Have you ever noticed how some images leave a lasting imprint on your mind, that some images from your early childhood stay with you for ever, and others from yesterday are hard to recall today.
On the way home, after sitting up all night with my mother as she passed on to her reward, I pulled over on the side of the road to watch a glorious sunrise. I could almost hear the angels singing as she was welcomed into heaven.
This is a picture that I am sure will stay with me for the rest of my life. Every time I drive past the spot where I stopped I will be reminded of my mother and all that she taught me, all that she stood for and all that she was. In time the memories of her illness will fade but not the blessings she bestowed on all who considered her a friend, mother, grandmother, mother inlaw. She was an inspiration to many.
In this materialistic world that we live in it is hard to believe that people still live in mud huts. While you may think the picture below is a picture out of a history book or National geographic it is a picture of a small villaga in Ghana. No electricity, no running water, no indoor plumbing, where your bed is the dirt floor and yet everyone I met had a smile on their face. This is another image that will be with me the rest of my life.

Kathy ~ Thank you for sharing. I have witnessed and heard from many like you, the amazing awareness that can surround you following a loved one's passing. I don't think this is coincidence. I love the way you describe her going "on to her reward" How lovely!
