Dedicated to my most AMAZING dad - love you lots... ❤️ Indra Rajagopal As I looked over I could see the fanfare, my mum, my dad, my brother, my sisters, my family! Could it be them? I looked across and caught a glimpse of what could be. I steadied myself and walked as gracefully as I could on to that bridge to freedom. As I walked, the strangest thing happened. My steps became lighter, the bridge sparkled with love and wonder.The sunlight warmed my face and melted my heart, gods words spoke to me, crystal, words of encouragement and kindness. As I hesitantly moved forward, my pain subsided, as I moved my fear was less, as I moved my legs became stronger, my tired lungs seemed to fill with air, my breadth became lighter, my heart was filled with an abundance of love and joy, I couldn't just walk, I could run, fly even...... A momentarily glance back from where I came caught my breadth. My wife, my daughter, my son in law, my grandkids, my sisters, nephews and nieces and our extended families, my most amazing friends, my neighbours, a multitude of people on the bank saying their goodbyes. My heart filled up. The lighting of a candle, the distant sound of music and your prayers saved me all at once. Momentarily I stopped.. I asked myself - Should I? - Dare I? I passed over into the stars with a spring in my step at 1:21pm on Monday 17th May 2021. Heartened in the depth of knowing that one day those that I left behind would find me again and I too would find them. In the meantime I will make the most of my time in this wonderful place - as spirit - in love and always blessed. I realised today whilst my journey felt unknown, it is packed with so many wonderful connections both family and friends. A rich heritage of connections criss crossed from across the world, all from different people, different but the same, all as one. I waved goodbye to my loving family from that bank, sending them the message that what the eye cannot see, the heart can feel. ❤️ I sent that whisper today, it reached you when I passed. So here I am. In a wondrous place that can only be provided by love - god. I developed my wings today, I can truly fly. On this side I see all my relatives of the past and friends long gone. I realise the circle of life, it DOES exist. To my wife, daughter, son, grandkids, sisters, nephews, nieces, friends and neighbours. I am still here, ever present right by your side. I am here as a guiding light, shining a torch to help you. We are still together and in a place of quiet you can truly feel me, I am right here. Close your eyes, send me your message, share your joy, share your sadness, share your brilliance. I am still here - in spirit. Love always, yours truly Indra Amazing husband, brilliant father, fabulous grandfather, loving son, loyal brother, caring and fun friend, inspired uncle, wonderful nephew, inspiring mentor, intellectual teacher and true life genius!
