Recently I spoke to a person that wondered if it was
different for someone like me when a person they love crosses
over. I have to tell you….no it is
not. I grieve the same as anyone else the physical
life that is no longer here with me. I
have a deep understanding and knowledge that life does not end when the
physical body dies. Yet, in my humanness
I have the full awareness that the person I have loved and spent my life with for almost 20
years will not walk through our doorway and into our house again. We will not share the Harley rides, the trips
to the coast or for that matter any other physical event again. Knowing this is the way it now is brings a sense of sadness and grief.
What may be different for me compared to other’s that aren’t
as aware of life continuing on after the essence leaves the body is I feel and hear Rob
often. He sends me messages and assists
me through my processing of his physical loss.
Two days ago I was laying on my couch with the emotions that come from
grief engulfing me, as tears ran down my cheeks I felt Rob’s presence then
heard these words:
“I didn’t kiss you enough”
“I didn’t look into your eyes enough”
He then showed me a series of images of him doing other
things such as sitting at the computer looking for car or motorcycle
parts. Out in the garage puttering
around. Sitting together on the couch him being lost in thought with me but, not with me.
Speaking to others while I waited for him at home. There were so many images of what felt important to him at the time yet, took him away from the expressions
of love we share here on Earth. As this
message came through along with the images, I knew the same was true for
me. I didn’t take every opportunity
possible to show the love I felt for him for many of the same reasons. Life was happening creating the illusion that
there were other things that were more important.
This physical illusion many times distracts us from
the truth of life. What you own, what
you do, where you go, how thin or pretty you are really is not what's important
in living this life. Moving through the barriers that have shrouded
mankind for far too long keeping each person from remembering to live from the
heart, taking every opportunity to express the love that they feel openly, freely
and often is the true importance of this life.
If you have the urge to hug
the people you love, do it. If you have
the urge to kiss those people, do it. If
you have the urge to look into their eyes, I will once again say, do it. The moment to do it is now. Much
love to all of you. I send you hugs,
kisses and of course an intense look into your eyes, which hold the wisdom and beauty of the life you
are.
