dear Dina,
I would like to express my sincerest condolences on the passing of your loving sister. She surely was a great person and your tribute was indeed very touching.
Wish you peace and comfort
