Thinking of all of those we love but have laid to rest this year and all of the lovely families I’ve met who will be facing a very different - a quieter and less twinkly Christmas.
I said just recently that I don’t know what’s out there or up there, none of us do but whilst we can’t see them now, some of us believe they live on, somewhere beyond our sight, beyond our understanding. Like ships that have sailed beyond the horizon, they are not gone; they are simply out of view because we know there’s more out there than what we can see. The seas are as vast as the mysteries of life itself - just because we can’t see the shore our loved ones have reached, doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
So as the lights glow, the carols play and we’re held gently, united in memoriam at this special time of year, let’s welcome them in this Christmas – build them into our traditions, tell their stories, share the kindness they taught us so well. Let our love for them be a lantern that lights the door through which they’ll enter 💕
Wishing you all a peaceful Christmas - sending out my love x
