Here’s to a beautiful love and shared grief of the Day of the Dead/ Dia de Los Muertes. In so many ways we can tend to hold our grief in locked areas in our heart instead of wearing it as a badge of beloved testimony of our love. The idea of creating a heart safe place in your home, church, workplace, and digitally is a gift. In 2023 we have many way to do this remembrance. For me, the gathering and putting together is a grace-filled mission for my own testimony. Thank you visiting her ofrenda and loving us. We all need to carry on and on with our love.
This one is in my classroom.
The following are at St. Andrew’s.
Such a lovely opportunity. Many people on our church family worked together to make this a momentous time to share our love, grief , and stories of our loved ones. There are grace filled with hope and love. May we all reach out to our beloveds and carry on the conversation and the love. Love doesn't leave with their body, it stays with us. May we all know we are loved on both sides of the veil.
I have to admit that from October 3- November 3 have been days with a pained heart. I am trying to move on and let myself heal, but it’s not easy. Also, it’s important to not move too fast. I have also begun the work to approved for a mortgage so that I can have a home of my own.
As I continue to grieve in a myriad of ways, I am truly loved and supported by church and school families. I am so blessed.
