Seeing him off 1/14/2019

This morning right before I woke up, I heard a voice. It said “Don’t forget your Oyakume in Navajoland”.

“Oyakume” is a Japanese term meaning a duty or a responsibility. In my case, it is my life mission that I had been told many times while I was in Japan.

With the message, my thoughts went back to Navajoland. I was thinking about Navajoland and the people whom I met and interacted with for a while.

Around 9 am, I received two text messages. One was from my husband, and the other was from my mother-in-law. It was about my dad-in-law’s older brother. He passed away around 8:30 am.

Maybe it was him who visited me in the morning. That was why I was thinking about Navajo people and the land.

I sent a good prayer to him. I thanked him for his kindness and help to me. I sent him good thoughts and images that he was now free from any pain or regrets, and that he was with his family spirits safely.

He was a good man. He was one of my good old friends.

When I was single, he let me stay at his house for certain nights. I offered some grocery in return. Those days he wanted to write his own story, a memoir, so I shared my knowledge about how to input and edit in Word file. I still remember his friendly smile.

I appreciate him for spending time with me. I wish him for an easy and smooth transition to the spirit world.
