My eyes swept through your beautiful prose, and I felt the wise truth and felt the fear of that truth. And of course, the sorrow of how that truth lit inside of you through Raphael.

Nicola, this was so beautifully written! “I was never your mother: we were compatible presences performing a brief, milky dance to the music of the infinite; and our love lives on in that music” - wow. Thank you for sharing. The topic of grief is interesting in terms of relationships. I lost a very close friend last year. Initially I was weeping because he was physically no longer here. It was important for me to shed tears to mark the ending of us relating through the physical form. Over time I realised that we have since started a new relationship - one where he guides from the astral realms. He isn’t really gone, the way he serves has simply changed. In that way, I feel him closer in my heart with each passing day ❤️

Loss is so real that sometimes the skin feels translucent with all the hurt and numb from all the cycles of letting go. The waves never ends, the journey never ends, through life we live the losses again and again and again. As long as we love, we are going to lose, because we are handing over a part of ourselves to someone and telling them, “Here, this is yours. Keep it safe”. And when they go, they take it with them. You miss them and the extension of your self that you lost to them.

I too am learning a thing or two about loss. I can tell you this much that I’m with you in spirit darling friend.
