In spite of her shadows I know at some point of all of our lives she was someone special to each of us. She was my favorite person from 6 yrs old until early 20s. She will always have a place in my heart

From a long way off. I love that story. I love how the father doesn't care what other people think. I love how, despite the ware and tare of harsh living, he recognizes his own child - even a long way off.

Yes! Harsh loving doesn’t obscure us from our Father! 🙌🏽

I loved her more than anyone will ever know. When things were good between us they were REAL GOOD! She was the only person I wanted around me when I was sick, depressed, sad , lonely among so many other human emotions we all experience in life. When I was with her I laughed harder, played more and would turn down all other invitations from people just to be with her.

From what I’ve recently learned from my own personal journey with God, He is a writer. He writes all our stories personally from beginning to end. He also writes down things we do that hurt the the ones we claim to love. (no matter how good a person is they will inevitably hurt someone they love)

When Monica was so sick in the hospital fighting for her life I asked God to ...PLEASE DO NOT WRITE DOWN THE THINGS SHE DID TO Hurt THE ONES SHE LOVED!!!

He immediately assured me they had been ERASED whatever I FELT she did to me!

I look forward to meeting her again in heaven where all people and all things are NEW.

That is where I will see MY BEST FRIEND FOREVER!!
