For Clare

My darling Clare,
I am sitting crying my eyes out, thinking how sad you must be about your friend Beth dying.
At the same time Im thinking back on my friends that have died, and how each of them made up a special part in my life. The joy of frienship and the sadness of death make up a tapestry, which becomes our life's journey- This journey is not always easy travelling, In fact often it's bloody hard, and I know there's a big black hole in you at this moment.
I have a special tea light, that I light when I think of my lovely friend Donna who died. It has flowers on it, which Donna loved, and when I light it, her spirit fills the room. I stop to light it now, and also a beautiful pink one for your friend Beth.
Do lots of crying, as it helps. Talk to yourmum and dad about Beth and how you are feeling. Ask them to cuddle you tight, when you need it. We all know this horrible feeling, and its because you have such a huge heart Clare and you love so much, that it hurts so much.
Im sending you heaps and heaps of all my love to help you in your sadness.
I love you, Zakky

P.S. I did some drawings of Donna, when she was dying, and after she died, as I did for other friends when they died, it helped me.I still have them, and will share them with you one day.
