Blessed Death Death is delightful. Death is dawn, the waking from
a weary night of fevers into truth and light. - Joaquin Miller As my friend Deborah was about to leave for a vacation, her 11-year-old son told her, "Mom, I'm afraid that when you leave, you'll die, and I'll never see you again. " Deborah sat down and talked with him about her vacation, and explained to him that sometimes when we or the people close to us change, it feels like a death. In a way he was correct; his mother was changing her life, and she was going through a symbolic death. She communicated that she loved him and would always be there for him. Her vacation was deeply trans-formative, and she returned feeling more whole and able to reach her son on a new level. While writing my first book, I had the strangest feeling I was going to die. After meditating on the feeling, I realized that what was dying was the old me. I knew that when the book came out, I would have to own the strength, vision, and intimacy for which I was making a stand in my writing. "Then let it die, " I declared, trusting that the me who was being born was far more rewarding than the one that was passing away. Death is not a bad thing; with every death comes a birth. The key to moving beyond the fear or pain of death is to ask, "What is being born in place of what is dying? " When you discover the blessing death brings, you can walk through the valley of the shadow of death and truly fear no evil. Help me find life where I once saw death.
Lead me from the darkness to the light. God is life. I gracefully accept endings, knowing each
completion brings a greater beginning.
