Calling Sandy Sparkles

[ Edited ]

@SandySparkles 

 

I am sorry I didn't have this for you sooner.  I couldn't find it and recovered it after a 24 hour search.

 

This passage helps me so very much. 

 

From the time I was a very young child I "saw" the loss of someone just before they turned twenty.  I didn't tell anyone assuming it was myself and was surprised as I went into my 20's.

The loss was our younger son whom loved animals and radiated a gentle calmness that I expected him to do something where he nurtured us.  I knew when we got the call from the hospital that he had been in a wreck.

 

Hopefully as you go through the coming days, you will find some comfort in this passage which is actually part of a sermon given by a priest.

@ECBG,

Thank you for this.

I knew you had lost your son but I never heard before your/his story.

I will think of him too. With you.

and to @Sandy Sparkles, I see that you recently lost your mother. I did too and am trying to feel her loving spirit still with me. 

I know and I wish I, we all had a more natural acceptance of death.

I like to think we have 2 lives-our one on earth and in heaven and that we cannot be parted, physically yes but in every other way, we can still know and feel each others love and heart and spirit. It for me is getting used to that and not being able to see or touch her, be with her physically, I'm sure you know.

Anyway, I hope for a sense of peace for us all.

Thank you so very much.  There was another part to what I say as well, yes, that happened too.  I am so highly intuitive sometimes I almost don't want to breathe.  

Rearing two sons, I always had that in the back of my mind, yet I was powerless.

Thank you again.

@ECBG,

I know there will never be words to express for the loss of your precious son.

I often think of you and your joy and purpose in life through your posts and it encourages me through loss. You probably aren't even aware of how many you touch that way.

And knowing your intuitive spirit, I bet you do feel your son so much everyday and his beautiful spirit.

Thank you again for that comforting post.💞

@ECBG I am struggling through tears to find words that express how deeply touched, and inspired I am in this moment!😢 THANK  YOU for the extra effort it took for you to locate  these words of comfort, and hope!!! THANK YOU for sharing such an intimate corner of your life!!!😊

 

I am so sorry to learn of the loss of your dear son.😔 My memory escapes me, so please forgive me if you have mentioned it previously.

 

I am quite grief-stricken, but have reread this sermon several times, and my heart smiles with each reading. THANK YOU again for sharing these wonderful words of solace. I am going to print them, and carry them with me for the times when I am out and about, and overcome with emotion as I have been as of late..❤

Honey, this passage is available nicely printed which you can have matted and framed to hang in your private space if you like.

Just google the print by title and author.
