We lost a wonderful spirit and a beautiful person in Esther Earl this week. In July, some of Esther's friends put together a scrapbook of letters and pictures for Esther, who was suffering from Cancer. Together, they spent some amazing time together, and even got to share some laughs with Esther's favorite author, John Green. You can see his vlog about that here: www.youtube.com I decided to write a song as my part of the scrapbook, and from what I have been told, Esther really liked it. She was such a kind and gracious girl, it warms my heart to know that I brought her at least one smile, though I rarely saw her without a smile on her face. For all those that knew her, this is a difficult time, and even for those who did not - her loss is palpable and thunderous today. I hope that this bit of music helps us celebrate a wonderful girl, who made so many of our lives a bit brighter. Please donate and help Esther's family cover the huge medical bills. www.thehpalliance.org The Lyrics: And now the glues all dried The pages are all smooth All thats missing are your eyes A scrapbook full of love Just bursting at the seams These pictures are crystal clear Text on the internet Or words on the phone Esther, you're not alone Life has a way of throwing us into the deep end Have faith, we'll learn to swim with the help of our friends Be unabashed, if you make a splash Everyone is right there by your To all those who know you well And those who wish they did Theres something magical ...
