Oh . . . This losing . . . It’s the hardest part of loving, isn’t it? It’s not fair. And there might never be a good enough reason why. Cry when you need to. Laugh when you can. Cradle your tender heart for awhile. And then, once again, dare to open yourself up to love. It will find you. Sing on, sweet woman. Sing on. We’ve got your back.
Oh my friend, I weep with you. I hold you in a heart hug 🫂 ❤ The beautiful thing about perfect love is that it is eternal! He will always be with you. I am so sorry, Melinda. 😢💔
As the late Queen Elizabeth II of England said “Grief is the price we pay for love” .. it is a high price but worth it and my heart goes out to you because although we are treading a similar path, we can only walk it alone. May his spirit always be near you and bring you some comfort, as time passes. Too soon in the now, but as time passes. Much love and care to you. ❤
When you've had enough time to catch your breath, I'm sure we'd ALL love to hear much more about Michael to honor his life and legacy. Maybe some pictures. What a privilege it would be to allow much more of the world know about such a very special person.
My heart-beats, compassion to you both💞My Love 27yrs has cancer . We're blessed to find each other♥︎Now,we have only'us'+The fight +fear' ~but that's Grace&Eternal~You WiLL meet Again❣🎵♥︎🕊🕊
God bless Michael and you. He is still with you. In every sunrise, in the springtime flowers, in the summer breeze, in the leaves that fall come autumn, in every snowflake, and in the stars at night.
So Sorry for Michael's passing. You take time, he may be in the breeze on your mountain, lifting your locks and your spirits? Feel his love in your music . Prayers for you both👃
My heart spills over with love and comfort for you dear woman…if anyone can transform grief into light it is you Dear Heart. We help each other carry our burdens, lean into us, let us carry you through.
Dear Melinda, from someone who is walking through loss too, your loved one is near in spirit. Love never dies, and it is the greatest energy in the universe. I am praying that you will be comforted. I love you❤Blessings❤
You're such a beautiful human and so was he.. I'm grateful you both had the 3 years together. He's still with you and always will be. I just hugged my daughter and Granddaughter. 5 minutes of that Joy was just for you. Be comforted and in peace. I don't comment often but I want you to know you touch my 66 year old Soul. We all love you too. 💗❤💗🦋
I have nobody, so I’m hugging my Golden Retriever and giving you air hugs. I’m so sorry for your loss, but happy you had 3 beautiful years with him. 💔 😔
Precious Melinda- The space that the physical body occupied is missed in a very profound way. When the ability to look into the eyes of a person who genuinely & unselfishly loved us is gone- we grieve that vacated space. What a glorious gift to have known that rarest of treasures- REAL love. You too, have given out of your heart to total strangers, like me. The tender musical expressions that flows from your fingertips resonates on an inner level that leaves us emotionally richer. That ability dear one, is as rare a gift as any other. The love & light you carry for Michael will find its way from your heart to the very notes that will inevitably touch the souls of many, many others. You're a brilliant light & you are loved more than you know. We posess the ability to be a portal of intense power- a portal of love. May your heart heal to shine brighter, & stronger than ever before. In the end, love is all that remains. 🔥💙🔥
I'm dealing with cancer myself right now. It takes so much from us. I'm sorry to hear about Michael, but at the same time, I'm glad to hear what a great man he was and how much he was loved. You gave him a lovely tribute. Take care of yourself.
Melinda, Let us give you five minutes of joy this time.. while reading these comments. You are one beautiful soul, so unique, and like you describe your beloved… wise and deep. He is still around you, no doubt. The veil separating us from the other side is thin. And yes, you will see him again, where you’ll both be free and healthy and filled with a deep joy that is unfathomable on this earth. Sending love to your beautiful soul. 🌺
So sorry for your loss. I lost my best friend in January and I strongly believe he is still with me in spirit. I talk to him constantly. I believe your friend will be with you also. Talk to him. People don't really die. We humans are just balls of energy temporarily living in a human form. Your friend is now in spiritual form and you can't see him but he's still with you. Look for the signs, something you both enjoyed like a certain type of butterfly, bird or other animal. My friend has sent me some blue butterflies, which he knew I loved. To others in his family, he has appeared as a luna moth, which he loved so much he had one tattooed on his body. Hang in there. Wishing you the best.
Melinda my heart and prayers go out to you. I lost an old girlfriend last week. We met in the 80s and shared 8 years together. She decided that she needed to find at least one other person to tell her they loved her. In her journey she became an alcoholic and destroyed her liver and kidneys. She had no family and I remained in touch all these years. I'm sad that she's gone but happy her pain has ended. Big hugs to you and may God help ease your loss of Michael.❤❤❤
My heart breaks as your dose . I too lost my most amazing Auntie to Cancer on July 1 as well . She was 93 . I feel your loss and sending you healing light to your soul . As you wait for your next time you see your beloved “Michael “. 🙏🏻💜… so sorry for your loss ..
