My Heart Remembers Scotty
As difficult as the memories of today can be, I always end up smiling in Scotty's memory - his bubbly laugh, constant high fives and ability to see the good in everything around him.
There will be a tomorrow that exists without me. And I know that. When that day arrives, I want this world to have seen greater beauty because I existed. I want my life to have meant something. I want this world to be brighter. I want this world to be happier. I want people to have smiled more and to have laughed more because I've spent time here. I want others to have seen and felt the uniqueness of my spirit. And if I accomplish that, when my soul does move on and my gift stays here and makes just one ripple, I will look down and I will smile. I will smile wide.

Thinking of you Scottie!
