Beautiful Lynn. Thank you for sharing. And do you know what I hear?

"I'm here Mom, I'm right here." Honestly, I do

Lynn, that was really beautiful. George Anderson is also a near death experiencer, many do not know that.

What I have found is after honestly researching people who can "see a person in spirit" is coming from, that many are very rooted in pointing to God, the Creator. George Anderson, James Van Praagh and John Edward are all Catholic.

These are words George Anderson had on facebook today

Every once in a while a client will come along and ask a question that makes me look back at my life of listening to the souls, and brings me to such an incredible place of understanding of not only bereavement, but of the very essence of faith and hope. I was asked a rather simple question: “What were the most beautiful words you’ve ever heard from the souls?” I had to think about it-- but the answer was spoken to me before I could even think of it, and it rang in my head and caused me to go backward through nearly 50 years of communication like an epic movie in the space of a few seconds. I realized the woman was still in front of me and waiting for an answer, so I told her--”They’re the three most simple words ever spoken.”

No, not those words--“I love you” is far too easy. These three simple words are so profound and important to the souls that they have the power to change everything we thought about the loss of our loved ones and our need to find hope. I thought back to the hundreds and perhaps thousands of times they have been said by the souls, and how poignant and beautiful they really are. The words are these: 
“I was there.”

“I was there when you got the awful call. I was there when the police came to the door grim faced, and you felt as if all the air was punched out of you. I was there beside the wreck, and I was there when you found me. I was there when you were asked my name and age, and for a minute you couldn’t even think of my age. I was there when you had to identify me and I was there when you tried not to scream when they warned you to brace yourself."

“I was there when the seconds felt like hours, and I was there when people babbled incoherently about “God’s will.” I was there when you picked my favorite suit and I was there when you pulled out my prom dress. I was there when the funeral director knew he’d lost your attention, and I was there when the pastor tried to gather information for a eulogy. I was there when you couldn’t find the will to close my casket, and I was there when you had to say goodbye to my physical body.”

“I was there when everyone was gone and the house was so still. I was there when you watched the clock all night, and I was there when you saw the sun rise and wondered how you could continue living. I was there when nothing and nobody mattered to you anymore, and I was there when you bargained with God for just a small sign from me. I was there when you started finding your faith again, and I was there when you made the decision to continue living for me.”

Thank you for the reminder Dick. 

During the first year a girl from my son's job called me and told me how she went to see a medium.  She said she didn't want to upset me but was told the message was for me and so she was passing it along.  I did understand everything she told me so of course I become curious. I waited but went to see her myself.  First thing she asked me was "Who's Michael" of course I was immediately freaked out.  then her next question was where is the necklace you wear.  I have a photo charm that I took off before arriving.  Again I was freaked out.

I haven't returned since then and not sure I'm going to.  I just believe in my faith and I believe God will allow me to see, hear, smell and feel my Michael when he knows I'm ready.  The gifts I find I believe God allows Michael to leave them for me.   

I know for some they lost their faith but for me it has grown stronger.  God would not abandoned me now. 

3 months after Michael left I had one dream that seemed like only 2 seconds. I was standing on a pavement with a group of people and all at once for whatever reason they all turned away.  At that moment a black car came driving by with Michael as the driver. He had a big smile and was holding up the peace sign.  I quickly started to scream "I saw Michael" but woke up as I was screaming it.  Nothing since then but it's okay cause I know when I'm able to handle it God will send him to me again.

I don't recommend a medium, remember the story of Saul and David? Saul sought out the prophet through a medium and lost his kingship to David. Please take care.

Just a heads up, Compassionate Friends, will be having their worldwide Candle Lighting Vigil for all children that have left. Google for the closest to you if you want to light a candle for your child. It will be this Sunday at 7 pm in your time zone.

Linda, my momma died a couple of years ago, and I did not dream of her for a while....I do not really believe I could have lived thru them in the first months. The reality of my loss, of my grief, was just too new. By the time I did dream of her, I could face her and not cry. I am not sure if this is something that others would experience--it is the way it happened with me. I did not dream of her for a year or more, and then when I did--I dreamed of giving her a perm! In the last 20 years, I had lived far enough away that I was lucky to see her a couple of times a year. When I did see her, I would almost always give her a perm! In recent times it was just too costly for her to pay someone else to do it. Those times where the times we spent together, one on one. We talked, we laughed, we listened to old country songs. She loved T G Sheppard! I guess those were our best times together, once I was an adult. By the time I dreamed about her, I still woke up crying but I could also really appreciate that I had been able to spend those moments with her again.

Now with Aaron, I am not I do not know how long it will be till I dream of him. My subconscious will protect me, I am sure. When I am ready, he will be there for me, just as he is in my heart every day. I do look forward to it, for I long to be with him more than anything. I am sure others would agree with me--this is the first time another person died and I wished to God it had been me!

Maria: I lost Desiree' in March of this year. I've since celebrated her birthday on Oct. 1st. and now the Holidays to come. She turned 32 this Oct.  I try so very hard to make it a "celebration of life", but, try as I may I find myself mourning my loss. After seeing the Dr. Phil show I'm not so sure I won't seek some sort of alternate views. I'm so desperate to see her.

Oh Leslie. I pray for the day I dream of my Desiree'. I can't understand why I haven't been Blessed with this as yet. I try nightly to will myself to think of her in the hopes that I will have the wonderful moment, if only in a dream, to hear her or see her oh for only the moment. Oh for the blessed moment.
