This weekend, dear friends of ours lost their little girl, Jordan. Of all things, she choked on a grape, and died in her father’s arms despite their frantic efforts to save her. She was only 3 years old, and I write this as just a small tribute to the sweet young girl that she was. Jordan was a delightful child, and touched the lives of everyone who knew her. Her parents are exceptional people and created a little girl with a unique mix of her father’s quiet intelligence and her mother’s fiery, brilliant feistiness. It is so very difficult to watch them suffer through this loss. In fact, it causes me to question my deepest beliefs…for how can Law of Attraction apply here? How can they have thought this into happening?…They are expecting another baby and are probably the best and most loving parents I have known. The truth is we cannot know everything and there are forces at play that we just do not understand…all I can do is be there for my friends in the days and months to come. I apologize for the sadness of today’s post, but felt it necessary to say goodbye and thank you to little Jordan for being with us these past short years…we love you and we will deeply miss your little ways.

My deepest condolences to you and your friends. I can only imagine what you all must be feeling right now.
There are many ways in which the Law of Attraction brings things into our lives, yet it is often the case that we do not know why until later. That comes as no comfort in this dark hour, I know, but now is not the time for explanations anyway.
Celebrate Jordan for who she was. That is the best gift that we can give to any living being – regardless of which side of the veil they reside upon.
All my best,
Aaron
