Believer

 Herself speaks.

I understand why people believe in an afterlife. 

What a beautiful idea: someday, we will once more be in the presence of those we have loved and those who have loved us, without pain, all made whole and perfect. To forgive and to be forgiven for imperfections and failings. To know that everyone already knows the things that we wanted them to know but left unsaid, either out of fear or misunderstanding, or because there were not words or actions sufficient to convey meaning. To be able to love fully and without hesitation. And to be loved unquestioningly. 

What glory that would be. And what peace.

I wish I could believe. 

Perhaps someday, the Universe will send me a sign. 

I like to hope so.
