Undoubtedly, Jordan's curiosity, intellect, and compassion redefined the world for many of us gathered here today. So, as we reminisce and reflect, let us allow ourselves to be inspired by these amazing qualities and carry the spirit of Jordan with us as we move forward in our own lives.
In times of sadness, we often find solace in music, poetry, and prayer. And today, I would like to share with you a song by Marina, titled "Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land." This piece of music resonates with the essence of Jordan – an old soul who navigated through this modern world with wisdom and grace.
[Song Lyrics]
"You don't have to be like everybody else.
You don't have to fit into the norm.
You are not here to conform.
I am not here to conform.
They were born to dive deep, oh.
Ooh, they were born to be unique.
Ancient dreams in a modern land."
As these lyrics beautifully express, our dear Jordan chose to embrace their uniqueness and took the path less traveled. They were not afraid to follow their dreams, however unconventional they may be, and encouraged others to do the same.
Jordan's empathy and intuition defied the limits of age and experience, making them seem to possess ancient wisdom as they navigated the complexities of life. This rare trait extended to their relationships, where they knew how to bring comfort and understanding to those in need.
We can carry the spirit of Jordan with us by embracing our own dreams, and allowing ourselves to question conventions. We can celebrate their life by pursuing our passions with unwavering commitment while cultivating kindness and love towards one another.
By doing these things, we do not hold on to sadness and grief, but rather, find joy in the life and memories that Jordan left behind. We allow their legacy to live on through our actions and the way we lead our own lives.
As we say our final goodbyes, it is essential to recognize that although Jordan Toms has physically departed this world, their spirit will continue to live on within our hearts, inspiring us to be the best version of ourselves.
Rest in peace, sweet Jordan. Thank you for the lessons, the laughter, and the love. You may no longer be here in body, but your spirit will live on in all those whose lives you've touched.
May we always remember to live as Jordan did – with kindness, unafraid to dream our ancient dreams in this modern land.
