Interesting. I clicked on this post the day we buried my mum. It was a pleasant funeral, as pleasant as these things can be.
Death after a life is of course natural.
I like the idea of the tribes people outlined here. They are following their beliefs.
Many in the west have lost the concept of belief.
So sorry to hear about your Mom’s departure to the other side of the rainbow bridge where we all might meet again. I have learnt a lot in Indonesia and death became a different “feeling”. I am back in the West and face those old so-called western fears, looking at my old Mama. It’s different here the way how we say “ Good bye”. I could write so much more now but I rather let it be.

I know, and thank you. We are very lucky that we have seen other ways of dealing with this transition.
I just happened to find ( maybe by coincidence) this article and thought you might be interested to read this as well.
Oh well, I actually don’t really believe in coincidence

Thank you @mammasitta it is an interesting read. I don't believe in coincidence either. :)
I may try writing about my own experience.
Good idea! I wrote a little emotional blue moon rant today :)
