A Letter to the Guthrie Family

Dear Guthrie Family,

In no way, could any words express my feelings about how all of you have been saddened by this tragic event that you have been suffering through. So, I am not even going to try.

I am going to share with you; a story I have told numerous people when they lose a loved one. As I am a believer, just as you are and I am sure your mother is. All that is left for each one of you, besides of course always hoping that your mother will be found. As we are all believers in our own eternity, we must conclude that your mother is alive at this very moment... Be it here on earth in her body, or within her essence of mind, spirit, and soul in heavenly peace, right now with God.

So the question comes down to the strength of your faith. What would you want for your mother and the rest of your family if (YOU) were the one who was kidnapped? Would you want those you left behind to be happy and to live fully despite losing one of your loved ones or would you want them to carry the cross of sadness the rest of their lives? We can only honor the memory of any loved one by living fully for ourselves and the rest of our family who are still living here on Earth.

What is the proof for all of us that we live on? Simply ask yourself and anyone you know, no matter what age they may be, if they feel twenty years younger or more. We all feel this way from the center of our being which is timeless. Thousands of books have been written regarding reincarnation, out of body experiences, and miracles are all further proof that validate our beliefs. Consider the words of Baudelaire the father of modern poetry, who wrote "Be Drunk, with Wine, Virtue, or Poetry, whatever you please, but Throw off the chains and Martyrdom of time and be free!"

And most importantly, when a loved one of our passes on, they leave us only physically but are constantly watching over us. And they feel the emotions that we are having within ourselves. In short, if we are sad they become sad also, if we feel depressed and lonely, they experience the same feelings. All they want from us because they love us, is to be happy. And each and every individual on Earth who are believers has their faith tested regarding this issue. When my father passed on, he left a message for me, as he had a beatific smile on his face that I had never witnessed before on anyone. His message to me was "Be Happy, Live Life Fully, be of Joy and let your mantra always be 'Thank You' for including all of us in your phenomenal creation". With this steadfast belief, not only do we honor our loved ones, but we also honor our creator and HIS very purpose in giving us life: "TO HAVE PLEASURE THROUGH CREATIVITY!"

And it does not matter if one's creativity is expressed by having children or building spaceships to the moon or being an entrepreneur or being a teacher, or a carpenter. The only thing that matters, that the experiences we have, give us pleasure.

Determine right now for yourself that you will applaud the life of your mother, who still watches over you, with all her love and the blessings of heaven.

Sincerely,

Raymond Coppola, Founder of OutrageousThinking.Life
