Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same that it ever was. There is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner. Harry Scott Holland — Canon of St. She had been unconscious for 72 hours before passing. At least this is what doctors and nurses clinically thought. But Wilma told her husband, A. When death of the physical body occurred, said Wilma, she had blacked out, and when she returned to consciousness, she found herself in what appeared to be an almost endless hospital ward with rows of occupied beds and white-attired attendants.
Her first thoughts were that A. Then, for the first time, the thought struck her: As Wilma became more and more aware of her surroundings, which seemed to be as real and substantial as her earth existence had been, she was almost overwhelmed by the emotional pull of A. As Wilma had these thoughts, she suddenly found herself in the Plimpton home in Oklahoma, and in the physical presence of A.
She followed him about the rest of the day, in his car, wherever he went, trying to embrace him, to comfort him, to catch his attention in one way or another—and her fruitless efforts continued until night when A. It was then that Wilma intercepted his thought and sensed that he was contemplating suicide, since he felt he could not go on without her.
He bought it on impulse, wondering skeptically if he could have been wrong, if there could be a form of continuing life after death. In any event, he decided that he would see what this writer had to say. I, of course, was the author of this book. When he came to the last page, he saw a letter from me wherein I invited all who had had psychic experiences to write me a report of them, in care of my ESP Research Associates Foundation in Little Rock, Arkansas.
We exchanged correspondence until the day that A. We spent the first hour getting acquainted. He told me he had spent the major part of his adult life in the production end of the oil business; that he had also owned a Flying Service in Florida, engaged in the selling of new and old planes, as well as helicopters. He had a magnificent Theatre Organ installed in his home but all the music had gone out of his life when Wilma had died and he sold the instrument and resolved he would never play again.
As I studied A.
He said that he wanted me to tell him all I could about different forms of research so he could decide how to go about it himself. If I thought there was a chance of his managing to communicate with Wilma, he was willing to devote day and night to it. When I learned that A. Before making his discovery public, however, he devoted four years to a careful and systematic experimentation, during which time he recorded some several thousand voices.
Konstantin Raudive, psychologist and author of a number of philosophical books, visited Jurgenson and together they made a number of successful recordings. Later, returned to his home on the edge of the Black Forest, in Germany, Dr. Gilbert Bonner, well known English researcher, made many thousands of recordings, quite a number of which were in extended dialogue of nearly 30 minutes duration. I challenge any parapsychologist to prove that these recordings are not paranormal.
These cannot be explained away by radio intrusion or noises mistaken for voices. In some cases, the age, sex and even the personality of the speaker are clearly identified. It is hardly likely that all these are psychokinesis. The voices speak in logical sentences of five to ten words at a time—call to a person by name—and identify themselves as people who previously lived on earth. They also reveal that they can SEE us and, at times, even display a knowledge of the future.
In their experimentation, they also recorded some thousands of voices, and received many messages in answer to questions which they carefully and systematically recorded for future checking and evaluation. Everyone is trying to reduce the volume of sound interference so the voices can come through with greater clarity. These investigators are checking with each other and exchanging helpful suggestions about methods they are using which have seemed to improve reception.

It really depends on their individual personalities, which are still the same as when they were alive physically. They also may have some reason for not wanting to communicate right now but may decide to do so at some point in the future. The best course of action, I think, is just not to give up. But one thing I want to share all of you my father passed away in Feb Since from When I was in Engineering college he was always coming in my dream and there was always death of my father in dream but now after his death he is not coming in my dream and no single sign from him.
I want to contact him, listen him, see him. I am very tense I want to meet my father and I also want he should take new Birth in my home want to contact such person who can listen him, see him. I know nothing is in my and his hand but still. My partner for thirteen years died two months ago. He actually died in my arms when I heard his last sigh, while we were strolling along the park. The official death, however, was several days later in the hospital due to the machines, which kept his body functioning. Right after I heard the official hour of death from the social worker, on that official day, I went back to the place where he actually died in my arms, to honor him with bouquet of flowers and send him my undying love.
