It feels good to be amongst the crowd. So many people, gathered in one place together, sharing the emotion of this moment.
Our voices intermingle as the music unites us, making us one, as it so often does.
I draw a breath. Counting slowly. One, two, three.
And then we set it free, each of us releasing the final affirmation that concludes the song.
As we sing this last note, I wish that it could ring on for eternity.
Because when it fades, so the hymn finishes, and your funeral reaches its end.
And my life without you must begin.
