Passing

I recently lost a family memeber who ahs seen show much and gave back even more in his time, and it got me thing becuase my grandpa my be soon giving back to the universe in kind as well. so me this is from a warm place i dont really show. enjoy.

Everyday we wake up, go to work, go hone spend time with family, sleep and wake to do it over again. But everyday something different will happen that will change the days ahead forever. People believe that when someone passes on that they are lost forever. That's a lie. They influence the next generation after them even after decades because they were influence by people they loved and who been long since gone. The cycle repeats itself only to setup the basis for the next, because the next generation will build upon their teachings.
When it comes to the service and wake, you see and feel sadness and pain. Yes they are unbearable, but required help strengthen the resolve as whole.
The family's bond grows tighter and stronger. The wake is when you look past all the pain and talk about all the great moments about a person. You take all the memories and share them with everyone that this person has touched and influenced in there life.
Then the process of sorrow and pain become less with the stories and laughter that theyy have brought you. Warmth replaces coldness, fear is replaced with hope, grief is replaced by joy. Time heals more than force. Everyday will be different with this passing, but everyday will be brighter than the last by them and knowing that they aren't gone but are always still there inside you keeping you going. Thus the cycle is recreated into a new beginning a rebirth of your lives. The change of passing into forward.
In all of space and time one thing is constant, life finds a way.