Something wonderful happened that day, a hummingbird actually watched me throughout my stay there. Deep inside me I knew that he had something to do with the hummingbird because he loved nature, especially birds. He was a bird watcher at one time. My dad passed away in february , and I am still mourning over his death. We were so close that it hurts me everyday to think about him. Yesterday I cried in the arms of my husband , I begged if I could just have 1 more minute with my dad , it would be so wonderful.
I knew it would be possible since he is no longer with us , so I wiped my tears and we proceeded with Easter day with family yesterday. I threw the remote on the floor to prove to my mom that I had nothing to do with touching anything , and as soon as I threw it on the floor , it started switching channel.. I got so scared , I started to scream! The minute my husband entered the room, all of it stopped!! I have never been so scared in my life and mom the skeptic is my witness!! I believe my dad was sending me a message , letting me know that he is with me , and I believe he wanted me to know that!
Shelly, that is so great!! My dad passed away in June I believe it was his way of telling my sister to stay out of it…What do you think? My Gram, who raised me, and is my best friend passed away in October. I pray at night for her to still be watching over me, and to dream of her and remember it. Well, a couple of weeks ago, I was sleeping, and at about 4: I sat straight up in bed, and then remembered I was dreaming of my Gram and I standing in our kitchen, in front of her stove, just hugging and holding each other, and telling each other how much we love and miss each other! It was so comforting when I woke up, like she had just been there!
So, I got my prayer answered, because she called and woke me up, so I would remember, just like I asked. Well, yesterday I came home from work, and went upstairs and sat down on the bed. I keep our picture in a frame next to the bed, and each morning, I say good morning Gram and and I love you and look at the picture. When I came home, the picture was turned the exact opposite way! Was that a sign? Also, then the memory card I have had laying stright up for months next to her picture, had fallen down, that same night!
I have also had flickering lights in the dining room most times I turn them on. I do talk to her all the time, and actually hear her in my head at times too. I miss her so much! My Mom gets scared and says I am messing with things that are not good, but I am doing nothing except praying to God.
Please give me your thoughts. Melissa, based on my extensive experience communicating with my soul-buddy Jim, who signs me a couple a times a week, latest sign just yesterday, you are NOT crazy and you are doing exactly what you SHOULD be doing. The things that have been happening there are typical. Hi Shelly, Thanks really I am Waiting for that day when my father will communicate with me.
Very thanks for hopes. Four yrs ago me and my family had to deal with our house being haunted. It was a very unerving experience We managed to find a Medium who help us remove the unwanted spirit from our home. The Medium told us that it was me the spirit had attached itself to. Since then I have had a number of young women appearing to me during sleep none have been threatning some have called me by name. I normally do not believe in this stuff, but recently I had something happen that I cannot explain.
My father recently passed away suddenly from an aneurysm. I tried to get home, as at the time he felt ill, and my family was unsure what was going on I lived 5 hours away , but I could not make it in time. My father and I liked to scratch off lottery tickets, when I would come home to visit, he liked doing that, and I always bought a bunch whenever I would come home. When he died, after I came home from the hospital, I took the dime that he used to scratch the tickets, and I taped it up with black electrical tape so as to not mistake it for another dime , and kept it as a symbol of him, and to use anytime I would scratch off tickets, which I planned to do occassionally as my way of honoring the memory of spending time with him.
As I was about to leave I couldnt find the dime, and after looking everywhere, I found it stuck in my money roll. Fast forward to about 2 weeks later. I am back at my home in NJ, and I am scratching tickets off with my girlfriend. I put the dime in its smooth black tape , right on a book I had on the table. We got up from the table to do something. About a half hour later, I looked at the table and the dime was gone.
I asked my girlfriend if she saw it, and she said it was right on the table. Knowing how much that dime meant to me, we ripped the house apart searching for this dime, and it was never found. Now it is a month later. I am an eye doctor and I use the same exam room daily, so I know whats in it like the back of my hand.
