Reseña del libro "Behind The One-Way Mirror (en Inglés)"

AUTHOR'S FOREWORD Time, precious time, changes everything including our perspective. Looking back, when I was 9 or 10 years old, I thought my grandmother was really old. Today, I'm 20 years older than she was at that time in my life ... and I don't feel as old right now as I thought her to be then. In our young days we don't think about death, and we understand its full impact on life even less. Now as I have entered what I think of as the last chapters of my life, I think about death and dying often. Some days I really think on it and feel it must be closing in on me. Other days it seems like it is not closing in, but just somewhere out there around the bend waiting patiently to come and collect me for the final journey home. As I have aged, I find myself thinking on the past more and more, and I miss those dear ones that are no longer in my life more and more with each passing day. So many times I feel them near even though they are long gone from this earthly plane. In my poem "The Gap Between Pulse Beats" I describe what I think death is like. I have sectioned this book into 4 parts: Section 1 is "Those gone Before" which reflects on the feelings we have when we lose a love one or even just a casual friend; Section 2 is "Aging" which pinpoints the myriad of changes and emotions we feel as the end of life begins to close in on us; Section 3 is "Transitioning" which addresses the area in life when we seem to be here and yet not here at times which is life's way of preparing us for the next journey when we depart this life; and the 4th and last section is "The End?" which goes through the motions and emotions that bring us to the realization death is just the primer for the spirit to grow and move on to the next realm of existence. My hope is that this collection of poetry will soothe the aching heart for those that grieve and will calm the fears one may have about death being the end of everything. The finality of all. It is not the final destruction of our being. It is just a transitioning of flesh to spirit. We are not simply flesh and blood. We are souls inhabiting a body and death is just the burning off of the body from the soul; the separation of spirit from flesh. When we reach "the end" as we think of it on this earthly plane, we will realize that we are still the essence of ourselves and time is only an illusion and does not exist in the reality of the all. So, rest easy, death is not the final frontier ... it is simply the doorway to the wonderful world of spirit. A reunion with "Those Gone Before" where this is no "Aging" and we "Transition" to "The End?". Notice the question mark "The End?" No, the question mark is not a mistake. It is purposely placed there to drive home the fact that death is not the end. It is just the beginning! Candice James, Poet Laureate Emerita, City of New Westminster, BC CANADA
