had a death in the family. As always in most cases it was very unexpected...
very important to have ones affairs in order, very confusing for those left behind when it's not..
Hope everyone takes time to consider something we all will pass through...Death, silent friend waiting.. if not for ones self, for others left behind who will have to deal with the process...
Kind regards to all...

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, The rains fall soft upon your fields, And, until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
My sincere condolences. Take care of yourself and be well.

I would recommend O'Donohue's entire poem (by the same name) to you. It's excellent but too long for a video. The quake and tsunami in Japan happened not long after I made this. I hope perhaps this can be of some solace to the people of Japan who've lost loved ones. This is my third piece using the music of Jackson Berkey, of whom I'm a great fan. http://www.berkey.com/