One Saturday, I arrive at work, walk back to my exam room, happen to look down at the floor before even turning the light on, and what do I immediately see? It is the dime in the smooth black electrical tape. This just shows up a month later in a spot where I could not come up with any possible explanation how it got there. I tried and tried to find a logical reason, and I cant. There may as well be one, but I tend to want to believe that it was my father letting me know that he is ok, and laughing at my dumb ass, since I never got to say goodbye.
Your father put it there, no doubt about it. I would also say to expect more movements, and the reason I say that is because he will want to remove the doubt you now have in your mind and verify that it was indeed he who moved the dime. This kind of stuff happens to me all the time. I hope that someday I could see or communicate with my deceased brother in law.
He died in his sleep. All I do is cry, I am not sure if this was a sign from him or just a coincidence. Last week I asked him for some sort of sign to let me know that he is ok and that he really loved me. Does anyone think that was a sign from him? I can assure you it is a sign from him. It was meant just for you, and if you keep looking you will see other signs, too. I believe our relationship with someone that passes on does not end, it simply changes.
I hope time helps you through this tough trial. That was definitely, absolutely, and positively a sign from him. Thank you Susie and Jack for your response. I do have a question and please I am not here to be judged, just need some re-assurance. He had a family and I am wondering if its possioble for him to give me signs as well as his family. We were together for 8 years and I love him with all of ny heart. But as far as him giving signs to his family, my gut feeling is that would all depend on whatever efforts they put forth in trying to communicate with him. So if there is one person in his family who he was particularly close to, and if that person makes an effort to communicate with him, such as speaking with him in earnest and asking for a sign, then it might happen.
I just feel that the bond between the deceased and the living has to be very strong for communication to take place. Signs are something they would have to be open to, like you are. If they are open to it, they will see them. My sisters also get the signs. Their bond is very special, as they were married for 59 years, but he adored us girls, so he comes to us, too because he knows which of us are open to it. The signs for the family will just be different. Dana, the night before my father died at Incidentally, you can ask him for signs, but you should also look for them, too.
If your relationship is as close as it sounds, most definitely he will want you to know he made it there okay. I hope that time heals your sadness, Dana. I was just reading what you wrote to Dana where you told her to look for signs. One of my girlfriends told me to stop looking for signs and if they are going to happen they will. This morning I googled my boyfriends name he passed 3 weeks ago and there was an article about his passing with the organization he belonged to and there was also a picture of him looking back over his shoulder smiling.
I took that as another sign from him to let me know he is ok and is happy. Am I looking into things? He has given me signs before through music. Before you go to sleep, ask for a sign. You might get it in a dream, but more likely you will get it through music,or in other ways within a few days. Your Google search of his name, etc. Please keep us updated if you get more signs from him. Thank you for asking for my input. I loved him so much. He posted poems on his website. I could not understand them. I really have to communicate with him. Please e-mail me if u can so that i can give u his url.
This is his website address. Its one month ago today that I lost the love of my life. He is on my mind every waking minute od the day, yet I dont dream about him. Yesterday, I spoke to a friend that i hav3 not seen in age. I dream about her last night, why? Katie, if you were only 6 when your father passed, it might be hard for you to recognize signs from him. You could talk to people in the family who knew him well, and see if they get any signs from him, so you can look for the same type of thing.
Good luck to you. I would like to confirm something that Susie said on June 2 regarding signs, and it is that one must ASK for a signs in order to get one. The logic is quite simple: Unless the deceased knows that the living will be expecting a sign, what assurance do they have that their sign will not be interpreted as just a malfunctioning TV or light switch? So I agree with Susie that no sign will occur unless you ask for one. For 3 years I have been engaged in a spirited dialog with a deceased buddy of mine named Jim, who in that time has left at least 4 or 5 dozen signs.
