My Life in Seven Words
Even though I have not been doing all the work as diligently as I could, my life has undeniably changed. It’s not just a subtle shift—I feel it deeply, and those around me notice it too.
There’s a kindness within me that hasn´t been there in such a long time that I don´t even remember when I lost it. But now, it is back again… it´s a softness that allows me to be more considerate, more understanding.
I no longer find comfort in criticizing others or questioning when those around me do. Instead, I pause, reflect, and sometimes even challenge the negativity in the air, not with force but with quiet presence.
It is in this mood that I read the obituaries. The ones of the NYT impacted me, writing on average 5 to 8 words to honor someone. After living 80 or more years they only get one word per decade if they´re lucky. To top it off, it´s usually someone relatively well known. In other words, if I was living there, in my old life, where I was a living dead, I wouldn´t make it to the obituaries of the NYT.
I´ve thought about this all day today. I even did a sit about it. It is after this that I realize that as I chip the cement off of my old self, the light that now accompanies me is so bright, that it inspires you to find your own.
It´s not that I´m better than anyone else, it´s just that I am more connected, more at peace, I just know that everything will flow and follow its natural path and it´s OK. I know that I won´t make it to the NYT obituary but mine will read: Gisela Lammerts van Bueren Barrera, BLISS “Billionaire´s Love legacy Inspires Sincere Sharing”. 😉

So sweet Donna, thank you!
That’s a great one line obituary
