Being is Enough
I do not always know what to say. I do not always know what to do.
For example, I am always at a loss for words (if you can imagine) at funerals. Most people do not view death as I do, and I have no desire to teach at that painful moment, so I usually have nothing to say.
Most of what is said at funerals, feels trite and redundant to me, so I do not repeat the over used, “I am sorry. He’s in a better place now. At least he is at peace now. He is with God now.” And the list goes on.
I do usually say something like, “If there is anything I can do for you now or in the future, please call on me.” Even that seems over used. Although I truly mean it, the recipient has heard it all before.
What I usually settle on is, “I Love You!”
It probably does not need to be said, but it comes from my heart and I try to honor what I hear there.
Mostly, I do not try to do anything. I concentrate on Being the Love that I Am. I know that Love is what will heal the pain. Love is where the strength will come from to survive the hurt and sensation of loss.
Being Love is always available for me. In situations where I do not know what to do, I can always choose to Be Love. Actually, I try to make that choice even if there is an action I know I need to take.
Sometimes, action is simply not an option. Loving always works.
Sometimes words simply feel too empty. Being Love is always Enough.
