Joel Goldsmith wrote in The Infinite Way that groups of people who share spiritual love are bound together for eternity. I’ve felt this connection often with friends. The Love we have for each other causes us all to feel joy and pain when one of us has a happy or tragic event in our lives. We share the giddiness of our children marrying and having babies; we're sad when one of us loses a loved one or suffers through an illness with a family member. I'm grateful for every one of us who care enough to hold each other close through life's trials. We may be present physically, or sending love from afar, but we are connected — bound together for eternity. I pray this omnipresent Love be felt by everyone, everywhere, who is feeling lost and alone, frightened, or sick. Let us remember that loving energy is palpable, and when we send it, it is felt.
“You will lose someone you can’t live without, and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.”
