10/15/2019 0 Comments Wave of LightOctober is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month and October 15 is the International PAIL Day of Remembrance. For the past several years I have participated in the Wave of Light, lighting candles in remembrance at 7pm on October 15 for the precious and much-hoped-for little ones gone too soon, held forever in love.
May you know that absence is full of tender presence and that nothing is ever lost or forgotten. May the absences in your life be full of eternal echo. May you sense around you the secret Elsewhere which holds the presences that have left your life. May you be generous in your embrace of loss. May the sore well of grief turn into a well of seamless presence. May you be embraced by God in whom dawn and twilight are one, and may your belonging inhabit its deepest dreams within the shelter of the Great Belonging. - John O'Donohue
