A stunning photo of course with the bright foliage and the thick mist in the background. I'm not a church goer so I have to think about this one. It does feel comfortable here, people are relaxed and visiting and the path to the church door is lined with beautiful calming yellow. The headstones are old, so they are not graves of the recently deceased. The church itself is quaint with the gingerbread border on the front awning.
I didn't think God could have grandchildren because he only has children. He is the creator of all. As I said before, I was given children, they aren't 'mine' like a possession. God sent them to me to care for and raise and to think of them as my 'own', but I didn't create this body I am in, God did and God created my husband's body and together they can sow a child. That child wouldn't have 'life' without a spirit and that spirit is everlasting light that no one can claim.
Have you ever been with someone that has died? I have, my Dad. It was one of the most amazing things I have ever experienced. You truly see/feel light leave the body and for your loved one that was suffering, for a moment feel relief, then the reality that they are physically no longer. No one can teach that or explain it, it has to be experienced. Not all are capable and stay angry/depressed after a loved when passes. I wasn't ready to physically be without my Dad, but I was so blessed to have had him for 26 yrs of my life:) I had reached a brick wall last year and I was washing dishes at the kitchen sink, praying and talking to my Dad as I often do. I looked out the window and in the sky appeared a man's face in the clouds. It was another stepping stone for me.
I hope you don't find my comments a nuisance, if you do please just tell me I won't mind! Thanks, Amy

I like your keen eyesight! :) The headstones are over 100 years old. One had 1876 on it.
My mother died when I was 20 , and my father when I was 36. I remember holding my mother's ashes in my hand, before it was dissolved in the sea, and thinking this is all that is left of her. I remember seeing and talking to my father the previous day, and the next day with his life force having left. I wasn't with them at their time of death. Only the initial realization that I will not be seeing or hearing them anymore brought some sadness, but other than that I was prepared to accept it. Yet thinking about it now, the memories do bring a momentary sadness, which is only natural.
Your comments are not a nuisance at all! I see in them a keen perspective! Deeply appreciate your review Amy! Ramesh :)

We wouldn't be human is we didn't feel sadness. Loss is loss any way you look at it. Even though I believe I communicate with my Dad I still have moments when I am so wanting hug from him or to see him in his chair rubbing his feet together because he is tired. I am so sorry you lost both of your parents so young. I hope you can believe they are still with you at times seeing what an amazing person you have become.
Keep posting, I feel like it is spirtitual homework0:) Amy
