Sorrow
Pain
Disbelief
Pools of water or
Hot tears of happiness they are both the same.
To cry is to forgive and let go of anger,
But ‘tis never to forget
Cry, cry, cry
Memories and feelings of pain.
To feel what it could be to truly forgive.
Evaporate the tears ’till all is gone,
But the seed of life to plant and watch grow
The sprouts grow faster with love and care.
Heaven they call
“Come to let us greet you”
And reach toward the
angels and pray for forgiveness.
Everyday after preach what you learn from embracing the story that is the life of a loved one.
Bouncing back two marbles collide over water to skid back and sink
A bit closer each year from help with the tide and fish.
Till once again together rise up on each other.
Become a ladder to get away from emptiness and pain.
Always a scar on your heart.
Gradually repair.
Turn the bolt to the right, away from wrong.
Until the car is brand new and ready to use to drive away to the sunset and past.
Cross the ocean away to the happy place.
Hug your home
Love mankind or be sent away.
Make a mistake; it’s ok; everyone can forgive. Forgive me please, these
words on the paper mean everything when said, but nothing without
emotion.
No meaning at all to someone with a heart that can’t forgive.
The arrow pierces the center, sucking out all poison in the world.
Happy and free, these words they must
be to retire from the world’s cool, soft lips.
Mother Nature take over, heal the world from sorrow and pain.
Show us forgiveness, you are our teacher, our friend, and our home.
Save us from ourselves, from drowning in violence, from drowning from anger and pain.
But if we must go, let everyone know we are sorry for the pain, so forgive
while you can and know you can change to feel the way you want. To feel
pure, holy, and clean never give up; your family loves you. Your family
is the world and all the people on it.

What beautiful and powerful picture musings.
The terrible, abrupt tragedy you had is not something I have experienced. My losses and tragedies are perhaps the life balance for the gifts and joys I have received and keep receiving. Forgiveness resonates for me because I have learned that giving "forgiveness" and giving "thank yous" is something I can give myself. The giving away makes room for light to fill in my spirit.
I see in my own life and in the lives of all those I know or know about that the imprints we get in the first years of our lives become an integral part of the motor that drives the rest of our lives. The last lines, "your family loves you. Your family is the world and all the people on it." - that part I have not yet been able to fully experience. I can love freely and it is the greatest part of my life and I can feel loved by Creation when I see the colors of sunrise and sunset, the movement and beauty in cloud formations, the amazing structure in trees and the intricate forms of their bark patterns and root systems, the noise and smell and beauty of the pounding surf and a million other natural wonders. All these things seem like personal gifts for me but to actually feel loved by another human being still eludes me. I have frequently felt needed or wanted but those are emotions that are about the life and spirit of the other human being - no, to feel just loved for nothing other than being the imperfect me is an experience I still hope to achieve. What worries me is that it might be there, but I haven't recognized it and I don't have the tools yet to receive it because I didn't learn it as a child and so maybe my "motor" isn't ready for that high octane fuel. I still have hope though, that I can somehow learn how to convert my motor to the renewable energy source.”
Thank you for sharing with the world the gifts of the wisdom you have achieved. I deeply appreciate my opportunity to connect with some of the steps in your life journey.
