In Memory of Grandpa George

It started around Halloween this feeling creeping in that things were about to change. . . The world as we know it shall and 2016 being that wrapping up year amongst the changes that the Year of the Monkey brings in preparation for the year of the Rooster the beginning of a Nine year cycle.

I guess it makes sense that the series of odd, supernatural things that took place was spirit warning of a death in the family, furthermore Grandpa George was a Gemini Rooster and his been ready to leave this earthly plane for some time. He has lived a long and fruitful life he lived to see World War 2, 1950’s, 1960, 1970’s and the 1980’s. Thinking about all those huge changes and into the millennium, it’s insane to the world has become what it is today. I’m not prophesying a 3rd world war but that level of change will take place.

During the Super Moon in November around the 14th, Strange things kept happening, lights flickering, things being moved, strange dreams and then came the doorbell ringing 3 times in consecutive days - The superstition that if nobody is there that it symbolises a death in the family. The black bird twice crashing into my bedroom window.

I have been saying since October I had a feeling someone was going to pass away, and I guess by November I was certain. I guess people often see me as overly superstitious, a bit more than average on the strange side, and always talking about things that people think are “far out or far fetched”, that it’s not until something like this happens that people take notice.

It’s not to say I told you so, I just wish people would listen to me at least sometimes, I would not of known such things i guess if it wasn’t of importance, I had been telling my mom for 2 months to call Grandad and because life, and busy schedules she never did. Losing a loved one is hard, and there is nothing you can do to change the past what I know for sure is that he is free and probably looking forward to creating havoc in his cheeky chappy mischievous way even in spirit.

I feel all grandad George wants now for the generations he left behind is for his family to come together and to be together. There is a running theme of heart conditions through that side of the family and that to me is symbolism of wounds needing healing.

Living through Death

Death is immensity, the finality of something that ceased to exist… But all because you cannot physically see them, touch them, speak to or hear them it does not mean they are gone.

When a child loses a parent they hold within them a piece of that person, their blood is your blood, you have (hopefully) years of stories and memories and by remembering who they are, by knowing them and that feeling that is felt at the leaving of their body, you know just how lucky you are to have known someone who has impacted your life the way that they have, to feel what you feel is love and that is more than anyone can ever ask for.

It’s my belief that nothing dies it simply changes forms. . . And by remembering they live on through you. Spirit is with us we are energy and yes you may not be able to physically speak to them, see them in the physical form but they are with you, surrounding you, guiding you, so pay attention, remember them and be wowed at how life has a way of showing you they are walking right along beside you.

Death is immensity, it’s all consuming but when things have run their course the only step is change, try not to be selfish in wanting to hold onto someone/something when it’s their time, they have the right to transition to what's next for them - I know that it feels unfair, it feels a lot like abandonment, and believe me I know a lot about abandonment, but you never lose them, they have and are a part of who you are, be allowing for them and live on in memory of them.

You should always live for you and not for everyone else. Yes it’s true some people are taken far too young, to early, too soon, but there is never a right or perfect time for change, it simply is and it happens - but I am a fond believer that the universe never gives us anything that we cannot handle, even when we feel like we cannot, we do, it's a test of strength of courage and it leaves its mark with us/on us in helping us become who we want to be.

Death is not the end it is just a new beginning.

Be a lighthouse! Shine even in the darkest of nights and you will find your way.
