Die Zeit heilt nicht alle Wunden, aber sie lehrt uns, mit der liebevollen Erinnerung an dich zu leben. In Gedenken zum Jahrestag.
Wenn du bei Nacht den Himmel anschaust,
wird dir sein, als leuchten alle Sterne,
weil ich auf einem von ihnen wohne,
weil ich auf einem von ihnen lache.
Du allein wirst Sterne haben, die lachen können.
Begrenzt ist das Leben, doch unendlich die Erinnerung.
Über allen Gipfeln ist Ruh',
in allen Wipfeln spürest du
kaum einen Hauch.
Die Vögelein schweigen im Walde,
warte nur, balde,
ruhest du auch.
Gottes Wege sind dunkel, aber das Dunkel liegt nur auf unseren Augen, nicht auf seinen Wegen.
Und meine Seele spannte
weit ihre Flügel aus,
flog durch die stillen Lande,
als flöge sie nach Haus.
Der Tod der Mutter ist der erste Kummer, den man ohne sie beweint.
Am Ende wird alles gut. Und wenn es noch nicht gut ist, dann ist es noch nicht das Ende.
Du weißt erst was Trauer bedeutet,
wenn die eigene Mutter stirbt.
