Description:
Here is my page for this months JOURNALING CHALLENGE | ‘Laughter is the Best Medicine.' This is what I wrote about my beautiful Aunt and the gift she sent from heaven.

It was the day of your funeral & your wake. Mum and I were feeling so overwhelmed with emotion we glanced across the room and instantly knew that each other needed to step out of the fray and regroup in the front garden even just for a quick moment. We were missing your dry sense of humour, the kind of wit that not everyone got but we did. It was one part of your amazingness! We were postulating at what you’d make of all this fanfare being bestowed in the memory of you and like a gift from the heavens this happened...

Your neighbour from across the street of which you did not know too well, noticed us and in a friendly neighbourly way he announced…
‘You wouldn’t be caught dead inside, on such a beautiful day like today!’

OH.EM.GEE! (something you’d always say)… in unison mum and I looked at each other then up to the heavens above and knew straight away that you had a hand in this! The immense happiness we felt at that moment could never be quantified, you were still with us right there in your front garden being cheeky & just a little bit naughty too. Thank you Aunty Lol for the joy you brought us everyday & well beyond because even in Heaven you’re still making us laugh. All our love Helen & Em. xox

      @Iowan lol it really was a pause until we both looked at each other and laughed. I’m so grateful to be open to experiences like this, although it wasn’t exactly subtle lol
