Hello dear you!
Hope you are well.
Just a short update from me. I have been busy and haven’t had time and inspiration to write an inspiring blogpost.
Last weekend my father past away. He had Cancer. I lost both my parents only a few months apart. This feels very strange, empty and sort of ungrounded and hollow. But also free and grateful for having known them, even though our relationship wasn’t always fluffy clouds and unicorns. I believe they taught me a lot and were major catalysts in my spiritual growth. I am grateful that I got to say goodbye to him in person when he traveled to The Netherlands last month. And also that his suffering is over. His health was getting worse by the day so he was quite in a rush to travel back to The Philippines while he could still get on a plane. He has been living there for the past eight years. He was in hospital for a while. I “spoke” to him twice more on the phone and Sundaymorning I received the phone call saying that he had past on. It still came as a shock. Even though I felt the evening before that he would pass. I believe he past Saturday evening, as I really felt his presence at that moment. It’s been very emotional. Also in dealing with all the official handling of declining the heritage. I will spare you the details. But my brother and I have a lot of official hassle coming up, officially declining the heritage. This probably will be costly, but will provide clarity and peace of mind. Or so I hope. But first trying to figure out how to go about this. It is proving quite difficult with Dad living abroad and being married in The Philippines.
Anyway…now a for a more joyful sharing!
I also already planned a few days away with my friend Roy and I didn’t want to cancel and was in real need of some fun and distraction, so really perfect timing. We visited the small city of Assen in a northern province of The Netherlands. We visited the Drents Museum for a beautiful and fascinating Maya exhibition. And we stayed at De Bonte Wever. An all-in resort hotel with a pool, sauna, steam bath, entertainment, and all included food and drink. Just what the doctor ordered; friendship, fun and food. It was nice to be away and to be surrounded by green and tranquility. Back home it was back to work and also straight into figuring out what to do about the inheritance. So I haven’t really had time to grieve. Will unplug this Sunday and be with what is…
Life just goes on and on… I feel I need a time-out. To feel and transmute my emotions. I feel a bit ungrounded and tired, but only one more day of work and on Saturday the inspiring Earth & Beyond Conference. I visit every year and always enjoy it immensely. I also feel strangely okay with everything. I believe and feel all is well and it was my parents time to move on. Lots of souls are moving on in this time. Their work here is over and it is time they serve elsewhere. Also all the paperwork will work out. I have lots of support from family and I am ever so grateful. I feel a stronger connection to my family now and so many people have offered great help in the past months, with my mother dying and now with my father. My heart is warm and I feel love and loved.
