Dam.....
"Today our friend Lumi (Max) passed into the next life at 0947 AM Mountain Standard Time. He had an easy passing at the end. I got a call from the hospital at about 6am that he was near the end of this life. I got there and had them give him plenty of Dilaudid to ease his breathing and then climbed up in the bed with him and held him until he was gone. I will miss him terribly. My heart is broken. He was bigger than life in everything he did. I loved him always and know how very much he loved me, as well. We always felt at ease with each other...I have known him for many lifetimes and will know him again in the next ones to come. He was my best friend, my lover, my companion and my biggest supporter. His intelligence was amazing and his compassion for others even greater. He never met a stranger. Just know that he truly cared about and loved each and every one of you and that he would want you to go on and find "The Cure" for other people's suffering. He could just never get there...the physical exertion of the grow left him so depleted that he could never get to the point of making his cure. But now he is whole and well and pain free at last. How very fitting that he passed as the Earth moved into the equinox.
I opened this in my email this morning and it is so appropriate. It is from

“On this day of the Equinox, when Summer turns into Fall, many people are waking up and praying for peace on this dark planet, rife with wars and rumor of wars. Right now it would be expedient for you to remember that peace must begin in each human heart. The problem is that most words for peace are hollow, because they are not coming from inner actions to change the person from within. The problem is that these calls for peace, even though they sound wonderful, are machinations of the minds that have no origin in the heart, so worthwhile actions are not being taken to do away with all your war machinery. Materialism is seen as all-important, so there is hardly any room left for personal spirituality.
“What will it take for humankind – all thinking individuals included – to wake up and start thinking about time wasted on material pursuits? Truly, how will you feel once you have entered upon the next stage of your eternal existence? For this is the meaning and purpose of your life in the flesh, that in looking back over your life on earth you will see the good you have done as well as the time you will have squandered. It is important here and now that you fully realize that your becoming more spiritual must be your aim, if you are choosing eternal life during this mortal existence on planet earth.
“Will you be filled with regret and bemoan the fact that too little time was used by you to generate peaceful feelings towards one another? Did you practice forgiveness on a consistent basis? Did you remember to feed the poor and sick, who could not fend for themselves? Did you help someone who needed a hand to get back on his or her feet? What use were you to the planet at large, however little this usefulness might have been. Start thinking and behaving responsibly, as if God matters, always and in all things, for indeed, He does.
Love and Light
I will love you forevermore My Max

PS: Max hated the term "goodbye"...we never said it to each other. We always said "Later" and indeed I will see him later and so will all of you. Much love to you all."
