My Life

Those who know me, know that I am a quiet person, not prone to long dialogue.

However, I would like to leave a visual legacy by which to be remembered.

Remember that I loved, and was loved

Remember that I tried my best to do good and bring happiness to those I loved

And those I didn’t

Remember that I made a lot of mistakes in my life, and learned from every one of them

Remember that life is not about the things you have collected, but the friends you’ve gathered

Create, Live, LoveCreate what is in you

heart. Express yourself without inhibition. And never be afraid to tell others what you think.

Live as if each day was your last and you had no cares in the world

Love yourself, love your family, love your friends, and love your enemies

Crying for my life lost will do nothing but make you sadder.

But I want a lot of crying at my funeral.

A lot!

But mostly I want you to know that I had a good life and am grateful and happy to have

had the opportunity to live it.

And I may now be ugly on the outside; but on the inside, I’m still fabulous!

A bientôt!
