Perfect

Someone just said the same thing to me last week. ["God only makes perfect, so my daughter must not have been perfect and He knew it. That is why he took her."] I am two and a half years out and I still didn't know what to say. What I wanted to say is that if God only makes perfect, how could she be anything but, despite her death.

What the Buddhist said to anonymous [ "Perhaps your child needed a life that was only love. Think about it - you nurtured her inside your womb, welcomed her, and held her until she died. She knew only love in this life. Perhaps she just needed a rest. You won't know why, but you'll know that you did give her love while she lived."], that is what someone said to me. I talk about that often, because it was beautiful to think she was in her last life, and picked me for unconditional love. And that I will spend the rest of my life reconciling her death in the wake of her. I guess that is what I find spiritually comforting, if someone is going to try to say something spiritually comforting. That I loved her and she knew it and she was perfect and I know it.
