I give you this one thought to keep--
I am with you still--I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone--
I am with you still--in each new dawn.

Thank you all so much. I can't begin to describe how much your support has lifted me over the past week. Our family is gathering today, and services begin tomorrow. The blessings of a large family are on full display at times like these - love all around us.
You can call me NIK

I don't have the words to make any of this easier. I wish there were some.
I know you find comfort in the support here, you are so well respected and loved on SI.
I hope the collective hugs, strength and prayers help you during this sad time.
I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom sounded like a wonderful woman.
Prayers through your next few difficult days.

Nic....
Don't mean to threadjack this very important and painful event for you, but I wanted to correct something I wrote in an early post. It wasn't my H that died, but my H's father. Apparently my fingers did not type that crucial word 'father'....

NIK, I am so very sorry for your loss. It's clear your mom was a very special person, not just from what you've said, but also clear by who you are. I wish you and your family strength and pray that your memories of your mom will bring you comfort. Much love to you and yours. <3
