Her frail body lays almost lifeless as she fights to breath. They gather all around each taking the time to make their peace, say their goodbyes. She sees the light shining down the stairs coming down from what she calls heaven.

Her soul floats as she looks down on this frail body that once had so much life in it. She sees her children as they weep next to her bed side. She sees all the memories hanging on the walls. She looks up to the beautiful staircase that awaits to take her to the next journey of her life.

Her soul whispers softly to each of them as she says, don't cry for me I lived a great life. I watched you grow into the amazing individuals you are today. I will walk up those stairs but I will not ever leave you.

With every breath you take, with every beat of your heart I will live on. When the winds kiss the trees you will hear me speak. When the sun warms your skin you will feel my love. When the moon lights your path you will receive my guidance.

Though I walk towards the light, while I travel those stairs, while I move to the next chapter of this life, I'm always by your side.
