Today I buried a love
one who made one “vow” for two reasons in their life. One was to “protect the
family and the other was to serve a country”. And in these two choices made; there
was destined to be change. At any time and age that did affect many lives. But not
all in the same in test, overtime. And there will be times in our life where we will place
our own understanding to the side. Why, because people can change; just not always
in our anticipated time frame, where many people are not destined to see; what
they will never presently believe. And before we proceed to attend another
funeral let’s attempt to be more respectful to the dead. If not more thoughtful
to ourselves before trading places with the person who silently lay’s in a
casket. So judge this passage as you like. But be more prepared to see the
truth in a brand new light.
As I sat in peace I
could see the crowd watching me and my love ones think. Wondering clearly to
see through what is hidden of a possible story. I could hear laughter and see
the pain in the eyes of those who were not prepared and prepared to say
goodbye. I could feel a breeze of peace over me as it passed gently, and I didn’t
need to know the stories left untold, because I had made my peace a long time
ago.
The point of this story line
is you could choose to drag on through life surrendering to all the pain endured over the
days of your lives; but why not let go of allowing it to dictate how you grow. If
you could find many reasons to be happy beyond your disappointments; would you
allow another person to repeat the same past situations? Because some of us feel
that our pain is greater than another person’s loss. And I can vouch to what happens
in this life can never be erased when it comes to people that do contribute to
your joy and misery. But if a person cannot be forgiven of their infirmities and
faults, it really means you have not moved on. So when death does arrive at
your door step by surprise; will you ask it to come another day, because I have
unfinished business in my life.
-Angel L, I have more
than one story to share. Through a new
looking glass.
