BOY: “I miss my Mom who died. Really Bad.”
OLD WOMAN: “Maybe try missing her really well.”
BOY: “How do I do that?”
OLD WOMAN: “See that Sunrise? Sunset? Blue Sky? Forest? See how beautiful the colours are? How clear and clean the air feels? How good it feels inside of you?
BOY: “Yes.”
OLD WOMAN: “Your Mom lives in that. So maybe you can say, “Thanks Mom.” when you see and feel things like that.”
BOY: “I miss my Mom really well now.”

When we feel overwhelmed in loss, or deep change;
Step outside, breathe in and let go of how you think it should be right now.
Be still, open up and see life and death from a different perspective.
In this space we will find peace again.
LIVING IN THIS MOMENT 
Love this, Karen. Presence! ❤
Yes exactly! ✨🥰💚
Changing the way we see…and changing our words makes such a difference in the way we feel. A little nature mixed in always helps. Lovely post, Karen. 🙏🏻
It really does make a difference! Thanks Carrie ✨💕💚
This is so true Karen. I’ve so enjoyed all of your recent posts. But, I always love all your posts. 🙂
Thanks Michele! I appreciate you being here ✨🌈💚
I know, that you are right, even if I feel challenged to see this right now, Karen.
Knowing you feel challenged is a beautiful awareness in you Irene. Keep breathing out what you think must be different to be happy and each day slowly open up and allow what is. Knowing what to do next will arise in the surrender. 🌈💚
I do know why, Karen.
I lost my two old cats last year and now my young dog at 7 years old have aggressive bone cancer. I need to act responsible to this inside very few days and two weeks ago, I thought he was a healthy dog.
Very sad Irene.
Yes, it is.
So true and inspiring story, Karen. I completely agree with your words, everyone who has departed are yet with us in spirit and they have not gone anywhere. Lovely post.
Yes they are definitely still with us 🌈💚💕🙏🏻 Thanks Kamal
Welcome Karen 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌷🌷🌷🌷
I love it, Karen! I have a little bird that visits…I swear it is my father!! And he was here this morning so I wonder what his message is…
Hope you are well…Happy February!
That’s so beautiful Lorrie! They do visit and they do love us deeply! Happy February to you too! 🥰💚💕
Thanks, Karen…he’s been hanging out all day. Makes me think he is trying to communicate something…
Sweet blessings friend😊
Just ask him and listen 💚
😁💜
Awwww…
Yes! Simple but powerful 🌈
So beautiful. Thank you Karen 💕
Thanks Val 😘💚🥰
Been feeling unsettled of late and focusing more on the irritants than the blessings…never a good thing. Thx for bringing my attentions back to where they should be. 😘😘
It’s a practice to focus, but it’s always worth the effort my friend 🥰😘🥰😘
So true and inspiring story.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I couldn’t agree more Karen… I will have to look up Ram Dass. I’m beginning to love his sayings. Lovely.
You will love his work! Thanks Whitney 🦋🙏🏻
A change in terms can change an outlook. This is what parts the clouds and released the healing rays of sunlight.
