Dear Logan (by my sister Karah)

Great post by my little sister down in New Zealand about our Cousin Logan. Love you Sis.

(I recently had one of my little Cousins die. It was very unexpected, and I could not be with my family for the ceremonies. I still want them to know how much I care. Here is a little something I wrote with some pictures to remember him… read until the very end.)

Dear Cuz,

            You know those things that you never really like to tell anyone? Those things you like to keep secret? Well one of those things for me was my admiration and love for my family. I have loved them no matter what the situation. I have always thought of the heart as a special object, for everyone.

Cuz…

If I could tell you one thing,
I would tell you that you are loved more than you know.

If we could talk once more,
I would remind you how proud I am of everything you’ve done.
How proud I am of how hard you work,
of how committed and steadfast you are,
of how great it is to have you around,
and how you’re going to grow up to be so much cooler than your big cousin.

If I could see you once more,
I wouldn’t miss your last baseball game.

If we could hang out one more day at the lake,
I would still be in awe of your perfect gainers.

If you could teach me one more thing,
it would be your serene calm under pressure.

If I could hear you now,
your infectious laugh would fill the room.

If I could show you one thing,
it would be a world incomplete without you.

—Rest in Peace Cuz—

Let The Avalanche of Action Flow Through You
	


	
	
	

		
Instead of filling your life with other people’s stories, gossip, news and social media; fill life with your own stories of action. I encourage you to find and bless the world with your unique value of creation… your creativity, your perspective and your passion shared with the world for the benefit of all, yourself included. Listen in the stead of talking. Walk the talk to let your voice be heard through others. The sound of one rock rolling pales in comparison to the avalanche of action. Let your value flow through you and let nothing stand in its way.
