TOPIC: The Next Adventure

Recently, my mother passed away after living a long and full life. She was ready for this "next adventure" (in her words). Her positive attitude to death has helped me accept her passing, and welcome her step into whatever this next adventure is. She had been on the verge of dying for a number of days; and on one particular day, at dawn, I looked out my window and saw the sparkling Venus so bright in the eastern sky. I thought: Mom, this would be a beautiful morning to go. It turns out that a few hours later I got the call that she had just died. So special.
