Goodbye…

“When the heart weeps for what it has lost, the spirit laughs for what it has found.”
— Sufi Aphorism

Time heals most wounds, so they say.

But you never really get over the pain of a loss

And just try to move on:

Taking everything in stride on a daily basis,

Accepting the fact that you will never

Completely understand when, how or why

Things had to happen.

And yet, thankful that despite the loss,

Life goes on.

And delight in the realization that

God does not leave us empty.

That it was necessary to lose the one thing

We thought we couldn’t live without

To gain the very thing that will make life

Worth living.
