    When I was a young boy back in the early 70's, I only had one friend. A girl named Veronica who was a year older and lived across the street. When I was around 6 or 7, she developed a brain tumor and wound up passing away in the next year. This song has always been a reminder of our friendship that was ended too soon, and I always get teary-eyed when I hear it.

    To me this is not a sad song. Yeah, it's about dying and some regret about decisions made in life, but at the same time it affirms a life that was lived to the fullest. Tt also makes it very clear that life goes on even without us, and that even in death our presence is always felt. Great lyrics and catchy melody.

    As a strong believer that there is life after death, this is a song [even if filled great sadness] that we will carry on in our hearts, in our souls for eternity as it will transcend time and space. To all the people who have lost their loved ones in their lifetime, have faith because it is the only force that gives us hope, that drives us forward along our life's journey. I firmly believe that we will reunite one day in God's Kingdom for everlasting life. Do not despair, we are here on Earth for only a brief passage in time like a spec of dust. To all the people that have been diagnosed and are stricken with a terminal disease, have faith that there are greater things waiting for you in God's Kingdom. My heart and compassion pours out along with my prayers for all of you. May God bless you all. I have lost many family members and friends along my life's journey, but I have faith and refuse to believe that we turn into dust and nothing more.

    My best friend's son passed away 9 weeks ago of an OD. I guess everybody thought I knew and I just found out about 8 hours ago. He was just 25. I had just caught him on FB about a week before he passed and asked how his dad and mom and he was doing. He was thrilled to hear from me, it was a 20 minute conversation easy. It shocked me to the core, and it hurts, such a joy to be around. RIP Jackson, I think this song fits you, me, your dad and mom.

    I'm back again with something to share with all the believers and non-believers regardless of their faith. I lost my dear cousin Massimo in May of last year, at the age of 70. He died of an aggressive brain tumor. In a month he was gone. My aunt Lina and cousin Emanuela [mom and sister to Massimo] cared for him right to the end. Family gathered around him in his final moments. His youngest daughter Sara was known to have psychic abilities. Just moments before he took his last breath, Sara pointed out to a corner of the room saying "look grandpa and grandma are here". The relatives were saying where? Where? They couldn't see them only Sara and she described them perfectly. They were shocked. Upon their appearance that's when Massimo passed away. They came for him and that reinforced my faith in God that there is a place for us regardless of our skin color, ethnic and religious background. What I'm trying to say as a Roman Catholic, that we are all God's children. My grandparents to Sara are great grandparents.
