Different Funeral Experience

posted in Death, project 365 |

#60 The most unique funeral I have ever been to. The Pagan/Wiccan funeral of Robert’s bio-mom’s partner. His bio-mom died 2 years ago (almost to the day) and her ashes are next to her partner’s at the foot of the table. (Robert is like a brother to us, we were there for him and his family). I watched the kids through much of it, but what I saw was beautiful, just completely different than anything I have experienced.

  • A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone. It doesn’t struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different. And there’s room in the garden for every flower. You didn’t have to struggle to make your face different than anyone else’s on earth. It just is. You are unique because you were created that way. Look at little children in kindergarten. They’re all different without trying to be. As long as they’re unselfconsciously being themselves, they can’t help but shine. It’s only later, when children are taught to compete, to strive to be better than others, that their natural light becomes distorted. — Marianne Williamson
