Robyn:
My thoughts are with you. I know it is hard to lose someone. She sounds like she was a wonderful person who enjoyed and cherished life. As well, as she was cherished and enjoyed by you in her life.
All you have to do is walk through the park and a part of her is there with you. She will always be with you regardless.. she will be with you when you hear the laughter of children playing, the wind blowing, storms passing through, and in the bright sunlight coming through the branches of trees, dancing as shadows on the ground.
I know this because ?
I too have losses. My Mom, Uncle Hobart, Cousin Eddie,Grandma Brown,Grandma Jaime, and my Mother-in-law Jean. All within a few years of eachother.
I feel them even though they are not here with us physically. I hear them through the same.. and as they walk through my memories of them. They pass through, as I hear children laughing, the breezes and the cool rain. Then I am comforted to know they are with me still and perhaps I will see them again. Death may be another door we don't know what lies after.
