Sailing into the Light - Highsmith, Susan

. .

Résumé :
There is no better time to read a story to a friend or a loved one than when they are leaving this body and making their transition into the next Life. It is a time that can frighten us or fill us with sadness for our impending loss. If we can fill our hearts and minds with loving words and images of a Life beyond this Life, it can soothe us and the dear one we wish to help on their journey. Don't wait to read a eulogy after your Loved One is gone. Read a short story-a metaphor-inspired by a poem almost 200 years old. A sailing ship leaves the shore and as well-wishers shout their goodbyes, those on a distant shore chime their welcome. Ease the journey of anyone you care about by reading Sailing into the Light aloud to them.

The First Fairy Tale, Books I - IV are metaphors about (I) conception, (II) the first three weeks of gestation when the heart begins to beat, (III) the developing senses, and (IV) birth. Research reveals that newborns prefer to hear their mother's voice and like stories they have heard before. Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) are encouraging parents to read to their premature infants to promote loving bonds, stimulate auditory discrimination systems and provide foundations for language development and secure attachment. It's never too early to start reading to your children or to speak softly, whispering secrets of connecting to Nature and the Divine in All Life....
