The photo above is of the church at St. Stephen-in-Brannel, Cornwall.
Most locals simply call the village St. Stephens. The Brannel bit is left over from medieval times when the parish was within the royal manor of Brannel.
Death is nothing at all,I have only slipped away into the next room,I am I and you are you.Whatever we were to each other,that we are still.Call me, by my old familiar name.Speak to me,in the the easy way you always used.Put no difference into your tone.Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.What is death, but a negligible accident?Why should I be out of mindbecause I am out of sight?I am waiting for you,for an interval,somewhere very near,just around the corner.All is well.Nothing is past; nothing is lost.One brief moment and all will be as it was before.How we shall laughat the trouble of parting when we meet again!
Thank you for your visit to my blog. Good wishes - Mike.
