I'm sad to report that Billinthewild's (Bill Berlat) wife passed away.

I am posting this here because of Bill's love for enjoying hunting and his many friends in Argentina.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you my friend.

Indeed they are, Bill !

As said via email, may God give soon to you and your daughters the necessary strenght to deal with her physical absence , knowing she is now in peace with our Lord, safe from any earthly sufferings....

Her soul is in heaven but her remembrance will stay in your hearts for ever ....

As yourself told me a few months ago:

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.

We all have a loved one whom we miss, my friend ... someone who preceded us in the way of life and whose absence gives another dimension to his presence (memories actually), a dimension we had never been aware of before... and we miss him (or her) so much until there comes a point where we realize that he (or her) in fact never really left us and is (are) always with us - in the depths of our hearts & souls...

And the pain is then replaced by mix of emotions (nostalgia, ilusion, enthusiam), when we calm that absence realizing that we will only have to wait to the very same moment our souls will meet again, in the presence of our Lord... When, how and where we don´t know... But meanwhile we have a few who still need us here SmilerSmiler

Unfortunately this is a road to be travelled alone, because we all have different times of mourning and meditation, needed to settle our thoughts, memories and peace with ourselves... but inevitably this peace comes - and with all the conviction that somewhere and sometime we will meet again with our beloved ones...

This is just another lesson of life, a lesson which in turn will prepare us for the very same moment we will face our own departure...

Honor her with a big smile, my friend... a big smile and continue doing all the things she was surely proud of tu2

Afrikaander: What a beautiful message for Bill (and all of us) at this time.

Bill: As I said last night, if there is anything I can do, just call me.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
