Temporary Separation

In light of a recent event, I am prompted to feel a deep sense of gratitude for the fact that families can be together forever, that this earthly life isn't all there is, and that any separation between worthy, sealed family members can only be temporary. When deaths occur, people say that "life is short," and, thankfully, so is the pain that comes from the loss of life. This may not bring much comfort to those who have lost loved ones, but I hope that it brings them at least some comfort, and I think that it will bring some comfort to me when it becomes my time to mourn.
