Recently, I overheard a mother
and daughter in their last moments together at the airport as
the daughter's departure had been announced. Standing near the
security gate, they hugged and the mother said, "I
love you and I wish you enough."
The daughter replied, "Mom, our life together has been
more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you
enough, too, Mom"
They kissed and the daughter left. The mother walked over to
the window where I sat. Standing there, I could see she wanted
and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on her privacy but
she welcomed me in by asking, "Did you ever say good-bye
to someone knowing it would be forever?"
"Yes, I have," I replied. "Forgive me for
asking but why is this a forever good-bye?"
I am old and she lives so far
away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is the next trip
back will be for my funeral," she said. When you were
saying good-bye, I heard you say, "I wish you
enough." May I ask what that means?"
She began to smile.
"That's a wish that has been handed down from other
generations. My parents used to say it to everyone." She
paused a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in
detail and she smiled even more. "When we said 'I wish
you enough' we were wanting the other person to have a life
filled with just enough good things to sustain them".
Then turning toward me, she shared the following, reciting it
from memory:
I wish you enough sun to
keep your attitude bright.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive.
I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life
appear much bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final
good-bye.
She then began to cry and
walked away.
They say it takes a minute to
find a special person, An hour to appreciate them! , A day to
love them,
And an entire life to forget them.
TAKE TIME TO LIVE!
To all my friends and loved ones,
I WISH YOU ENOUGH!
"All the delightful things of the world--sweet sounds,
lovely forms, all the pleasant tastes and touches and
thoughts--these are all agreed to bring happiness if they are
not grasped and possessed.
"But if you regard them merely as pleasures for your own
use and satisfaction and do not see them as passing wonders,
they will bring suffering."
