“This Is Not Goodbye” is one of the songs played yesterday at the last virtual wake for my beloved sister in law Ging Daisy Grasparil Engle during a presentation of treasured photographs taken throughout her beautiful well-lived life.
Wishing Daisy Godspeed, wishing my brother Nonoy and his whole family, and the Grasparil family His solace and comfort at this time of sorrow.
A quote from the song is on the first photo taken at dawn yesterday, Venus upper left Crescent Moon lower right. The other photos are night scenes taken previously.”
“This is Not Goodbye”
I can see it in your eyes that you are restless
The time has come for you to leave
It’s so hard to let you go
But in this life I know you have to be who you were made to beAs you step out on the road I’ll say a prayer
So that in my heart you always will be there This is not goodbye
I know we’ll meet again
So let your life begin
‘Cause this is not goodbye’
It’s just “I love you” to take with you
Until you’re home again
The stirring in your soul has left you wondering
Should you stay or turn around
Well, just remember that your dreams they are a promise
That you were made to change the world
So don’t let fear stop you now, ’causeThis is not goodbye
I know we’ll meet again
So let your life begin
‘Cause this is not goodbye
It’s just “I love you” to take with you
Until you’re home again Oh-oh-oh
I know the brightest star above
Was created by the one who loved
More than we’ll ever know
To guide you when you’re lost
What started as a still, small voice
Is raging now and your only choice
Is to follow who you are
So follow who you are, ’cause This is not goodbye
I know we’ll meet again
Oh This is not goodbye
I know we’ll meet again
So let your life begin
‘Cause this is not goodbye
It’s just “I love you” to take with you
Until you’re home
It is “I love you” to take with you
Until you’re home
It is “I love you” to take with you
Until you’re home again
