1989-1989 A Life In That Dash

Posted on Jan 15th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
1989-1989...
Yes, there was a life lived in that dash. I honor that Life lived Today.
My firstborn daughter's Life is in that dash. 8 months. Today is her Birth Day. She'd be 19.
This song "Love Will Lead You Back"...I will always dedicate to her, will always remind me of her, it always makes me tear up...and I will Always remember and honor her. (I soo thank Taylor Dayne for this song, for the words, for the emotional outlet she's given me thru singing and hearing this song)

Taylor Dayne - Love Will Lead You Back

This song "Tears in Heaven"  (Eric Clapton sang/wrote this song about his son who passed) was dedicated to her and I on the radio numerous times from relatives and friends, so I will memorialize her with that one here too. Music is magic. It is healing...

Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven

Death has touched my life and experience here on Earth in so many ways. (as does its counterpart Life)...Death of a parent...Death of a child...Death of a beloved pet...even the Death of MySelf.
No, your child is not supposed to pass on before you do, are they? But it happens. In a flash it can happen. Cherish their Lives...

I spent 8 months in fascination, in utter awe of her. She was soooo smart! Soooo sweet!
At a few weeks old, she unscrewed (yes, she did...I saw those little hands working!) all the little wooden pieces in her rocking cradle till she rolled out and into a shelf next to it.

I laughed when she went for her first shots and didn't let out a peep, but turned around to shoot the evil eye glare at the doctor who gave it to her. Such a glare that the doctor tried to reason with a 3 month old and explain it to her.

My heart nearly leapt out of my chest with pride when I saw her doing the hand motions for a spanish nursery rhyme her grandmother would sing to her. She learned soooo fast.

I cheered her on when she attempted her first steps one night, when...for no apparent reason my entire family showed up for a visit. She "cruised around" the living room to each person and laid a gentle hand on them all...She impressed everyone...

By that next morning, she had passed on, gone back Home into the arms of God. Did her Spirit call everyone so she could say goodbye? My 5 yr. old nephew told me an Angel came to him that night.

My daughter now, who's 4, "dances" with some unseen Spirit, with her arms open and face upturned. I'm pretty sure its her...come to dance with her baby sister.
My Angel, I know you're watching over us. Mommy Loves You.
Beautiful

Bless you, my friend, for what you have endured and  for all that you share with the world.  Our souls–all souls–are eternally connected in the Great  Soul, so we never are truly apart from one another.  Your little angel is with you always and remains a blessing and inspiration to all she touched in this realm.

Thank You Kat and Will…
Yes, I know our Spirit family…The Great Soul is all around us…and within us.
An experience like this sensitizes you to that awareness and knowledge.

Thank You, from my Heart…
And a bit more insight as to where my compassion comes from…
The Light shines through a broken Heart.

Such tragedy in our young lives, huh? Feel like I've lived many Lifetimes in just this one.
(but this is what I asked for! I said, “Give me Everything!” when we all signed on for the Earth School)
Sweetness and Sorrow…Joy and Pain…it's All Here.
I Thank You deeply for your Love =)

how beautifully you speak of her - and how proud she must be of you as her mother. She was blessed to be given a mother like you - one who could love her with her whole heart and could be aware of her beauty and innate spirit.

Your other daughter here on Earth is blessed, too - and I have no doubt that she IS dancing with her big sis -

Much love,

Tara

Thank You =)
This is why I talk about it today…Counting Life's Blessings. This is what I focus on. What I have learned and gained from my time with her…and all those who have passed on.
Truly I have learned Lifetimes of Lessons from those 8 months.

Yes, my other daughter, Maya is definitely dancing with her (maybe my dad sometimes too, LOL)…she never looks up for anything! But late at night…she lifts her arms and her face…and hums and “sings” and sways =)
(no, it's not scary!!! stop thinking of Poltergeist! lol! It's sweet and affirming of Oneness)

Meaningful words. Plenty of emotion. Thank You.

