AN EMPTY SEAT

An empty seat where once we may have sat with a loved one, or not.

A time of reflection, a time of love, caring, and support.

It can take the most painful of pain to bring us back to the now.

No amount of ‘what ifs’ will change the past.

A reminder.

Cherish what has been. Live the now. Be thankful for the future.

Losses are a reminder perhaps, of the fragility of life.

I know of so much hurting at the moment, within a group, a tribe, a community. Reach out to one another. There is no right or wrong, merely the feeling inside you. Trust your heart. Hold and be held. Lean and be lent on.

Give yourself time. Be kind to yourself. There is nothing more important than you, and now.

Silences are okay 🙏