My house is now a showcase of his signs all over the place, things he moved into bizarre locations, it amazes everyone. But almost every one of those signs occurred in response to something I said or asked about. Jim never leaves a sign just for the heck of it. So if you truly want to communicate with your loved one, please ask him or her for a sign. Otherwise, it is unlikely that anything will happen. Jack, thanks for your great explanation! You must ask for those signs.
I had one 2 days ago. Inside the bag with the game was the headset I had been looking for! It will happen, but you have to ask just like you would if they were here and it is so worth it, too! A couple days after her death I had a dream she was back home and she was completley fine, but then she turned into a zombie. I believe that was just because the morgue was taking forever to cremate her. She died of a liver disease that starts with an H and sounds weird, she also died of chronic pancreatitis. She was in so much pain the last few years. Could her being in my dreams and being completly fine be her way of letting me know that shes okay?
Susie, thanks for the support. Finally, I find someone who is on the same page! Okay, then say it now! Your rapid-fire response from your dad on the headset proves it, just as Jim proves it to me all the time. Thanks for giving me the chance to get that out. She was 78 when she passed and has major spinal surgery at 75 and was in and out of hospital with a few other things but she always kept going with a smile and then 1 morning she passed away.
I have had dreams of her but I cant quite think if they were possibly her trying to contact me? Is it at all possible to get signs or feelings from wildlife? I know it sounds odd but birds generally fly off when in close proximity to jumans and as i was walking back from visiting my nans grave a bird in the hedgerow just looked at me and didnt fly off…. My mom just died in 9 days after her birthday. Hello, I lost my beautiful mother 9 months, 6 days ago and today 2: I receive signs from my mother all the time. It was my mother.
Especially, signing birds in the middle of the night, some warning signs, some caution signs but most definetly birds. I have this heart warming feeling knowing that mom and I have a way to communicate in some sorts. I just wished I spoke bird talk. I am witness to energectic force communication such as lights flickering, light bulbs exploding only when unwanted boyfriend enters room with me hehe, lol. I never asked my mother for money even though I needed it, but mom knew obviously knew when I needed it, cuz there her hand was handing it out.
My friend Arianna died 4 years ago. We grew up together. I am 15 now. She died because she got hit by a car going 50 mph. On Thursday I broke down in tears because of how much I missed her. I never really talk about this to anyone though. On Friday night, I had a terrible dream about her.
In the dream, Everything played over exactly how she died. After, we were looking through pictures and old videos of her. She was always very religious and always talked about god. She was 7 years old when she died. This dream felt so real and it scared me. Anyways, on Thursday night, I recently got news that one of the neibor girls died because of getting hit by a car. The same night I felt really awful about ariannas death. Like I said, I never really talk about her or really think about her because it hurts. Was this Ariannas way of warning me about something?
Was a spirit trying to contact me at all? My 21 years old nefew died four years ago at this young age because of drugs. Ever since my sister has ceased to answer my phone calls, and even my emails. She is distraught and she has accused me that I mentioned the name of John Edward as a possible medium. How can I find something to tell her, from beyond, to assure her that her son is not entirely dead over there?
Can somebody help me? She used to be a believer, a Christian, but she has lost her belief in any god. My boyfriend died 8 months ago, when he was alive he would bring some of his favorite things to eat or drink and put it in my fridge. Just when I completed the task of cleaning out the fridge and I stood up a light that i did not turn on in the living room was on. I wonder if he was mad at me for throwing all of his items out.
Marilyn, I doubt that your boyfriend was mad at you. If anything, he is probably happy that you have begun to let some things go. In the very same bag, I found the headset. Take it and get some use out of it. There are no bad signs. They live in a world full of love, so any contact with the living is positive and meant to be helpful. There is no hatred, no revenge, no resentment. Material possessions become meaningless the minute we leave this world, and so he only cares about you, not his things.
