Hayley Okines, Beautiful, Smiling, Inspiring

Hayley Okines, beautiful, smiling, inspiring, has passed.

17

Body of a hundred year old.

She always seemed to be smiling, excited, and happy to be herself.

I am floored. I am floored I tell you.

And since I never met her except through television, reading, videos, that's probably silly.

If so that is fine.

I'm floored.

Hayley Okines was a go getter. Much less effort and acheivement, by much physically healthier people is the norm.

Anyone not inspired by Hayley, is  not capable of being inspired. Planet wide, she blew the roof off the joint with her unbelievable enthusiasm and action, and accomplishments.

Hayley was a published author, and did not use her physical adversity as a justification for inaction. Quite the opposite instead.

I wish I could write more, but I can't, I am floored. Oddly though, I am also inspired.

Farewell Hayley. Beautiful, smiling, inspiring forever.
