Colin's thoughts on not being afraid
Created by Brian 9 years ago
About two years before his death, Colin wrote a letter to a friend, Jennifer Jones, who was facing terminal cancer.
The letter mentions the 'great unknown' and an 'awfully big adventure'. He hoped Jennifer would face the future unafraid.
He ended with a poem modestly described as an "attempt at verse":
"Though your body is mortal
Your soul is a spark from the eternal
And as it is immortal
It lives on, in the next world
Because it is indestructible
Therefore, so are you!
The true you is your soul
So believe and be unafraid."