Our company recently signed on a year old Estate of a very famous composer. An astrologer had told me a few years ago that I had a strong male spirit guide. At the time, when I asked who that might be, I was told that the person was famous but had never been recognized as such. This year I met the heir to the Estate in a very unusual manner, the families intuit said that I was the one that the composer would speak through.
I am uncomfortable with speaking to the deceased, as what the instruction given us by them to be followed, is often times totally misleading. Although, this composer has given me instruction to follow in order to get his name and his legacy respected in the society as it should be. The heir who is his daughter helps me figure out what the hell he is telling me to do on his behalf.
This instruction, has to do with bringing attention to his Estate and his year old volume of work. I am frustrated has our company has taken on a client based on some sort of guide direction. Each move that this composer has had me make on his behalf in this world, has been on point but no money. I am desperately trying to figure out how to get a society such as ours, with its limitations and various prejudices to now recognize someone whose music is not only advanced and current but to get people to buy it.
This is very frustrating as this is a way that w make our money, although it is directed by a deceased spirit? I wonder if sometimes I am jumping to conclusions when I think that when something happens that its a sign from my boyfriemd. He passed away suddenly 7 weeks ago and I have gotten a few signs from him but I am questioning what happened this morning. I was laying in bed talking out loud to him sauying I love you Paul and I always will, my life will never be the same without you in it and I wonder if it was me that passed would you feel the same?
I would appreciate honest opinions please. My boyfriend passed away 7 weeks ago. I have been getting some signs from him which I know for a fact they were not coincedences. This morning I am not sure if it was a sign or if I am just jumping to conclusions. As I was laying in bed awake I spoke out loud to him and told him that I love him and my life will never ever be the same without him in it and I said I wonder if it was me that passed if you would cry for me every day and feel the sorrow that I am feeling.
What are the chances that that was a sign for him or am I just grasping at straws now hoping for signs? My ex who passed away several years a go comes by once in a while just as I am waking and tells me I will always be his Princess and sweetheart and the he will be there when I pass at first it was a bit unnerving but now I have come to like it…. My partner recently died we still dnt know what happened but it was sudden and a complete shock. I never got to meet my biological father. My mother divorced him when I was 2.
I have few memories of him. My brother got to meet him when he my brother was stationed near him after he came back from Viet Nam. Once he tried to find me but I was at the movies and missed him. I got his address and wrote him three long letters when I was For years I kept a picture of him holding me when I was a baby on my dresser. I am now Many times I have tried to find him over the years by searching for him on the internet, but no luck. I am now 60 and today when searching my family history I know very little I found out he died 23 years ago.
I want to try to reach him. Where can I start? In the past I had pyschic abilities but I have surpressed them and they are not as strong as they once were. My boyfriend passed away a year ago from cancer. I sometimes have doubts about moving on and I talk to the deceased bf at the gravesite. I ask him to please guide me in what to do with the new guy. He was a very unselfish person. I live alone now, in a place he never had been. My life is very different now, and that bothers me. In my new place, a candle holder keeps moving. I fix it, and a few weeks later I notice it has moved again.
I guess I want to know could this be a sign from him? And how do I interpret signs now that I am open to them? I told his bestfriend about these dream and he swore on his life that he has had exactly the same dream. I lost my fiancee this past February of a massive heart attack. Since his death he has communicated with me through all sorts of electrical lights, phones, fans, tvs and the smell of cigarette smoke in my home.
It is still very devasting and hard to understand that physically Michael is no longer with me but I became concerned that because I miss him so much I may be keeping him from his growth to move foward in the spiritual plane. I do not want this to be the case. I love him deeply and miss him beyond words and I hear him telling me to move foward in my life here without him and that he will always still be with me.
My question to you and my concern is if you miss someone so much because of the love you have for them am I preventng Michael from moving foward. I do not want to do that at all, I want him to grow in the light and love that he is in now but I am worried that by me missing him so much and asking why he left me over and over could prevent him from doing so.
