The Heavens

Today I lost a family member. Well I didn't really loose him, I believe I know where he is. Lost is such a wierd word to use for death. Death, is so final...you're here, than gone, forever. Maybe passing is a better word. Passing from one world to another. Leaving earth, going to eternity. The spirit leaving the earthly body to move on. Everyone has their own beliefs, these are mine.

After hearing the news of his passing, I knew today I wanted to dedicate my blip to him . I wasn't sure what photo to use but I knew eventually something would come to me. As I was sitting in my yard this afternoon reflecting on the memories I have of him I looked up at the sky. As I was looking up I saw theses two beautiful flowing clouds. It looked to me like two angels, one larger one and a small one. I like to think that maybe they may of been the ones who escorted him into Heaven. I like that thought.

My uncle lost his battle with cancer. He has been suffering for awhile but his wishes were to not let others know. I just found out two days ago from my cousin that he wasn't doing well and had a week to two weeks to live but closer to a week. Today, at five in the morning he was taken home.

I love my cousins words, "He lived a very full life" and that he did.

Friends lost a good friend...
I lost an uncle...
My dad lost his brother...
My cousins children lost their grandpop...
My cousins lost their dad, they also lost their mom this same year...My thoughts are with them.

...I love you Uncle Ed, you did live life to the fullest...hanging on to the memories
