Well it has been 1 week since we received news about Lou. What a crazy week, mainly a blur, and still a small part of me that doesn't really believe what as happened.
Today there was a beautiful tree planting ceremony, tomorrow, with the Rising of the Full Moon will be a memorial celebration at a sacred place for Lou, with all of her friends in Newcastle. To follow on Thursday, a Funeral with her Family in Sydney.
I have been surrounded by Lou all week, in amazing beautiful photos of her, ones I've found and others people have given to me. I know many people have loved seeing her here, and i really am so glad they have been able to. I would like to share another photo of Beautiful Lou with you..
Thank you Tracey for this photoAn excerpt from, On Death
The Prophet, by Kahlil Gibran
The Prophet, by Kahlil Gibran
For what is it to die but to stand naked
in the wind and to melt into the sun?
And what is it to cease breathing,
but to free the breath from its restless tides,
that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?
Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountain top,
then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs,
then shall you truly dance.

And when the earth shall claim your limbs,

I would like to also send my love to Lou's Family and friends, please know i am thinking of you in this time, and am sorry I cannot join you in Celebrating Lou's life this week. Take Care of yourself and others.. Lee x