We had such a special bond and love that I do not want to hurt him or prevent him from his growth and studies now,. My daughter of 5 months died of SIDS in We decided that the butterfly would be our way to include her physically in our daily lives. Anytime we talk about or visit her grave, butterflies show up.
I know its her way of letting us know she is there because most times these butterflies will either land on us or very close to us or even just keep flying around our heads. ANY time I am driving or around a radio and I am thinking of her or telling her story, the song comes on. Those are just a couple instances. There are many more. After reading this article, I told her to go fulfil her destiny.
I pray she heard me and as much as I loved seeing signs that she was with me, I hope to never see them again if that is what is best for her. The comment from Jennifer was not only beautiful but it made me cry because of how it touched me so deeply. I did not intend anyone to interpret their grief as being selfish and when someone you love crosses over we the ones left behind suffer the most because we have so many questions left unanswered and our love is forever a bond than cannot be broken. My selfishness in asking over and over why did you leave me is.
The signs that we will continue to receive are not us holding them back it is our loved ones helping us understand that they are still with us and always will be and they too are trying to comfort us and ease our pain as we are left behind in the moment until we meet again. I am so sure now that your little girl and Michael can peacefully move on to their destiny but, I am also sure that they will always be with us and remind us from time to time they are still right by our side.
On April 5, my mother passed away from cancer. This was 5 months to the day following surgery for cancer that she passed away. On the morning of April 5 I received a call from my dad saying that mom took a turn for the worst at approximately 6: He said that it was only a matter of time before she left us. They were on Vancouver Island in the hospital in Nanaimo B. I immediately shot out of bed and got ready to travel to the B. Ferry trying to get to my mom before she moved on. I arrived at She was in a heavy sleep and did not move. Her bowels had ruptured and she was septic and slowly dying of poison.
She was too week for surgery. I was so shocked to see her in this way. As time went on and friends and family were coming into her room to say their good byes, I sat with her every moment I had. I held her hand and reminisced about our life together. I kept telling her to rest but I could no tell her that is was ok to leave us.
She was asleep the whole time I did this but I kept on talking to her. Rhonda and I had been friends since childhood and my mother adored her. We both stood beside mom. Rhonda was holding her hand and I was rubbing her hair back off of her forehead. I told her that we would all look after our dad and that her time to leave her pain and suffering behind was now. She opened her eyes and turned her head towards me and she looked me straight in the eyes. Rhonda ran to grab the family and I started to speak to mom.
I thought she had woken up from her drug induced coma. We looked at each other for about 10 seconds and then I saw the life leave her eyes and she was gone. I was shocked and scared and sad. Then I felt blessed that she chose to leave this physical plane and move on while in my presence. It was her final gift to me.
By the time that everyone ran into her room, she was gone. She left our physical plane at 3: She always new that I was a very spiritual person and she gave Rhonda and I one more amazing experience to share in life. I miss her terribly but I do see her in my dreams from time to time and I feel her with me on some days. I have always had the pleasure of being able to visit with my loved ones past, in my dreams. I will share my dreams in another post because they are truly amazing and I just love to share my spiritual experiences with those who appreciate it.
In my experience, a soul can be off in the afterlife, on the next stage of their evolution and at the same time they can be with us in spirit, in a flash. In the afterlife, you can be in more than one place at once. And that is the choice of the soul. When a soul does choose to keep a part of themselves with us for a while, especially after death, it is probably a testament perhaps to the depth of the relationship and love.
Like a past life regression, except regressing the person to between their physical incarnations on Earth. Yet the souls are still able to be in the spirit world at the same time to greet their loved ones after their death. What I am saying is that the soul, unlike the body, can be in multiple places at once. It may have a major assignment doing something in particular like an incarnation, or something in the afterlife , but it can still be in other places.
Both are sold on Amazon. Erin, I lost my sister to cancer and it was expected, and lost my father to a sudden heart attack on June 6, To me, the manner of passing has a lot to do with the type of grief you are experiencing. As it has been nearly a year for you, hopefully some of these images will become less vivid. When you start to see those images that make you upset,turn your thoughts to a different direction. You have a lot to go through here, and the healing process will happen with time; I watched my own parents suffer the loss of a child and it is very different. However, if you do not feel as if you are able to carry on, it may be best to consult a grief therapist or get an antidepressant.
