To all
I was sad to hear my sisters Book of Life has ended. The sorrowful feeling of death in our heart tends to get heavy but does lessen over time, as our mind allows our broken hearts to mend. The good memories will continue on. The best part of death that keeps living on is all the good memories that get passed along. When I say good memories continue on we can never replace what we’ve lost. Remember a memory or good thought come at no cost.
Death is a reminder of how precious life is. Until someone experiences the grief from a death it would be hard to understand the true meaning or how we feel as individuals. Not in our mind they couldn’t understand how we feel, this being our broken heart.
A death now allows our mind to fully accept the end is over which we have no choice. We then can understand and accept her book of life has ended. Death being somewhat of a fear, if we don’t have fear of the end we can live a content life knowing we have accepted something we cannot change. One choice we have no control of is the end.
Her new trail is not for us to see, we have to live what she lived our life journey and only then we will see, what’s in her new book of life called memories.
On this life journey which we are all on, our journeys much shorter; it’s here then it’s gone. As we take each day forward staying on life’s path, we will still have tears of sadness but good memories always last.
The memories of my sister will help keep me going on as shes now resting in peace as the memories are passed on.
Losing a sister I had for 65 years is devastating, finding out by Google 10 months later is beyond heartbreak. How sad the words heartbreak and family can be so broken. Until we meet again.
XOXO🙏
Malcolm
