rainbows and poems.. no homo

i love rainbows. more than ever now because of this line of 'if i die young'

"lord make me a rainbow i'll shine down on my mother,

she'll know im safe with you when she stands under my colors"

every time i see rainbows now, i feel like its brynn letting me know she is happy and safe.

this past weekend, me and some peeps went to vegas, which originally brynn and i had planned 
on doing for my 21st birthday. on our way down we saw the most gorgeous double rainbow. the first
 rainbow was so bright throughout the whole arch, i have never seen one so bright before. i wish i 
could have gotten a picture of it! i know it was brynn letting me know she was with us on our trip.

also, when reading that girls blog about her grandpa, she posted the most beautiful

poem that really hit home for me. it was exactly the words i needed to hear.

enjoy :)

To my dearest family, some things Id like to say.
But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven.
Here I dwell with God above.
Here, theres no more tears of sadness;
Here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through.
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, I welcome you.
Its good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on.

I need you here so badly, you are part of my plan.
There is so much that we can do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night the days chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years.
Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.

But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and Id like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who is in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night....My day was not in vain.
And now I am contented... that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick them up, as on your way you go.

When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when its time for you to go...from that body to be free. 

Remember you're not going...you're coming here to me.
