Step Out of Her Way

She needs to go, she is more than ready. She has been in pain for seven weeks. Has not been able to lift her head for two of them. Does not eat, is trying to go into the light. Her relatives are having a difficult time letting her go. They are enraged and outraged; withholding permission. Thinking of themselves, not realizing what a faith she has. She has already partially stepped into heaven. She is more than ready; her pain is abundant. They need to say “I love you", step back and out of her way. Her wings are sprouting.

Pretty selfish of them. Grief effects people differently. Linda
