The Art of Healing

Dear Irreplaceable You

Hello! I hope you’re doing well. I’m whole-heartily sorry for not writing this earlier, I don’t have any excuses. As I’m writing this I don’t know what to say to you. I wish I told you everything before you departed. I wanted to say thank you so much for all you have done for me. You don’t know how much you changed my life. You showed me that there was kindness in humanity. You are my eternal friend, a priceless treasure, and an angel from god.

I wish I told you everything, about the abuse, about how much I loved you, and how much of an inspiration you are. It’s not fair; it’s not fair where you are. Cancer is a real horrendous thing. It took you away and it’s not fair. Without you here with us, the world has become a little less bright. Even though I’m in college, I still pass by the art room that you occupied. When I do, I’m filled with the countless memories that make life worth living. You were the one of the greatest teachers, and you should have been credited for it. There was nobody who didn’t like you. You were beloved by all, and nobody could deny that. You gave us kindness, and provided us hope for the future.

But you’re gone now and I’m sad, but I know that you’re at peace, and it would be selfish of me to ask for you back. You’ve always had a great intuition about the people you knew. I feel you already know what I wanted to say, even before I knew what it was. When we meet again, I’ll have to tell you about everything you’ve missed. The friends I met, DeviantArt, the funny stories, and the amazing world we live in. I can’t wait to see that day.

From your student, and friend,
The Artist You’ve Created
This is for my former teacher that died of bone cancer. She was filled with life, and happiness that could melt even the coldest of hearts. She was loved by everyone in our school, and when she died. Nearly all of the students came to pay their final respects (the funeral home couldn't accommodate the amount of people that was showing up, it was crazy but expected) I hope you enjoy!
