I too think it was perhaps a memorial to a friend.<BR/>But who knows the deeper meaning of the last part of your story- another link, perhaps, in something we don't quite understand.<BR/>You told this quite magically. Up the mountain, down again, up again, and balloons rising to the sky before vanishing. <BR/>It's like a curious poem.Phyllis Hunt McGowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13370730851612587650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887931000695497136.post-3974696810459577572008-06-10T07:39:00.000-07:002008-06-10T07:39:00.000-07:00What a sight this must have been to see.

We picked a magnificent spot 400 feet straight up out of a punchbowl. At the appropriate moment she threw the urn and in the mixture of ash and moisture from the sea we watched a wonderful rainbow form and move downwards. But then catching the breeze, the whole dazzle of color rose upwards and over our heads AWAY from us in the other direction towards the top of the Mountain where no rainbow could possibly go, shimmering and dazzling, astounding our souls and confirming his spirit.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04952442938347357506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887931000695497136.post-36005886232058713122008-06-09T12:58:00.000-07:002008-06-09T12:58:00.000-07:00makes you wonder...and the great thing about it? i...makes you wonder...and the great thing about it? it can be for ANY reason, and unless we ask, we won't know.<BR/><BR/>Maybe the question is not what they are going to do, but what you will you celebrate if it was YOU? xxpERiWinKlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01360909259789189106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887931000695497136.post-35721416494812370932008-06-09T12:54:00.000-07:002008-06-09T12:54:00.000-07:00when i was walking through a park today i noticed ...when i was walking through a park today i noticed a pair of blue balloons entangled in the branches of a chestnut tree and wondered how they got there...<BR/>now i read your post about men with helium balloons... coincidence?<BR/><BR/>love your mystery, thoughpolonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12631341810150848122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887931000695497136.post-38636523480557399962008-06-09T11:10:00.000-07:002008-06-09T11:10:00.000-07:00We release balloons at my Mom's grave on her anniv...We release balloons at my Mom's grave on her anniversary date...............<BR/>Perhaps it was a memorial gesture as mentioned.<BR/>Blessings<BR/>JeanneJeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16734743330025974332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887931000695497136.post-85565947358558449492008-06-09T10:34:00.000-07:002008-06-09T10:34:00.000-07:00what a beautiful mystery :)we released helium ball...what a beautiful mystery :)<BR/><BR/>we released helium balloons at my sister's funeral and then at the grave site, we released brightly coloured butterflies and they flew into the air ... this reminded me of that ... xodaisieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06471659782256693603noreply@blogger.com
