A Prayer Needed

[Guest guest]

Yesterday I had a young woman come into my office, of couse upset,

but she had more hurt in her eyes than most of my clients. OK, most

of you don't know what I do for a living, but I deal with the most

sorrowful kind of stone on Earth, which is Granite. I am a monument

dealer, and when I sell someone a stone it is for the saddest of all

reasons and purposes.

 

I had to cry after this woman left. She blurted out through her

tears that her son passed away. Please know that if one more woman

comes to me and tells me that I am going to flip. This is a cronic

occurance happening too frequently for my comfort lately. (I have 2

sons) Anyway, when I asked about putting a family name on her

monument she really fired up, and welled up. She directly told me

that she had two adpoted children, and that her husband was in jail

for molesting her son, who had just died, and that HIS last name was

getting no credit on the memorial.

 

I know the kind of anger and hurt this woman is feeling. (Not

exactly, but to some degree) Don't ask me how other than woman's

intuition, and also because I know that when I feel that, how can I

describe it, like when someone comes in and robs your home.

Victimized I guess, victimized and now the other word I am looking

for.....like stabbed in the back. Senior moment guys... I do that a

lot.

 

I know I react that same way too, I just blab and put right out there

what the person has done, because it is the only way to deal with the

hurt and betrayal, (that is the word betrayal, they come to me

sooner or later) is such that the shame has to be unveiled because

hiding it from others isn't warranted to protect the other person's

image. The hurt manifests and if someone goes there, well, it's just

all laid on on the field for them!

 

I couldn't say too much to her, I have not developed that

realtionship with her yet, but I will, because that is what I do. I

give comfort to people when they need it the most. I serve them and

I give them support.

 

So two things I need from you guys are these:

1- pray for her heart to heal. Oh there is so much pain and agony in

her. I have never never saw such pain. It's just not fair. But I

know the universe works in a very impersonal way sometimes. I don't

know what lesson is to be learned by this, but I am grateful it's not

mine. Today I feel so blessed.

2- I never have done this, but I want to give her some stones to help

her. What kind of a bag should I mix for her?

 

She just stopped in for a cold call, and will be scheduling an

appointment with me along with her parents to start working on a

design and selection of granite. So, I would like to have something

for her when she comes back.

 

Thanks for all your help. I really do appreciate it. I only became

this upset one other time, and that was when another couple came to

me that their 19 year old son was killed on his motorcycle. It

chokes me up being a mother. My heart aches for their pain. And I

think they know that, it's not just a sale. I dread their pain and I

really try to comfort them the best I can.

Lorain -

 

I don't know what you have on hand, definitely rose quartz and green

aventurine to help her in her healing and forgiveness of the

situation. I just been reading about danburite since I joined this

board, which would help her to have some understanding of the

situation. I think it would be important to stay with gently healing

and supportive stones in her current condition.

Lorain,

 

Rose quartz and kunzite are two that come immediately to mind. What I am

also getting might sound a bit strange....so here goes....I am getting that

a small piece of the granite that is chipped off of the stone that is made

for her son. It will be for strength. I am unsure why I am being " told "

this. Sometimes it is just listening and passing on the message even when I

do not understand it. Compassion and prayers to her and her family.

 

Blessings,

Laurie

Hi Lorain,

 

Gentle healing energy sent for this mother. Perhaps you could add some rose

quartz and apache tears to the bag for her.

 

One thing in your post lept out to me - " ...the most sorrowful kind of stone on

Earth, which is Granite " . I've come to see Granite-the monument, in a different

light. I have been doing my family tree, so far seven generations back. In my

trips to cemeteries, I find the stone, and I touch it, and my finger traces the

letters etched there. It is true the death is sorrowful, but the stone shouts

out Joy to me. It calls out " Look here, read me. I loved and I was loved. I

was loved so much that they erected a monument that shouts 'I was here.' " The

loss is sorrow, but the Granite is the monument of love.

 

Blessings,

Janie

It's a bittersweet. When you come in, and you know it's the final tangible

thing you will ever do for that person you love, the finality hits you again.

When they see it errected.......it really hits them. Inside, if they like the

finished product and it really emits and projects the person it was designed

for, they do get a a warm feeling, at least most of the time, but it's sorrowful

too.

Let's face it, as I say, it's not like buying a dress. Lorain
