🪽5 years since my little brother died. We honored him on the summer solstice. ☀️It was such a beautiful day, not a cloud in the sky. An irony I resented at the time. Now I can see so clearly what was being asked of us, those of us left behind in the wake of the loss…
🪽We are being asked to carry the depths of feeling and experiencing this thing called living. To learn the ebb and flow of pain and joy co-existing.
🪽We are being asked do acknowledge that the burden of this life is loosing what we are attached to, but never, EVER loosing love.
✨Love is the language of what is true and real and everlasting. True love is beyound earthly attachments, even though facing that reality as a human is one of the most painful things we experience.
🪽Going to the depths of loss can bring a renewed sense of life, of awareness, even with the pain, the anger, the sadness.
✨ It is from the darkness rises the sun. And so, too when we go in and in - we can touch this divine love. And in that cloak of divine love we find peace. Even if it is just for a little bit. 🤍✨🪽
