its only after you've been through the darkness of hell that you understand how beauitful the light of heaven is. and you'll never understand how wonderful life is untill it is taken away from you.

i miss you

hi granda julie here, just thought id say a few words. i miss you so much granda eddie im finding it so hard to cope with out you here. i love you to bits. nana has had her knee done again and she is doing great she is walking again aswell. she is missing you just as much as i am. it just isnt the same without you its so hard walking through the front door and your not there on ya chair. i just wish you would walk through the door and give me a massive cuddle and tell me you love me. i wish i was with you in your arms cuddling into you like i did when i was a little girl. love julie.(the pest) as you always called me when i wanted somthing. or and i havent changed i still head straight for the kitchen when i go to see nana. i say hello to you everytime i am down i always stand at the back door and talk to you. cause nan has a planter in the back yard with a lovely little bush in with your plack on the front. and your ashes are in there aswell so you are still with us in your yard where you liked to be with your plants. why did you have to go? it wasnt your turn you had plenty of life in you. that horrible bug just stole you from us.

love julieanne i love you granda eddie. xxxxxx

In Sympathy

So sorry for your loss, your story has touched my heart. My nan passed away last year and it feels like my whole world has been taken away. My thoughts are with you. God bless. I hope you find this poem of comfort, as I have done. x

What is Dying?

A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says 'She is gone'.

Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large now as when I last saw her. Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.

And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone there are others who are watching her coming over their horizon and other voices take up a glad shout 'There she comes!'

That is what dying is. An horizon and just the limit of our sight.

Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further.
