I would love to have come over Ken but unfortunately we're looking after the Grandkids for my son all day.

Be thinking about you though - sure it will go well

[BoroRedKen]

No problem fella.

I will be thinking of you Ken. I'd loved to have come and met some of the lads but I'll be away mate.

Wish you well on that day Ken, and hope everything goes well, and Carmen gets a good send off. Unfortunately, I will be in Burnley on that day with work pal and we are on a set timeframe. I'll be thinking of you though. x

"DON'T DIE WITH YOUR DEAD.

Did you know that when you cry for your dead, you cry for you and not them?

You cry because you "lost them", because you don't HAVE THEM by your side. You think it all ends in death. And you think they are NOT there anymore.

So if you're dead no more, where are they?

Yes they have left, or they are now somewhere else, is that place better than this?

Yes, definitely that place is better than this; so Why do you suffer for their departure?

When you have finished accepting that they are no longer "NOT here", but they are still in another place even better than this, for they're where they are no longer sick, or suffering.

Then you'll stop mourning them and you'll get them back in memory so they keep accompanying you with the joy of all that you've lived.

If you truly loved them LOVE them AGAIN and this time with greater strength, with greater purity, with greater delivery.

Today, there will be no more reproach of any kind.

Only LOVE, will be the essence between you, between us, between them.

I respect your pain, and the way you express it. I know you cry and you will cry without comfort.

But .. Today I say to you:
Don't die with your dead.

Remember we are only seeing one side of the coin (death).

We are not looking the other way; we are not seeing the wonderful place of light where they stand.

What if we start seeing "death" as a Second Birth?

Second Birth we ALL will go through.

Don't die with your dead, honor them by living your life as they would have wanted you to. Let them transcend. And you keep living."
