Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure, you are loved beyond words, and missed beyond measure.
Life is but a Stopping Place
Life is but a stopping place,
a pause in what is to be,
a resting place along the road
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
different paths along the way,
we all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay.
Our destination is a place
far greater than we know,
for some, the journey is quicker,
for some, the journey is slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
we will claim a great reward,
and find an everlasting peace,
together with the Lord.
“Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.”
(Quran 2:156)
