We Will Forever Look for Them

No matter how much time passes, we will look for them forever. Our loved ones who have gone before us to Heaven will never be forgotten.

Regardless of the passing days or changing seasons, our search for them will endure, a testament to the depth of our love and the strength of our memories.

They are with us in the supermarket, as we pass through the aisles and see their favorite food, a gentle reminder of their constant presence in our lives.

As we walk through the park and hear another person’s laughter which sounds so much like theirs, our heads turn. We will forever look for them. The sudden rush of emotions, the heartache, and the bittersweet memories, they all come flooding back in these moments.

While strolling the beach searching for shells, a woman walks past me. She wears her hair piled high on the top of her head, just like you did. For just a moment, I think it’s you, and I want to run after her, begging her to stay. Even if I don’t realize it, I am forever looking for you.

I find myself looking up to the sky, searching the clouds, more than I ever did before. Are you up there looking down at me? Possibly. Yet, I believe you are much closer. The veil of Heaven so thin, that you are right here, next to me.

There are days when I look at your children, and there you are! I see you—right there in front of me. You live on within them. I see your smile, hear a giggle, and catch a burst of spunkiness… oh, yes, that same mischievousness you possessed.

One day, we will all be together again. Until that day, we will continue our search, finding solace in the knowledge that our loved ones live on within each one of us.
