I saw this on a blog once and it was in my post titled "Is it November Already" in 11/09.

"They say that time in Heaven is compared to the "blink of an eye" for us here on this earth. Sometimes it helps me to think of my son (daughter) running ahead of me through a beautiful field of wildflowers and butterflies. So happy and completely caught up in what he (she) is doing, that by the time he (she) turns around to see if I'm behind her....I will be."

You are very articulate and I love your posts. You speak the truth about what it is like to lose a child. I'm sure anyone who has lost can relate to the feelings that you describe. It does almost feel like a betrayal of love when you no longer feel the pain like you did in the early days of grief.

Who would have thought that we would want to hang on to the pain? God's ways are certainly higher than our ways. 9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9

With Hope,
