Diary Entry:

Today is the day. The angels have swept down and have taken another soul to embrace in a new life of happiness. Mother is no longer with us. She passed into a new world, peacefully though, a cocktail at her side, the sun shimmering over the ocean waves with the sound of seagulls flying above. Mother loved Spain, I remember when she took me to swim with dolphins, we'd never laughed so much when it bit my foot… She isn't in pain now and she died a happy women in a place true to her heart.

Feelings of loss but also relief. She went in a hot air balloon and saw the sun rise over the Valley of the Kings, she went to America and saw the Hollywood Hills. She made each day count, an endless parade of fond memories. She loved to travel, I remember when she first went to spain, she would sit at the Bar Elsa every evening, watching the moonlight glisten on the dark body of ocean water.

Where do I go from here? Can I exchange one life for another? - If a caterpillar can, why can't I? Mother said she wants me to live in happiness, to never let anyone stop me having fun. She was my inspiration, my heart. Rest in peace mother.

Comment from Becky and Ris:

we loved it it so realistic and feels true very 
loved how you spoke about about feelings and gave rislene shivers and is very simple and very understandable as if people can relate to it.
