We are, and always will be

 This morning, in the silence and strangeness of my daily life now, I stood at the kitchen window and gazed up at the sunlight streaming through the trees -  stood in my grief and solitude and felt something rush through me, so powerfully and assuringly.  I stood there soaking it in, listening, and the words came to me

"You and I, in the sacred dimension, remain.

In the Light, we remain, and in the darkness too.
In the hope, we remain, and in the fear we are One still.
In all the love, we remain, and all the pain of separation - we remain.

In the gratitude and the grief, we remain.

In all the years shared, every hour of every night and day, seemingly vanished but never lost or forgotten, we remain.

In the Time Behind we call memory, in the Time Ahead we call the future, in the fleeting Mystery of the Present Moment - we remain.

We remain, and will always be......One."

 

This came through me and brought an incredible elevation of my Spirit,  an altered state characterized by much peace, which lasted throughout the morning and on, throughout the day.

As I navigate this life altering loss, "manage" my grief, "process" it and try to do all the right things to "move forward", the gift of this experience is overwhelming in its comfort, hope and peace. It has left me with a prayer to speak to the sky, when I stand in the forest, seemingly alone, remembering.

                                              We remain, and always will be, One.
