Love You to the Moon and Back

A Real Life Story by Glenn Hansen

Dedicated to Sweet Judith, wherever you are in God’s universe.

CHAPTER 19

Judy was a delight, an amazing person in the ways I have described, and a remarkable close friend. We touched each other in a profound way I will always treasure. I loved her as a friend and she loved me as a friend.

So, for better or worse, life goes on. I am, more than ever, committed to continue to grow in a positive way that is beneficial to people in my own small way. Love, caring, sharing, mutual support, respect; this is the path I want to continue to take in my journey. I think these characteristics should be most prevalent in human relationships; not hate, avarice, lust for power, war, jealousy and so on.

We supposedly have brains with the ability to reason. Well, we don’t do a good job utilizing this ability. Why can’t the world see we would be much better off working together in peace and harmony and accept each other as we are? We don’t always have to agree, but we can cooperate and civilly work disagreements out. What good does it do to harm or kill each other? Such is the conundrum that is our world. We can’t ever give up trying to do better. This is the path that humankind must take. This is where hope lives.

Judy, my dear Sweet Judith, I already greatly miss you and always will, and I am glad for this. When I think of you, it takes me to a very good and happy place. I will always remember the unconditional support we gave each other. And whenever I think of you I will think of: “Love you to the moon and back.”
