Does Death Part People Forever?
I have had a few too many losses in the past five years in the way of bereavements. First my grandfather passed away, then my ex-husband, then my uncle, then my mother, then my best friend, then my husband’s father. That is a lot to deal with in anyone’s estimation. Obviously I think about these dear departed often and my daughter seems instinctively to know when I am thinking of them and the old times. She made an observation the other days which illustrates that she has wisdom way beyond her fifteen years. She said, “Mom, just because these people are dead does not mean your relationship with them has ended. Don’t worry about that.” I had a wonderful sense of release when she said that and I enjoy thinking about them now with a sense of happiness.
