The Beauty Denominator

Sometimes it’s really hard to accept things that happen in your life, like the loss of a loved one. Everyone grieves in their own way, but you can’t let it take control. I remember and celebrate the life that my Son had, his energy is always with me and I take comfort in knowing that he is now pain free in body and spirit. I now see his energy back where it began, back with his source.

He had his life to live the way he saw fit and sometimes we did not always agree on the way he chose, but it was always his choice to make. Sometimes we think because we give birth that their life belongs to us. It is only given to us to guide and take care of till they are old enough to make their own choices. We do the best we can and hope for the best for them.

My Son lived for 38 years and from many other Mother’s I have spoken to that was a lot longer than their children. People need support when they go through something like that so it’s always a good idea to find a support group in your area if at all possible or at least a supportive pastor or family member. Accepting and letting go is the only way you will heal.

No one knows what life has in store for them, but learning to accept those things that we can’t change and believing that everything has a purpose even though we don’t understand brings our faith into play. I get through one day at a time and I’m very grateful that I have the opportunity to wake up and remember a life that was so dear to me, Rest In Peace My Eric.
