In not wanting to draw parallels to others, and in not wanting to compound the message, I have pondered, for almost two weeks now, as just what to say with a concern to this matter. Although, my focus will be in general, but also descriptive.
With the ever and continual mourning for those who “pass on” before us, this feeling we have and/or the showing of our deepened sadness, should be a following to another’s death. These feeling are more likely true, than false, and are more than compounded, when the tragedy is within our personal, or extended family, which eventually fall to their demise.
Although, in dealing with a passing, we can never look far enough down the road to know it will happen slowly and predictable, or whether it will be quick and unpredictable.
In the soon to follow days of its reality, we will never know the answer to the question of, “Why do some die an untimely death?”
Yes, it is once for man to die, but we want to know why. This is where our system of religious belief falls into place. It is here, and why, we adhere to faith in the Greater Operational Director in whom we are devoted.
As it should always stay in our reflection of though, we should strive to remember that those who do pass on, either prematurely or not, our understanding should be, “We do not own our friends, our mates, nor our children, as they are only put in our lives for a specific time. And in not having the exact and specific tool for measurement, all avenues should be taken to understand that all life is for a short time, in that we can be called away any time.”
It is a commonality of belief that nothing of good can come from such a short life!
Yes? No?
We can draw from either answer as we see fit and can find our own analogy of such. I would submit though, “Again, in knowing life can be short, the adventure of sharing with others in the love of human qualities is extinguished by placement in the grave!”
In the bringing on of, the numerous faces of emotion by death, those that have a real and true love in their heart can find new joy when sorrow passes. In being able to do so, our voices should be lifted up and let the tears flow. After this time passes, it is allowing the new joy to come into our hearts! We have left behind the old, although, our remembrance is still in tact.
In having to remember anything about this article or about death, personal or not, please remember this, “cohesion of love of family,” is the key ingredient. It is a blended family time of having personal hope and faith. It is this inclusive gift o having a tender and loving heart. It is one of understanding when aching presents itself, and one of compassion of humbleness that is given to every human being by the creator of all things.
I would submit to those of tragic loss, to delve deep into one’s own heart to find true comfort, which we seek. It is only here will we reassurance to our distress. In addition, it is the only place within our being where the creator of all things leaves answers to prayer.
As has been said by another, “We cannot begin to understand the riddle of death without the guiding light of God.” Without Him, death will forever remain an unknown phantom.