Fair winds and following seas, Michael 🙏🏻🤍 Grieve in whatever way is true for you; there is no timeline. Sending Love, Strength, Peace, and Joy to a life well-lived 🤍 Be good to you 🙏🏻🤍
He is quite literally around you, 24/7, I'm convinced. He might be walking there with you, every day, during the rest of your life.Then he will be there, his arms open to receive you "to the other side", when the moment arrives. Thank you for sharing, and please, let us know more about him, if you like ❤
I’m so sorry for your loss. My daughter said we are left with collateral beauty the price for loving someone. She lost her brother I lost my precious boy. Your love & his love will carry you. ❤️🙏
My heart goes out to you. I know how you feel as I was with my husband for 25 years. He passed from cancer four years ago. I wish I was there to hug you. Peace. ❤
Sweet Melinda, thank you for sharing your grief with us. Your heart is safe with us. That you feel him is he hugging your heart and all of us embracing you in your sorrow. May your memories of times you’ve spent together remain a treasure chest (within your heart) of jewels shining out love & joy. ☮️ &❤ to you
I know, Melinda, that you're missing your dear Michael but please believe that he has crossed over to Spirit and you will see him again. Sending you love, peace and big hugs! 💕
I’m am so sorry. Shakespeare says that love is “a sweet gift of nature that reflects the union of two true hearts in one spirit”. He will be with you always. My deepest sympathies.
Dear Melinda, I dont know you, nor you me, yet somehow your youtube videos just popped up in my feed. Having recently lost my so very unique, loving and beautiful man, my heart truly feels your loss. My most sincere condolances, and may the love you shared carry you through your time of reflection and grieving. A greater peace will eventually come. You are loved. Prayers and deepest Blessings, Sv
Dear Melinda, the people we love are immortal because they live on in us. I feel your pain, but I also feel your love and your willingness to bear the pain for the sake of the memory. I - and many others as well - am with you. ❤😘
He found his counterpart in you. Having a man able to talk about things in general is not easy to find. They may be wonderful in so many other ways except for relatability. I worked for a woman who at 80 lost hers. She grieved. Their marriage was maintained every weekend. He worked in the city and didn't commute. In our last days of acquaintance she was preparing to move home to Pierre, SD. Even though it's life it doesn't make it easy. I think many who are younger and single do not understand the impact of this passage in life. Angels are with you ❤
So now you can be assured that Michael will remain with you, closer than your life's vein, and constant, calming your pain and remembering those days with you. He will not leave until you are ready, and if that is never then he will stay until you are reunited on the most beautiful journey you can ever imagine. I cannot imagine a more beautiful face to see when you pass over, but it's worth waiting for, dear sister. Am offering a prayer for you and for the progress of his soul as he lifts you up. Perhaps what has just transpired is the reason he didn't want to come be with you. He didn't want your to suffer seeing him go. Thinking of the love you both share is more than my five mnutes of joy.
Hearts are heavy with losses, but through your songs things will lighten. Memories are a great tool to lead to a great song of life. Find peace Melinda.
So very sorry. Grief is love, with no where to go. My love was a songwriter. He passed 3 years ago. He too was an amazing person. Played music many places west of the Mississippi. I feel your pain. You will experience roller coaster days ahead. But you have a huge family here that cares about you!! I'm holding you in my thoughts and prayers!
Dearest Melinda, I am so sorry to hear your sad news. My heart weeps with you. ❤🪶😢🪶😭🪶 The love you have freely shared to us, we share it back to you. At this time of sorrow, I wish I could reach my arms through and give you a real hug. I pray God will massage your hurting heart. God is with you. I love you Melinda, you will be close in my thoughts and heartfelt prayers. Take the time you need dear one. We're here with you - you're not alone! For anyone else who may be sad or suffering - the same words are for you. You also are not forgotten. You are very much Loved. You are important and I'm glad we're in the same community together. Sending Hugs and Prayers to All. ❤🤗🙏🪶
5 Minutes of Joy with him. Yes, hugs for you. Yes great in the heart. Thank you for sharing your most personal experiences to help each of us as well. Yes all meet in heaven on that day. No regrets is right. Love you too Amen ♥️✝️♥️🙏🕊️♥️
Dear Melinda, so sorry for your loss of a dear friend, companion. I know in my heart that he will always be near you. I can only speak for myself but you have brought so much happiness and peace through your music and your words when you talk to us. You will be in my prayers, in my thoughts. You have blessed so many of us. Sending love from Louisiana to you, Debbie
Melinda, what a precious gift to have shared such deep love for another! Your love for Michael will be in your heart forever as you carry his memories with you where ever you go. United now in God's love and in every living thing, our loved ones are safe and at peace . We are only visitors here for such a short time, then we return home, leaving the pain and suffering behind, knowing we did our best and have left earth a better place to live and love . Healing is always taking place! Much love!
