The Days Are Getting Longer...., 8 weeks ago today Options

[E.M]

8 weeks ago today you left us my dear Denis, the world hasn't stopped and I haven't stopped missing you.

Today I planted more bulbs and flowers on your resting place, soon it will be full of vibrant flowers, full of life..... The wind chime hanging from the tree sounds beautiful, gently playing in the soft breeze.

So thank you for being here then and thank you for being here now.

Soon you will be able to speak more clearly with the 'professional help' I've enlisted.....I'll be waiting!

I'll be looking for that bright star tonight.... for me you will always be my brightest star.

Love just doesn't finish here in this life. Love is ETERNAL.

............

Thank you to all the people here who shared their kind words with me and helped me in those early days, you all have such warm hearts.

Your words have helped heal my broken heart. Well not all of it, there will always be a little piece of my heart that will refuse to be mended! But thank you from the bottom of mine anyway!

Dear Judith,

Yes of course I do, I believe everyone has the capacity to love once more, I do believe everyone will eventually start to see the beautiful things in life once more.

I know deep down you ARE thankful for the years you had together otherwise I don't think you would be here. Your hurt and pain are running parallel with these feelings but they are still there.

Am I strong? It's only because I believe that they ARE still here, each and every day, they STILL exist, (just not in their same life form) and from that I get my strength. It just depends if you believe in this or not.

We are no longer able to communicate in the ways that we have been able to do before, but we can still communicate, and if we can't then that's when we can look to professional communicators. If your loved ones aren't still existing on another level then where does all this evidence come from that does indeed suggest an afterlife. If I didn't believe this then I think I would have crumbled ages ago.

There will always be pain but I try to look at death in a different perspective, I truely belive that our time on earth is only a tiny part of the bigger picture and that we do indeed spend more time 'away' from earth than we do here. Our time here on earth is quite harsh compared to where they are, in a place full of such love, so I try not to be sad for them, in fact don't you think we are the one with the raw deal living in this place full of anguish, hatred, greed, pain and hurt etc. It's a tough old world with lots of hard lessons to learn before we can quit and move onto the next level. And when we do, wow what a reunion we will have before us!

It took me a long while to accept euthanasia without the feelings of guilt, the Greek meaning is 'Good Death'. A contradiction you would think but not really, a good death has got to mean one free of pain, or the ending of pain.

I lost my Marshall two years ago at the age of 8mths, it hurt tremendously because he was still a young and innocent baby in my eyes and didn't deserve to go so soon, but I know now that he IS in a better place. He is not here with me but what I do know is where he is at, there is no suffering, and to know that he will never suffer any more is one small thing I can actually be thankful for. Where they are now no one or nothing can ever hurt them again.

Try and enjoy those warm sunny days because when you sit in your garden Furry may just be sitting there right next to you enjoying it too!

And believe me you will heal, little by little, day by day, you might not recognise it just yet. And yes you do have my strength, and that you will also find little by little, day by day.

Take care Judith.
