I awoke tonight with a vivid memory of my soul mate of 21 years. She passed away suddenly over three years ago and her memory has haunted me since then. Wonderful memories of a loving and caring woman never leave. They find a place in our heart and soul forever. Moving on from them is a most difficult task we can ever do. Lost friends and family members are very hard to accept but a lost soul mate of so many years is even harder to accept. Why the Universe would take someone away from us is cruel and hard to understand. I remember when my youngest brother died by drowning at 14, my family was devestated, as I was. I was close to him and loved him as my youngest brother. His sudden passing left a void in my heart that I thought would never heal. I remember my father crying publicly at his funeral and his basketball coach sitting next to his coffin in an almost catatonic state for the loss of his star Freshman player.
Lost souls are the extreme of sorrow. Those who experience it are forever scared by the loss. Memories of lost love ones become sealed in the vault of the mind and never fade away only to invade our sleep or our daily lives. I will end tonight’s dialogue with the sentiment of sorrow to all who have lost love ones. It is not wrong to remember them, honor them, or continue to love them but, they all insist that we move on and thank us for our love and rememberance.