Love may be the only way to understand the web we all share with life’s connection of birth to death. It may be the one riddle we have in our life time to better understand. 💚
Oh! My father passed away 2 years ago, on 2/2/2022, and he had brain tumor. He has fight it for 2 years before going. It was a slow process. But I feel him with me even more after he left. I'm sure you're going to meet again ❤ I wish you sweet moments ahead
Dearest Melinda, I am so very sorry for your loss. You are truly a special, special woman and I’m sure Michael was a special, special man. I’m glad he will remain in your heart until you both meet again in heaven. My deepest condolences. I send to you the strength you will need to go on. Memories of your three years together will be etched in your heart and soul. Hold them close. God bless you my beautiful friend. Much love, strength and hugs to help you heal. 🙏
I’m single, by myself so I hugged myself. I shed a few tears for the passing of your beloved. May he rest in peace and travel fully into the light safely. May you feel the wholeness of your sacred spirit and stay healthy and strong!
I was invited by a loved one to join him on a work trip. I had some hesitation (health issues), but I agteeed. I leave today and still was a bit nervous about it. This just reminded me how precious time together is! This trip is another chance to spend time enjoying each other while we can. Thank you for this reminder and all the love you share. I'm praying for God's walk with you and that love may surround you. ❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️ my heart goes out to you ❤❤❤❤ may you have comfort when there is pain ❤️ they are always in our heart ❤️ always ❤️ I lost my mom to cancer on June 10th, I took care of her for 13 years before we found out she had stage 4 cancer , she made it a month and a week after. Same as him, her body was not strong enough to fight it off. Thank you for your words, they help me not feel alone. Until we meet again ❤❤❤ perfect love
You're right Melinda. You had 3 years and you're grateful for that time. I had 18 months with the most wonderful kind hearted person I had ever known and he passed with a sudden massive heart attack My world stopped completely. It took me time to get through it and I haven't been attached since God bless you
I know you don't know me and I don't know you but I love your spirit and that makes me feel like I would love him too. You don't need to provide for everyone else when you are hurting, unless it truly brings you comfort to do so. I don't have any more words to comfort you, but there are plenty here who want to be there for you.
I'm so sorry, Melinda. I know, thanks to you, he had support & love through that difficult period. You are a kind, wonderful human being (as you obviously strive & work to be). I believe you will be with him again some day but I wish the universe should send you what ever is best to give you the comfort and companionship you need until then.
I’m so very sorry. I lost my husband of 33 years unexpectedly on New Year’s Eve 2021. I haven’t been the same since. God bless you. Yes, reach over and hug your loved one(s). Things can change in an instant . 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You are full of love Melinda. You are healthy in your beliefs and sense of love. It's true, I've had a profound spiritual experience and you will see each other again soon! Write that song from the heart. Peace.
Oh Melinda. Thank you for sharing your beautiful heart, your beautiful love, Michael. My heart is alongside yours...holding joy right with the grief, for I know the two can Coexist💔💖
Oh my dear friend, how my heart aches for you, Melinda. You will keep Michael so close to your heart always. Thinking right now about him leaving this earthly world behind having your love. That was a beautiful gift. I love you.
Peace and love dear woman. Sing on...5 minutes of joy will come as you know...xoxo...nothing harder than this temporary feeling permanent letting go,,,,xoxo.
Grief comes in waves. My loss was two years ago this month after a 45 year partnership. I still have conversations with him. I feel his presence in many different ways. And my community has been such a strength. You are a blessing and sharing your life. Thank you.
Micheal will watch over you with more love and light then you can ever imagine. May you those memories with him carry your soul through the lonliness and loss of his physical form not being there. And may he show you a sign that you will recognize very soon to open your heart even further than you have here with us. Bless you dear one❤🫂 sending energy hugs
Dearest Melinda, Please know that you are not alone. We love you, too, as so many other people do. You are a strong and loving woman and I feel grateful that Jonna led us to you. The thought that kept running through my mind as you talked is that he is in the wind that blows across your land and ruffles your hair. Love and joy back to you.
You are surely a messenger and teacher sent to us from God. Your spirit and divine energy are so bright as to lead the way for others to find the love and peace they seek. You are loved by so many. I send you my deepest condolences and my deepest gratitude for the light you shine.
I hope you feel all the love and hugs coming your way from all of us who always appreciate your five minutes of joy and your peaceful, calming ways. Wishing you much more than five minutes of joy, every single day, even with the sadness you feel. You are an inspiration.
Oh my dear Melinda- I’m normally terrible at these things but wanted to say how sad I am at the loss of this wonderful man you loved so much. Many of us strangers love you too and hope that in some way you will feel our love during this difficult time ❤
Oh Dear Melinda, Loss is so hard. I’m sending you my love wholeheartedly. Those precious joyful memories you have, hang on to them for sure and let those tears flow and release when you need to. Love is certainly worth it but losing it is so hard to get through. ❤️ much love to you. ❤️
I am so very sorry for your loss , I'd put my arms around you and hold you if I could. You're such a a dear sweet Sister.. I lost 2 brothers and 3 sister in 2 years.. but we'll see them again in Heaven.. Much love and many heart felt prayers , again , I'm sorry .. Love you sweet girl💞🙏✝️🕊️
