Fear of Loss
A few days ago, I had a shock. Mum collapsed with no warning and although she is OK now it really sent the shivers down my spine. Having lost Dad, somehow I always feel that Mum will go on forever - her family is VERY long living (Her mother is almost 98 and still as strong as ever) - and suddenly I realised that no one lives forever.
It is so easy to start fear losing people and through that fear to start not taking the risk of getting close to
people as you try and protect yourself from hurt. With anything worth having, in this case the love of a human being, there is always risks involved. But do you know, no matter the pain I have had through loss, the joy of having those memories and the love of those people for outweighs the downside. We should never fear loss, loss is part of the circle of life……..
