 The Weight of Unspoken Goodbyes

 

there's a weight to unspoken goodbyes

they lay heavy on the heart

and bring up a multitude

of what if and whys

 

treat every person as if it will be

the last time you speak to them

just in case it might be

have no regrets added to grief

 

death doesn't always, even seldom

announce his imminent entrance

on the stage of our lives

he is insidiously silent

 

you will be thankful you were kind

not spewing accusations

or raising your voice

at last contact

 

death will not serve you a notice

or leave his calling card

so be kind even when

you must be forthright

 

then when the weight of no goodbye

falls heavy around your soul

you will know kindness lived

in the last words shared

Death is no stranger to any of us nor our families, but death was defeated at the cross, by our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus! Now we can look at life everlasting with God and Christ Jesus! Kindness and
forgiveness is the doorway to heaven. I hope to see you there, thank you, LaBelle, for your wisdom, understanding and love!

I don't get angry with people anymore. Never really did. I do rage against the machine sometimes. But the real people on the other end of the telephone or computer are trying their best under trying circumstances. And when I'm asked to evaluate them when it's really the system that is failing, I give them high marks for their honest attempt to help me struggling with getting just basic things done.

You made me think of my uncle I missed on my last pass by his home in Kentucky after his wife died. I miss calculated and it got too late for me to go back. I could hear him crying on the phone and I felt really bad.

But during his whole life he never went out of his way to see me like I did to see him when he retired at that Kentucky retreat. He died without my even knowing it except finding out through a cousin.