I know that when a child dies it is totally different, but it sounds as if you did whatever you could at the time and should have no regrets. Thank you so much for your kind words, inspiration and explaining a lot more to me to understand what I so much want to comphrehend in total. All of these books have been small steps to helping me heal and understand so I sincerely appreciate any further books you can recommend as well and Jack was right it was extremely well said. I struggle everyday with answers as to why this had to be as I am sure you continue to do so but, as hard as it may feel in your heart you must find the strength within yourself to know that your little girl does not want to see you continue with such pain in this way.
Your children find the funny things and happy times to bring them joy in keeping her memory and their love for her always with them so in a sense your children are showing you ways in helping you to cope and find peace within yourself so you can heal little by little. Your little ones can make amazing things happen and their innocense can show you too that even though it will not be as it was it can still be a loving and beautiful family with all its memories and grace to continue to move forward in life.
So you see you are still so very blessed and this is what you need to embrace and gather strength from in order find the peace that you need to balance inside your heart and mind and turn what you find so hard to accept into a new way of understanding. After studying this kind of communication for several years, as a true student of the metaphysical, I believe this to be authentic afterlife communication:. Could my husband be trying to contact me through my computer? He hated the computer and would have nothing to do with it. Yet, since he died, he seems to be using it to comfort me.
I have about 45 photos on a slide show and amongst them are only six of him. Often when I am distressed I pass by my office door and find his image on the screen. Even when my computer has gone into sleep mode, after 30 minutes, I sometimes find that my anti-virus has kicked in and woken it up and there is a photo of my husband.
He is most definitely trying to get your attention. My darling friend from Ireland who had been my constant online companion for a year and a half died suddenly last week. He was a devout music lover and knew that I lived for traditional Irish music. The day that I learned of his death, I came upstairs from grieving with a friend to use my IPAD to see what had been posted about him on facebook.
It was playing the most obnoxiously almost offensively cheerful Irish tune I had ever heard. I had not double clicked on the IPOD app or chosen a tune.
Jeanie had no idea who he was and was half dazed. This lasted maybe 10 seconds, and then I read the top of the page. I always feel a pain in my hart. As a protection, Sherman and others recommend insulating oneself with a barrier of love, light and harmony to prevent invasion. But I am also aware that there are legitimate communications from real people. Are you talking about deceased spirits who have just passed or other spirits, like guides?
The music went off without my intervention in any way. I knew it was my friend. I told him I was happy that he was so cheerful… because of course he would be… the afterlife is really fantastic… but I was not yet in the mood to celebrate.
It was so thoughtful of him…and I thought very skillful. Some nice powers he had already acquired in the spirit world. I hope he messages me again… but I rather think he has moved on to his next stage. If any one has something to make me feel better please do i could use a friend about now i do not have any family her in Ontario Canada. Elliott, I am never sure why people tell us to wait to try and contact our loved ones, but I can tell you from my own experience — no time like the present.
I think some people feel that because our loved ones are new to the spirit world, it will be confusing to them, but my father contacted me the night he died — hours after by tapping me on the shoulder when I was grieving for him. You need to do what makes you get through this; if talking to her helps, do that.
Try meditation, too, and invite communication. They want to talk to us. Marital and family love transcend death; your relationship has changed with your wife, not ended. Have faith and take care of yourself during this difficult time. Thank you so very much from my hart for the reply!
I wish the world was more full of king and caring people like your self and the people on this website god bless you all! It has only been one month she passed i feel like a wound up toy my emotions are all over the place i know it was not her time i think i might know what happened she was a little off for about a week my lan lord noticed it in here but i did not?
I think it relaxed her to much and she must have rolled over and fell a sleep in her pillow because the next morning shocked i was!
