And You Let Him Go (In Memory of River Phoenix, 21 Years Later)

[@eternalriver7866]

Rivers spirit is so strong. I stopped thinking about him for a few days and then I looked for a television online and it brought up Stand By Me DVD for no reason. Then my bf put me on hold at work and the song was Stand By Me. River is always with us

[@abigaillewallen2268]

Eternal River Is he with me too?

[@LunaLu-00]

Its exactly like that with him, isn't it?! I went on with my life, after a long period of grief and obsession with him, and I was so sure I was over it, i even considered throwing away a book a bought about him, but then all of a sudden, out of literally nowhere, i haven't seen a movie or heard a song, none of that, just all of a sudden I started my obsession with him again and this time its even 100 times harder??!! What the heck?? Like you said, his energy is not leaving this world, its that strong and special...the glitter trail he left behind is falling on us every day....💫💔🌟

[@StellaAppleRox]

Every River Phoenix fan in the world should see this video. Brought me to tears.

[@abigaillewallen2268]

Stella Apple I'm a big fan of his, and all I want to do is hug him and tell him how much I love him!!! I love you River!!!😭😭❤❤

[@StellaAppleRox]

Abigail Lewallen I know how you feel. There isn't a week that goes by that he doesn't pop in my mind. I have numerous pictures of him on my phone and laptop. He reminds me to remain a vegetarian and to stay an activist for animals and the planet. There will never be another River. I search all the time in actors/singers nowadays and just don't find it. The world lost a true angel that day.

[@southsidelunaticx8595]

i cried too:(

[@LunaLu-00]

@@StellaAppleRox You explained everything I feel about him ...Eternal River...and what an influence...sometimes, without thinking , I almost order something that has some animal ingredient ,like milk in an ice cream, and I immediately think of him and I don't do it! His presence was a gift to us..even for such a short time he left an unforgettable trail...

[@eatprayphoenix9004]

The description :( love this so much, I'm so sad :(

[@francescaf.7942]

Your life was short but you lived intensely, however it didn't have to end like this, you had to live, grow up, become an adult man, live for yourself and for those who loved you. Life has given you so much in your few years of life but it has betrayed you, it has not granted you the most precious thing that exists: Life itself. Wherever you are, I hope you are happy and peaceful, it is not a hope but a claim, you have the right to it. ❤😞
