Yesterday while looking at Sue's pictures in the quiet of my home, I felt her presence. Inside the feelings of grief for the loss of my friend resurfaced and I felt so sad. I have missed our conversations and our working together side by side. I've missed our emails and the just plain sharing of fun times together. Most of all I miss 'her'. Sue was a great human being, one of those gals that everyone liked.
I just sat there alone and thought about how each of us has one life and one life path. Only God knows the direction and only God can say when it is time to come Home. I felt tears swelling in my eyes, when at the same moment I felt Sue's presence with me. It was as if she was telling me to stop grieving because she was 'ok' and that she and Tom were together and all was well with her soul....and she wanted all to be well with mine.
I felt a quiet peace about things, because every now and then I need a gentle reminder that this crazy life here on earth is not the end...but only the beginning, a stepping stone that leads down a path to something far greater than any of us can ever understand.
.....I will still miss Sue every day of my life.....yet, even beyond the veil, she lets me know that all is well.
