We never want to let go of them, those we love.
How could it be any different than that?
We loved them, hold them still in the glimpsed silences between tears and loss, where we espy the possibility of peace.
Yet true peace comes in its own way, at its proper time, clothed in the faces of other beloved ones, who search for their path. In our nurturing of the next generations let us move forward with hope.
May we have the courage to believe that even now we too are enfolded in Love.
