This resonates deeply with me. This past year has been my first experience of personal grief and loss, with a total of 6 loved ones transitioning into the next life. I learned in the ways which my spirit supports my ego during grief, the importance of allowing all the emotions to be witnessed as they arise, and when I look back on those relationships I see how unconditionally loved I was and how I chose to unconditionally love them back. I was found with the awareness that i am here to love and be love, and in experiences when my heart may want to close, it's actually an opportunity to keep it wide open. Death is a beautiful teacher, and I feel grateful for knowing these teachers of love in the flesh and now having the opportunity to communicate and be visited by them on a deeper level of the Divine. Gratitude for being a witness to your sharing of vulnerability and teachings 🙏🏽
Thank-you Echo. So deeply appreciate everything you shared here. I turn 50 in a few days, and have really been feeling the need to get quiet, alone and make space to reflect and envision. Death and dying is, and has been so very present with me the last few months, with the loss of a lifelong friend, and a parent who each day, one doesn't know whether they may be staying or departing. As hard as it is, it has been a daily, and moment to moment invitation to be with life and the ever and always nearness of death and dying. It is in the presence of death and dying, that we are often the most intimate with life.

I would recommend buying Stephan Levines book One Year To Live. It has been such a powerful ally to me.
