There are a thousand different deaths
at the end of every breath -

Which one is ours?

This is my eulogy:

I am one who has loved you deeply.

I draw a new breath.

And take my chances.

This sounds so deep of nostalgy, yet so
filled with a big love, like a calling from
the depth of the spirit.
I listen to this breath, it whispers love.
Greetings Eric, intense words,
Etain.

(big hugggsssss) Oh Eric, I feel no matter what we are risking through each breath but surely there is no more beautiful risk than to breathe in standing up for love! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Death as transformation, with each new breath new chances can be taken ...
there is a mysterious depth to your eulogy ... the past tense holds some sadness but the affirmation stands on its own eternally ...
You sail through secretive waters ... and as usually you sail beautifully.
Love, Margherita
