On Sunday, an ambulance and fire truck arrived next door. We waited inside the garage trying to decide if we should check on him or not. Our thoughts began to whirl: Will it be an intrusion of his privacy? Do they want to be left alone? It is not our business. As we looked from the windows we saw his adult daughter and son arrive.
What I find interesting, was our hesitation to take action. We have lived next to this person for over 11 years. We love this beautiful soul - kind, caring, loving and a wonderful father. Finally, I told my husband that I was going to talk to our neighbor's daughter. As I approached I said, "Instead of watching from the garage, I wanted to come give you a hug." With that she began to cry and I just hugged her. As the ambulance headed for the hospital, she took my number and said she would call.
As I returned home, my son asked if he was going to be alright. I said to him, "If his soul wants to continue he will begin the process of regaining his health, if his soul is done and wants to move on, he will transition (die).
Last night she called to let us know our neighbor, her father had transitioned.
With joy that this beautiful soul has returned to the One Life, yet in sadness for the person I will miss, I am grateful for meeting the One Presence manifested as our neighbor.