Thank You, Ayla. Thank You for shedding cleansing and healing tears for her…and me. How many tears have fallen while I wrote this post…trying to condense all the small Blessings and Gifts she has given me…
Wanting to convey the Magnificence of a Life lived sooo very fully that she could take her 8 months of life as a complete one and head back Home into the Heart of Oneness…
Each and every life here is so Special- so Beloved…no matter the timeframe.

What was her name?  I had a baby brother born after me.  He died at 9 months.
Infinite light be with you…we shall honor them together.

Oh Ariela….so sad…your story brought forth tears…for your loss and for your courage…and also for your wisdom in seeing that we are here to experience it all….”Sweetness and sorrow….joy and pain…”

I too lost a baby daughter.  She lived for three minutes.  But her death…somehow gave new birth to me…

Sending you a warm hug…

So beautiful. Thank you very much. Your post deeply touched me. I believe she “dances” with your daughter now, and watches over you.

Thank you, for letting us be a part of this day, with you. You were blessed with a beautiful spirited daughter. Your daughter was blessed to have chosen such a loving mother.
“Love will lead you back” ….yes, it shall.
Peace be with you.

love and peace to you, dear one…
there are those spirits so advanced that it does not take an extended time in form to learn/experience all they need. Sometimes one comes back just for “one more breath.” Sometimes one is so pure the physical form cannot contain them for very long. It does not, however, mean that their 'life' here is over.
  Sounds like your daughter was just smart enough to realize “I don't need this hindering form to have a life here…..”
  Thank you for sharing, Ariela….

I somehow came across your post and it touched me so deeply, you wrote so beautifully that I felt I somehow knew her. What a beautiful soul she is, what an amazing mamma you are! I feel honoured that you shared this here. Thank you so much, really, thank you.

oh gawwwwd, I'm crying again over this…but I like what I've done in her memory =)

And during our switchover to Gaia, I missed seeing all these wonderful comments! But I'm here, I see, I feel…Thank You All! ~Group Hug!!!~

Can you imagine how I feel having another daughter? So Blessed ;-) It's a Girl Thing =)

This morning I'm realizing that we're all saying goodbye…to someone, to 2007, to Zaadz, to a home…feeling a little sentimental ;-) Aren't you supposed to in January? When you can reallllly feel the Newness of a New Year and New Energy as to that 9 year in 2007?
Mmm…High Hopes for this year!!!

C.G! “Sounds like your daughter was just smart enough to realize “I don't need this hindering form to have a life here…..”
I love that!!! Yes!!! So much like this Capricorn x7 little girl.

There's a myth surrounding the idea that it rains when someone innocent dies…
Well, it was a bright blue sunny morning…and a gentle rainbow-y sunshower fell as we gathered at the gravesite.
To find and see Beauty…even in the midst of Death.

~lingering around to again hug Liza and Amy~  ;-)

God bless you and your beautiful angels – the one in heaven and the one here on earth. I just happened to be listening to a random song while reading your post. I couldn't help but cry. It was City and Colour's – ”Hello, I'm in Delaware.”

Light and Love,

Mathew

Matthew! Thank You soooo much for linking that song…yes, made me cry too. Good outlet for pure tears ;-)

C.C and Carla…Thank You Wombn (c'mon you gals know that true lineage and heritage comes through the matriarch =))…Carla, that's why I have 2 sons between them! If Maya didn't turn out to be a girl, that would've been it. No more trying. So, thank Goddess I have been Blessed to be a mom to a little girl! Thank Heaven for Little Girls!

Sawinder, LOL…don't remind me, hahaha…It's only when I think of the age of my children that I start feeling “old”…ehhh…well…Just that I have quite a few lifetimes chocked into this one ;-) Thank You for your presence.

Thank You ALL for your continued LOVE.
I sooo Appreciate it.
Thank You so much for honoring this Little Precious Soul with your awareness.
