Reflecting on any humans life path from birth to death, pondering Was it A Life Lived? Or Did they Live Life? The death of a loved one brings so many layers of thoughts, feelings and All emotions, for A Life Lived is a complex one. You exhaust the tape of their life, with little understanding and compassion to what adversity they truly faced. Yet at deaths door you fully accept them for who they were authentically. Are we now willing to fully embrace and appreciate their Life Lived because they are no longer on earth? they are no longer causing us resistance. Are we now empathetic?
What I do know for sure is we are bonded by being “family” belonging to “our group” and most often we do not allow our members to feel free, to Live Life. To give space to be who they are unapologetically, without criticism, without judgement, without continued resistance. We spend decades never really soaking in what they had to teach us. We are slaves to time and in an instance time has run out, the realization sets in, time has run out with those that truly mattered. Grief is here to teach. If you can see it through you will begin to pivot towards creating a Lived Life. You can clearly see that if we continue to walk the concrete path, Instead of chiseling one out for our own, we see that we are on track to repeat A Life Lived.
