Rani's True light. 25/8/04 - 1/9/06 Sleeping Peacefully

.................................. .................................................................................................... I was watching tv this morning, tributes for Steve, when someone said a quote, which has stuck in my mind all morning... *His legacy was done, so it was time for him to leave* how true is this...through him, the world now preserves it's conservation, he has (sort of) made the world a better place. His catch cry is heard world wide CRIKEY..tell someone your from Queensland..they ask you..DO you know Steve Irwin...and then they are shocked when you say ..Actually...yes...I live not 15 minutes away from him!!! It's not just me feeling like this, it's every person on the SUnshine Coast, every person in Queensland, every person in Australia, every person in the World!! What's my legacy I thought, do I have one?? Does any of us have one? Is it true that only the good die young?? (It seems to be the case lately.) Does that mean if you die at 80 you were bad? Today is also Rani's funeral, I cant comprehend, how Mel and John feel today, in thinking of legacies, i believe Rani's was to make us all aware of how important love is. To also make us aware of organ donation and Biliary Arteris. We've all become donors, no amount of advertising would have made us, so God sent her, to tell us. She was an angel, sent down to make a difference....which she did, in more way's than one. How many of us, now tell our children we love them, more than we ever did before?? How many of us no longer take small things for granted any more?? the smell of grass, sun/rain on your face? All of these things, she never experienced because she was making a difference. In one year, she made a difference to MY life, I never knew her personally, but through her, I hope I can become a better person. *Her legacy is done, it is time for her to leave* how true are these words....... i had promised myself i would not fill my blog with anything depressing, today i felt i needed to get this all out of my head. I will more than likely delete it in a few days, but for now, in memory of these 2 remarkable people I shall leave it here. Just so you to can see, what a difference they both made to the world.
