New beginnings - "Death is nothing at all"



Death is nothing at all.

I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other, 
That, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way
which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effect.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.

Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same that it ever was.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight? 

I am but waiting for you.
For an interval.
Somewhere. Very near.
Just around the corner.

All is well.



Henry Scott Holland


Although written for the Christian faith, this sentiment is not only shared and believed by all faiths but now backed up even by science and NASA itself - look for the Afterlife video via NASA to find out more from them if you like science. 'Something' happens, but life never stops. Atoms always get reused to rebuild and start new life and most scientists now concede there's something that remains of each and every life spirit (soul) in some sense. 


So, midway in the second decade of the 21st century... death itself really is nothing at all. 



We hope that helps all toward a much happier New Year for 2015 and a far more peaceful future beyond. Most of all of course, our thoughts are with those most recently bereaved.

"We will remember them, through our deeds to honour, cherish, respect you
to keep the peace you and every individual, so richly deserve."

Remembrance: Lest we forget


To all who are facing death right now or indeed dying...
we promise

"At the setting of the sun, 
(throughout every night) 
and in the morning 
(throughout every day)

We will remember them... 
(through our best of deeds)." 


With love, patience and tolerance from ALL those who save lives 
but particularly ALL healthcare professionals in this our of darkest hours.

Thank you.

We WILL Remember


This site is a memorial site and always has been.
Those who made are moving on to better help elsewhere.

We hope all those who have worked and still work so hard to save life
and heal it will be remembered for all eternity.
We hope that those who heal increase in number.
We hope that the number of people at risk and suffering from 
mental illness decreases in number.

We hope more people learn to help others 
instead of hinder and damage others.
We hope more people learn the art of controlling their worst emotions.
We hope more people learn to embrace the best of life 
instead of being consumed by the worst of it.
We hope more people learn to fulfil their full potential 
instead of having it crushed.

We hope all will be rich in good health which we believe is the 
only form of riches worth craving and pursuing.
We hope no one will ever be too selfish nor too selfless again.
We hope compassion and empathy engulfs our species and 
dominates its conduct over the next 2,000 years and beyond
We hope our species learns that there are ways to share all that is
good and not be so greedy as to destroy it.
We hope all people learn how to express anger safely without
endangering others in the process.
We hope all people learn to channel their frustrations into
positive, constructive pursuits for the betterment of all.

We hope all who read this enjoy their lives and are permitted by everyone to do so 
without causing harm to themselves or others.
We hope the world will be full of gladness, joys, laughter and hope but 
that it will never forget to aid those suffering trauma from any cause.
We hope that one day the only cause of mental trauma will be caused 
by acts of nature, not of mankind.

To all who read, we at Mindwalking all wish you a very happy, 
productive, caring, sharing, loving life.

Be good to yourself.
