I combined two of my favourite poems around departures as I feel it’s exactly Milli and a beautiful blessing as well as confirmation of Milli and her spirit. I wish I could be here to celebrate Milli today but send you on this poem as words of comfort and a healing balm in that gap Milli has left behind.
Much love and light,

Ancient Irish Blessings on Death
Written by John O Donaghue (An Irish poet himself departed)
“I pray that you will have the blessing
Of being consoled and sure about your death.
May you know in your soul
There is no need to be afraid.
When your time comes, may you have
Every blessing and strength you need.
May there be a beautiful welcome for you
In the home you are going to.
You are not going somewhere strange,
Merely back to the home you have never left.
May you see the reflection of your life’s kindness and beauty
Hi Milli…I have met you in January 2005, and you helped me to arrange a workshop. I was always remembering you. I get a real deep shock, when I heart from your accident. My mother was killed in a car – accident too. The whole thing came up to me again, and you know, you have a similar looking with my mother and I was asking myself: “Why did it happen to them. What is the relation between the victim and a the doer?” I hope you will find answer where you are now, maybe if you come back, we will meet again. So I want to say good buy to you, that you will find your peace in universe. I will always be loving your soul
and remembering you.
Milli dear soul, you will be so missed by all of us who you touched with your love and laughter. Away with the faeries at last, flying free. Thanks for all you gave to us here on the earth plane. You will never be far away and you will never be forgotten. Love you so much. Blessed be.
May the flowers you planted in this world continue to blossom and offer their sweet perfume of love truth and laughter so that you can sing and dance on our hearts with the fairies and angels forever after Love and Light to you Milli, all your friends and family x Ami x
I am one of the many people who loved Milli and her impeccable devotion to making the world a happier, more joyful place. Milli seemed to innately understand how to bring a smile to all kinds of people, of all ages. I found her to be wise in many ways, a result of her Main Arm upbringing, and her karma. I found her to be brave, steadfast and committed to the happiness of strangers and friends. She understood ‘connection’, and lived out of that depth understanding of what it is to be human. Those who knew her are truly blessed. Smiling through the tears, I KNOW she is flying free. Bye Milli, you beloved gorgeous gal!
Oh Milli how I miss you.. I feel such a deep loss..
yet I feel an immense gratitude of you and what you gave to so many..inspiration, motivation, authenticity, play, laughter, empathy, connection.. and you truly inspired.. ‘be yourself there’s no one better qualified’ Your realness, energy and passion what a gift to all.
I have witness you seek, find, heal, grow and truly blossom into doing and being what you dreamed of..you did it Milli! those NVC seeds you planted will keep on growing and blossoming.
Like you said ‘nvc was the missing element, I’m sharing something I’m so passionate about, this has given meaning to my life’
I honor our deep and honest friendship Milli and over the last 12 years I cherish the rich and colourful movie in my heart and mind of you..
festivals, abundance workshops, parties, ceremonies,wildcat dress ups, yoga, dancing, beach power walks &talks, bike rides, empathy swaps, NVC trainings and ongoing groups, tears, laughter.. you have affected me. Thank you Milli for your gift of life you so freely, generously and abundantly shared, you’re unforgettable.
‘Into the freedom of wind and sunshine we let you go
Into the dance of the stars and planets we let you go
Into the winds breath and star makers we let you go
We love you, we miss you and your laughter
go safely, go dancing, go flying home
Milli you were such a light upon this earth in so many ways. We grieve at your absence and yet in our hearts you will always live on.
Your presence and love for humanity has touched so many in so many ways.
Blessings dear one and to your family at this time.
As you guard us from the other side I say thank you and deep gratitude for having known you for a time.
with Love Life and Laughter and huge compassion

The last thing Milli said to me was “Just be clear about what you really want”. On reflection, she was really emphatic about it. Last time I saw her she was so empowered, centered and happy. She told me she’d found a peace and healing within that she’d been searching for, and was ready to share it with the world. I find it hard to believe she’s gone, but am grateful I got to know her while she was here.
Our meeting in this realm was short and sweet…I’ve always admired your effervescent presence – you stood out amongst the crowd whether in fairy wings & rainbows or in soulful connection with another. Shine on Milli! Thanks for blessing our world – Coral x

Ancient Irish Blessings on Death
Written by John O Donaghue (An Irish poet himself departed)
“I pray that you will have the blessing
Of being consoled and sure about your death.
May you know in your soul
There is no need to be afraid.
When your time comes, may you have
Every blessing and strength you need.
May there be a beautiful welcome for you
In the home you are going to.
You are not going somewhere strange,
Merely back to the home you have never left.
May you see the reflection of your life’s kindness and beauty
In all the tears that fall for you.
May your spirit feel
The surge of true delight
When the veil of the visible
Is raised, and you glimpse again
The living faces
Of departed family and friends before you.
May there be some beautiful surprise
Waiting for you inside death,
Something you never knew or felt,
Which with one simple touch
Absolves you of all loneliness and loss,
As you quicken within the embrace
For which your soul was eternally made.
May your heart be speechless
At the sight of the truth
Of all your belief had hoped,
Your heart breathless
In the light and lightness
Where each and every thing
Is at last its true self
Within that serene belonging
That dwells beside us
On the other side
Of what we see.
May your going be sheltered
And your welcome assured.
May your soul smile
In the embrace
Of your *Anam Cara your ‘Soul Mate’
Remembering Milli 2010
There’s something missing
Your affirmations of abundance ..Milli O’Nair
The oval wooden bowl filled with sprouts and grated beetroot for our shared meals
The way you raged as we sat on the highest sand dune at Tyagarrah about the latest boyfriend breaking yet another contract you both had made
That basket, full of great NVC games and the odd wand or three
Your coo-ee as you neared my door
Your understanding and insights as I spilled my latest heart woes
The way you cut your fingernails straight across ..the last part I saw of you was your hand
The plans we made for community – all of us together in perfect understanding and openness
Your boobs bursting into that turquoise and gold Abundance t-shirt
The long phone calls when you weren’t nearby sharing what was up
The howls and tears you cried, tissues mounting by your side, and then that long “ahhh glad I got that out”
Your pain, your humour, your intensity, your love
There’s something missing Milli
You
