Not An Ordinary Day! "Fifty Word Story" Return To The Place Of God!

in fiftywords •  7 years ago  (edited)

Last night I read such moving, quite intense #fiftywords story, touching me deeply.

I had to let my hidden feelings go, thought that I should at least try to search for words as well.

>HERE you find the rules and contest info by @jayna

I realized at that moment, that I actually never really took enough time to mourn.

I couldn't sleep, restless until 4 am, after reading @lucylin The sound of silence...

I was tremendously shaken and thought sadly about missing my mother-in law’s cremation ceremony.

Amor Ring Achintya!

Return to the place of God!

Here is my entry and I hope that I do well for a first try, to express my sorrow & sentiments.

50 Words + 3

Banana trees were hugging the waking sun-rays.
Flowers blooming.
Sweet Cempaka’s smell in the air.

It was an early morning.

Time to give “Thanks” at the ancestors temple.
Gods & Goddesses would be pleased.

But there was nobody to greet them.

This time she did not come out of the room.

We never know what may suddenly help us to experience grief, and allow us to mourn the loss of our loved ones. I’m very sorry for your loss.

It hit me hard in some strange ways but I lost so many of my pets and was able to grief but somehow I pushed Nenek’s ( We called her Grandma ) death aside. I feel guilty that I missed her cremation ceremony .....I broke up with her son after 16 years, shortly before, left for my home town.

Thanks for the hint, the correct spelling of “mourning”.
I had to edit this post a few times because my emotions drifted away, staying unfocused.
Nice to meet you and your lovley contest.

That is a sad thing about break ups. You break up with the whole family. Well I’m glad you had a chance to grieve. Even though it’s painful, it is usually healing.

One step further ......🧡

Jangan bersedih @mammasitta, setiap yang bernyawa pasti juga akan mati. kita juga yang masih hidup nantinya pasti juga akan di panggil tuha. percayalah langkah, rezeki, pertemuan, dan mati sudah di atur oleh maha pencipta. kita yang hidup hanya bisa mendoakan kepada orang sudah mati untuk tetap baik-baik disana.

Do not grieve @mammasitta, every soul will also die. we also are still alive will also be in the call tuha. believe me step, sustenance, meeting, and death has been set by the creator. we who live can only pray for the dead to remain well there.

kata-kata indah anda, sangat bijaksana dan kuat!

Semoga bisa bermanfaat, hal yang baik di ambil dan hal yang buruk di buang, semoga hari esok lebih indah daripada hari ini. Buat @mammasitta tetaplah bijaksana dan kuat untuk menyongsong massa depan.

May her soul rest in perfect peace.

I wish she does rest with a smile on her face!

It must've been a pretty good story to read it .
thank you .

Good story? Really? What did it say?

God keeps her rest soul in paradise....Amen

Matur suksama!

I am sure Nenek is in peace.....

Dear Mamasita, we must all go like this. Do not worry, we will definitely see those we love, when the time comes. The story that you wrote is very valuable, 50 words + 3 is enough.

🙏

Let's stop being sad. Let's look at the positive aspects of our life. Those who are no longer with us will not approve of our despondency.

You got a valid point! Nothing to be sad about much longer! Our lives go on.....

You must end your sadness! @trumpman came up with a challenge, you too must join.

The second photo from above is very familiar with where I live... I remember it. May nenek get a decent, peaceful place on her...

I forgot where are you from?
Nenek’s children took well care of her departure to be able to be IN PEACE!
That’s what cremations are for

such an heart touching story.why the people are just commenting with out reading blog posts.this really hurts.need to be flagged definetly.

It’s ok but it made me really sad because it was a very emotional moment to even write this.
Thank you!!! 💜

Forgive yourself if you can. It sounds like you were experiencing a very turbulent time in your life when her death occurred.

I'm sure she knew how much you cared for her since it is obvious from this post. I hope that you are able to make peace with this through this writing exercise.

I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.

Hugs and love your way. 🌱

How did you know that I needed that hug the most ....right now 🌸

Here is another one🌷 I wish you so much peace in your heart🌱

I can touch peace but can’t find a part of my heart. It’s hiding once again 🐝

Im very sorry of your mother-in law may her rest in peace . @mammsitta actually you are very kind hearted so you think deeply . Please dont think to much just rest. Very sad post.

life changes in a matter of seconds we don't know what's gonna happen next

Really feeling sorry, praying for the rest in peace for soul. This is really emotional post. Wishing you an great day. Stay blessed.

I finally took time to face my sadness and also guilt that I couldn’t join her departure, her important “celebration”......her cremation ceremony

Don't worry, just close your eyes and remember her and say what you want to say, it will help you to lessen your burden. Stay blessed.

This is so touching, your fifty word story sense makes sense to me @mammassitta
I do hope she finds her rightful place with God, may her soul rest on.

I am sure that she is together with her husband, she lost way too early and smiles down to all of us.

Soulful and thoughtful... thanks for this story of insight x

Matur suksama!
Just simple words of appreciation for the blockchain ( forever)

:'(

I had those “moments” last night .....BTW I couldn’t reply on your other comment because I muted at least 5 members today because, I just don’t want to see those senseless blah blah replies anymore.

@mammasitta Thank you for taking your most important step ma'am. Hopefully, if you take such a step, there will be no such senseless comments later. Madam: You should flag this for all the senseless comments.

Muting is not fun at all, same for flagging but comments should be at least related to the article and words in my opinion.

Never mind :) btw I think the word "Madam" by tetas08 is more offending than that comment above as a whole

Living abroad so many years I do understand the meaning of the use of those words. It’s actually highly respectful ( usually) I am feeling a bit confused as well but try to hope I am right, what it means.

Dear mammasitta. Very beautiful and emotional 50 words, a big hug from a distance.

50 + 3

Sorry Dear.

Yes. This is existence itself.

Joy and sorrow. Calm and storm. Walking and running.

Life and death.

This is existence itself, and it does not wait for anyone. It keeps moving.

There is always another day. There is always another wish and another memory.

R.I.P.

I am sure she does! Thank you Toshi

Awww. Such a sweet looking mum. @mammasita I feel your loss. My heart felt condolences to your family. Send across my best wishes . Sorry for your loss

That’s very kind of you! It feels good to share to minimize the sadness about her loss.

Sure. And since you have so many huge family here who loves our dear mamasita, you are already fine.💪

that's very heartbreaking may her soul rest in peace

I am sure she smiles in peace. She was always kind!

that's a very big loss :( i know the feeling of losing someone close to our heart

I am thankful that at least I had to chance to say good bye but at that time I did not know I would never see her again.

may her soul rest in peace :(

Her soul is in peace because her cremation ceremony helped to leave.

I am sorry but you deserve a flag and I never do this but to comment with “wow good news” is rude because it shows you did not read my story. I am very sad

There is nothing else you have to say after reading, for me this very emotional story? I am truly sad but you have to learn what it means to be a valuable member in steemit

Thanks @sciencevienna for this well deserved flag!
How can they react in such way?
For sure didn’t read anything

Yes that's the difference with steemit: It takes emotional intelligence into account, too! It's not enough to say that there are nice pictures or "wow you have so many followers, now you mean something to me". The meaning is hidden in between lines, that's steemit and reading (just commenting in manner of an indifferent nod) will never be enough here
