Portfolio of Hope

When someone passes away,

you should not say that you have ‘lost’ that person,

because,

you haven’t.

For,

to ‘lose’ someone means that you don’t know where they have gone,

that you can’t find them.

When someone passes away,

however,

they are not ‘lost’,

as,

they have not ‘gone’

anywhere.

The fact is that,

wherever you are,

so too

are they

They are in the waves of the ocean,

the rays of the sun,

the gusts of the wind,

they are there-

everywhere

too.

Not ‘lost’,

not ‘gone’,

but an ever-present force-

a force that is with you,

always

and forever.

So,

take comfort in this-

take comfort in the knowledge that,

death is not the end,

not really,

for,

love goes on-

to eternity

and beyond-

love

goes

on.
