One Third of My Light Is Gone

"...And the fourth angel sounded the trumpet, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, so that the third part of them was darkened. And the day did not shine for a third part of it,, and the night in like manner." --Rev. 8:12

I have three sons. One of them is in the spirit world. On October 26, 2009, one third of the light in my life went out forever.

October 26, 2011

Today is the 2nd anniversary of the day we lost our dearest Maris.  It seems as if we have been trying to make sense of it forever.  It is the greatest mystery in the universe.  Losing Maris was without a doubt the worst thing that has ever happened to me.  At the same time, knowing now what we know about him, we are grateful that we had him for as long as we did.  My life now revolves a round atonement.  I owe it to maris to learn how to trust my own heart, to believe in myself, to embrace what is incomprehensible, and to recognize The Truth no matter what form it takes.

Maris sent me this rainbow the other day when I was sorting through some things.

I recognize it as a greeting from Maris, and I am sharing it with you.
