AFFIRMATION
I honour the memories of my loved ones by always remembering their
light.
The one thing that we can be very certain of in our life on
this plane is that the body, which houses the spirit, does indeed die. Those that are left behind, mourn the loss of
the light of the person’s soul whom they will not be able to see in the
physical form. This sorrow that one
feels comes from the heart centre because we will inevitably miss the energy of
their physical existence and at the time, it can seem heart breaking, but
experience has taught us that this loss, this pain, does ease with time. We keep that person alive by remembering the
light of their soul and cling to the good that we saw in them, thus we honour
their memories in this way.
When you come to understand that death is just a transition
and the soul never dies you create an acceptance that mitigates any fears or
anguish associated with this natural part of life and it provides comfort to
know that one has merely passed on. The
mind finds it hard to reconcile when death comes to a loved one unexpectedly,
or when one’s life is taken due to the actions of another, the loss and pain in
these circumstances can seem unbearable to those that are left behind.
The more you learn to embrace the fullness of life you come
to realise that there is always a purpose and a reason for everything that
happens, no matter the circumstances.
However, death comes as a reminder for our own mortality, giving us time
to pause and consider aspects of our own lives, questioning are we living or
merely existing. Death is a reminder to
live with an open heart, to forgive all transgressions and to love each day as
if it were your last.
In the last two weeks, I have experienced two such deaths in
my family and I feel the depth of sorrow amongst my family members who are
closely affected by the loss. Today I
honour my family members who have passed on, who are now at peace and whose
souls are at rest.
I am glad that I am reminded to tell those whom I am close
to that I love and thank them for being in my life. I am reminded to make each day count and
our time here is but brief.
Just for today, I humbly ask that you to take a moment and
send a thought of love to someone you know that has passed on. For love is our essential nature, our true
essence and it never dies, it continually transforms and shines its beacon of
light guiding us always through the dark.
