A letter to a loved one

Although I never met you in the physical
I knew you through your sisters, brother in law, and all of the family I have the pleasure of knowing
Through your family I have learned so much
about life and cherishing every day and moment
and I can only hope to aspire to reach an internal state of tranquility and peace
Many would say that death is the end of life
culturally I believe it can be celebrated and revered

as our final resting place
Many fear death
Others do not
All I can say is though we mourn your departure.
Your journey through life is not over.
Your legacy continues for your loved ones
and others who are touched by your life
and the love that radiates from all of us.
Con mucho cariño para la familia
