Remember When It Rained...

Everyone,

It is the day after the first year anniversary of Cindy Kennedy's death. But, even so, several people have remembered -- after another year of hardships, triumphs, and the everyday worries of life, you have all still remembered. You have all still given tribute to Mrs. Kennedy, whether it be through wearing her bracelet, commenting this xanga, or even just keeping her in your thoughts. You have made Mrs. Kennedy's death not tragic, but inspiring -- it is all of those who remember her and will act on what she thought and believed to be right that are making a true difference. You are taking what seemed to be a rain cloud and found the silver lining; and though this is hard, though this is complex and nearly impossible to comprehend, just trying is succeeding. By just remembering you are paying tribute to her memory -- you are carrying out what she wanted, which was overall, happiness. By remembering Cindy Kennedy you are passing on a dream. Though turning around and trying to ignore or deny her existance would have been easier, you have not done it. You are carrying on her dream, you are acknowledging she was a real, living, breathing person, and not a stastistic. You, in the end, are making the world a little happier. That's all that she could have ever asked for.

Remember When it Rained...

Oh, and a few people have asked in there comments who made this -- its Rob (Basil for those who don't know me by name). My xanga is here.

Thank you for remembering Ms. Kennedy.

There's now a blogring someone else made, which can be found here.

Yesterday was Ms. Kennedy's funeral and visitation. It was open casket. She wore a neon-blue wig, and it was funny because I bet she had planned it that way. But because of that very same reason, it was sad. It was sad that she had to plan it, that she made preparations for this kind of a thing. So now that I think about it, I really take my life for granted. I don't have to worry about what will happen when I die. I don't have to go to sleep at night, wondering if the next day will be my last. I believe that what happened t Ms. Kennedy was a bad thing, but now I'm goin got do what she would have done. She would have looked at this all positively. And thats what I' going to do. I will see Ms. Kennedy's death not as a devastating event that will ruin my whole life. I'll see it as a sign to live life a little happier and really to start appreciating what I have.

A wonderful teacher, a loving mother and all around great person has died today. She died around 6 this morning. We all will miss her very much, but for her sake we should not be sad. She would want us to be happy for her, for she has now passed on to a better place. She no longer feels the pain that cancer put upon her for the last few years.  She is now happy, in heaven, smiling down at all of us. Our hearts must also go out to Chelsey in her time of sadness. Feel free to leave any comments about what a great person she was.

May she always be with us in our thoughts, fellings, and hearts.
