    (March 18, 2020)

    photo_martaadelsman2x216I have recently walked with a friend through her transition out of this life. 

    If you have never had the opportunity to be with a person in his or her dying process, I highly recommend it. It’s not easy, yet as they exit, dying people give us many gifts. 

    One gift I received, as I spent time with my friend, put me face-to-face with the concept of “dying before we die.” To me, that means to unhook now from attachments to aspects I have equated with this person called Marta: her material possessions, her body, feelings, and personality. 

    These I see as part of our human existence, which of course is the part that dies. Spiritual teachers tell us the True Self does not deteriorate or die. They encourage us to let go of human attachments now. I see how doing so can ease our souls’ transition when the moment comes; because we won’t have to struggle with letting go then. 

    Another gift came from my mother, who passed in 1985. She had been diagnosed with lung cancer, and we had set up a hospital bed for her in our home. I had the privilege of spending an intense two weeks with her at the end of her life.

    The day after my mother died, I turned to my husband and heard myself say something that surprised me: “Well, if my mother can live through dying, then so can I!” 

    The incredible gift my mother (and my friend) gave me as they passed? I lost a lot of my fear of death.

    The Bloody Machine
    By Tommy Acosta
    What is a life anyway? A single “life?” Is it nothing more than a collection of emotions and thoughts, reverberating pain and pleasure, hopes, dreams and fear? Are we merely meat; flesh and blood creations encapsulating what we believe is a soul? Or is a single life the microcosm and macrocosm of human life on earth, each one of us a unique representation of who we believe we are and the whole of humanity at once? We are born. We grow old. We die. Everything we experience is but a dream between those two points. Or are we manifestations of a Divine Creator, every one of us complete in the image that we were made? So, we are told.
