Each of us, in our lives at some point, suffer the loss of a loved one. It\u2019s never an easy path to walk.\nIt is said, the heart wants what the heart wants. The heart may want what it wants, but it doesn\u2019t always get what it wants. Or, if it does, it can be fleeting.
\nLove is a deep feeling of the heart, not one that can easily be forgotten or released. Over time it may find a comfortable place deep within where it settles into a rhythm of what might have been.
\nSometimes love isn\u2019t lost; it just finds itself taking a detour. Giving the feeling a time to mature or grow or maybe find its way back to what should have been.
\nOther times it seems to come late in life when the noise of the world has settled, and distraction is set aside. Love comes when the time is right.
\nThe heart may want what it wants, but love knows when it\u2019s time for the heart to swell with the passion that brings two souls together.
\nSometimes those souls connect for a moment in time, bringing joy, happiness, peace, contentment, and a deep love that is beyond the space of time.
\nThen it is gone. But is it?
\nNo.
\nIt is that love that stands the test of time. It stands the test of that which is outside of space and time. It is what we call eternity. Love beats deep in the heart right through the soul of eternity.
\nWhen you lose a lover in this life, you should know that in that place outside space and time, the heart still swells with the passion that keeps you and your soulmate together.
\nTonight, I think about a dear friend who recently lost what I believe is what I describe above. I hope you will find comfort in the words that cannot begin to make up or replace the gentle, loving heartbeat of that missing space in this lifetime.
\nI hope you can find peace in your memories.<\/p>\n
