Today I went to visitng hours at the local funeral home to pay my respects to the family of a 21 yr old boy I took care of when he was just a little baby. He had grown into a very handsome young man and spent the last 21 yrs touching people's lives with his smile. The line was long but I didn't mind waiting. When I hugged his mom all she could say was "You held him as a baby". I think it brought her back to those days. He would cry for his mom then and now she is crying for him. I had rehearsed what I would say but all I said was "Yes I did, Yes I did". i wanted to tell her something that would help her, I wanted to tell her I would be there if she wanted to talk sometime. Maybe she will know that.
This had been the first time I had been to this funeral home since Mary died. He was in the same spot she had been in. Both young people gone too soon. Both the physical shell that is left after the spirit leaves the body. All the bright energy, their light gone from this form. But they are not dead. Their light lives on and we will join them when it is our time.
Always tell the people you love that you love them. I love you......Anne
