A Precioous Miracle of love Everlasting

Memories and only with Love.  Strength moves us forward … ever onward.  Hope and Faith lead us towards our “Next Step.”   A Precious Miracle of Love Everlasting

Dads Sister, our Aunt Wanda was very sick and we wanted to take our Father to his Beloved Sister … one last time. He still could not speak but we found that his words were…not necessary. Two of his strong young great Nephews … left his Walker downstairs and with one on each side of him Lifted Dad up that staircase. His Sister was resting in the large bed and she patted the place beside her and said, “Kenny, come up here beside me,” and the two of them held hands like the little children they once had been.  So Natural and so Loving and so at Peace … just Happy to be Together. 

As we stood around the bed in Silence … much moved … Aunt Wanda, frail but with a serene Happiness said to her brother … “Kenny I do not want you to Grieve for me.  I have been waiting for half of my Life to be Reunited with my Husband … and I am excited to go”   Powerful!  We all knew that it was so.

The Stillness in that room from all of us was electric. The Emotions high.  The Love at that moment washed over us … and none of us could or would ever Forget … what we had Witnessed.  Her Belief in the Next Step of her Personal Journey , was so Strong and so very Beautiful.  Both young and old were given a Gift that day … Never to be Forgotten.  It was a

 “Gift of Hope”  and an Everlasting Journey of Love … of Growth … and of Reconnecting.

It is more than enough for me, even though others may think I am crazy … I know that I am not.  In a World that is roller coasting its way to a Pile up of Lost Souls … perhaps Faith and Hope … is a “Saving Grace.”
