I need to be able to tell Barbara that, I feel like Tania, Alan, and all who love her will be OK if she goes.

Barbara, our what an awesome, mysterious, important river boat ride we all share that connection, loving light that cant be broken or lessened that is what I will miss the most, your passion, vitality, caring, but you are being called home and if the spirit wants you, we will love you. Go in peace. Go in love. Fully loved. Go in joy. A life fully lived.

Is there a place in me that can say Go, ?
