Journal Thoughts on Mother's Death
Since mother died, I’m left with papers, files, and little snippets of her life. Though she was complex and had been injured by life, she was beautiful. She could heal the hurt in others and seemed to understand the desires of others, even those I would have feared.
How do we go from animate to inanimate? It's shocking to see someone you love go from a thinking emotional sphere to an empty vessel. One moment there is love and the next, not even the capacity for love.

I could well agree with these thoughts:
"Though she was complex and had been injured by life, she was beautiful. She could heal the hurt in others and seemed to understand the desires of others, even those I would have feared."

Most will struggle with the reality of death's finality. Inevitably, it's the most natural thing in the world yet we become overwhelmed & confused by it in many instances. Circumstances play their part too, I know. Some will go on a long journey in the hope of finding peace. May you too find that peace one day. :-)

Not a singular act but simply a passage between stations, and life best called a waking dream. That, the quiet sum of my beliefs.
The departed not distant or forgotten but move among us as does the breeze 🌼

Remember the good memories with her. She would want you to live your life. Keep on writing.

As time matches on you'll have visits from your mother. It's hard to explain how it happens. Often I feel my father on my shoulder advising and helping me with work problems. My mom too, she had a fiery way. She scared me when I was younger but as we moved later into our lives, she was always present with protection. She actually taught me the art of protecting others. I'm older now and mentor where I can. You'll understand soon that while your mother is gone in body, she will always be with you. The spirit lives on and I hope that energy finds you and guides you .....
