love you all
thank you all

Engin, there is an expression: "When Christ walked the earth." Meaning when Christ was alive on Earth.
I think it is the same: "When you walked the earth." Walked the Earth is more poetic, a little more refined, subtle than when you lived on earth, especially since you live now!
Loving you both,
