I don't know if a tragedy can be described as "perfect", but it really does seem that when the time came, it came in one of the kindest ways possible. Still, the loss of someone so close to your heart is never something that's easy, even if/when it is (somewhat) expected. It's comforting to know she got back home to the islands, and that this happened late enough in the trip so she was abel (hmmm, may leave that typo ~ it's the name of C's Filipino uncle) to have first shared that precious time with her family there again. I hope your heart is filled with the love she had for you, and that you will carry that with you always.

Much love to you JV, and prayers of peace, love and and fulfillment for your mom.

I'll be thinking of you and your mum in meditation tonight JV. {{}}
