THE GOOD BYE....OR SEE YOU LATER?

We came back from the funeral a couple of hours ago. It is so sad to say the last good bye to the body of a person...seing a casquet there, where the corpse of a person whom you loved dearly is there sleeping...the eternal sleep.

It is the saddest thing you can imagine, because we humans tend to love the material things, we do tend to be selfish and want our love ones here with us.

I surely will miss this guy here at the office, his big smile and voice are going to be present on my mind for a long time.

Certainly death is part of our lives. But we do avoid the subject so many times. I do believe there is a life after death and if you believe in heaven...well, I know Byron is there.

I have so many things I want to say now...well that I wanted to say to him. I do remember what I told him the most...he was studying to become a doctor...and I said to him more than once "You have all my respect" I wanted to let him now with those five words how amazing a person like him was going to be in the future, he was going to become a professional for sure. God had other plans for him.

I will miss him.