I talk out loud to here to give me a sign if that is what happened, i have been putting a lot on myself that i may have prevented this because i would check on here every night when i herd her breathing funny i would wake her up and make sure she was on her side and prop her up a bit but that night i did not and i cant handle the fact i might have been able to prevent what happened. I don,t want to hold her spirit back from going where it has to go i want to tell her its ok but please come and visit and stay with me until me meet again if there allowed to do that, there must be rules in gods house and places for every one and every type of death!
Elliott, It sounds to me as if you are entering another phase of grief. You will get past this, too, but give yourself a break, too. I lost my sister 13 years ago to cancer and my dad in Juen to an unexpected heart attack, and the grief was very different. I do not believe that we here in this plane can hold a spirit back; this is a person who loved you and wants you to be okay. Take your time; you will be surprised that in a few more months, it will be a little bit easier and so forth.
Take care of yourself. My mother passed away in march , since then ive been having dreams of her in the most weird way im always dreaming of something and then my dreams get interupted and i see her for a short moment either she is trying to tell me something or she is just hugging me.. I lost my husband of 23 years in from a heart attack. Next morning he had changed his mind and said he should get checked out. I took him to the hospital.

His symptoms were mild, so he and I thought it was some other issue, and that he would later be going home. That never happened and I learned that he had had diabetes and never knew, so that masked his symptoms. I want to know that he does not blame me and that he is okay. There have been a few odd happenings here since his death.
One time the washer turned itself on and rewashed a load of clothes that had finished washing hours earlier. Right after his passing, I started to find dimes everywhere. The last one I found was in what was our room. It was in a ring box and it had been pinned to the cushion on the bottom. Who does that and why? It happened to be of the year when we met.
That box had sat in that room for years. I had believed it was empty since it was light and would not make any sound when I shook it. He wa not a sentimental man, so to believe that he had it made for a keepsake would be very far fetched. I will keep it forever. Anyway, I would love to communicate with him and know he is near me always.
I am encouraged by what I read here. I do have a few questions. Can anyone share similar experiences or advice? One week after my Mom was buried I awoke during a thunderstorm to see a shadowy form by my bed. She appeared in a black velvet robe with lace collar. This was to have been her burial outfit. But because the disease wreaked such damage to her body, she was creamated instead. I still treasure and keep that robe in my closet. Two weeks after my Mom was buried I experienced vivid dreams that were full of confusing images. In one dream we were wandering in a city filled with wealthy people who were ignoring a homeless man who looked very much like Jesus.
My Mother hurried me into a car where we hid. The next dream my Mom looked so sad, so broken yet there she was telling me how much she cared about me. After this I had memories of all the negative things that had happened to us. Eventually I realized the challenges were part of our spiritual training and she had played her role well. I have since told her that I love her and ask her forgiveness for sending her away. But I want her to enter the realm of unbounded love and light.
I hope Jack is still monitoring these messages; this is a direct reply to some thoughts he projected in earlier posts. When you say that your friend appeared to you or others as a 22 y. At this moment in time he is that same non-solid energy actually, physicists will tell you there is no such thing as a solid…that table you just rapped your knuckles on is made up of uncountable MOVING molecules.
What is just is. Though I do believe in communication across the divide there are just far too many legitimate stories to convince me otherwise , I think we experience it very personally because that is how we perceive it in this plane and familiarly because otherwise there would be no purpose in the communication. I agree with your core belief that everything that exists is energy. The only thing differentiating our physical world from consciousness is the rate of vibration.
You are also correct that, like all other spirits hanging our earth plane, my buddy Jim has no physical form when he is here.
I think it goes without saying that, we do not possess any visible appearance in the spiritual world except when interacting with others, as a means of giving ourselves a proper identity. And yes, we change our appearance according to the person. Jim died at age 44, but we last lay eyes on one other at age But when I do see him I believe we will appear to one another as 22 year olds in a simulation of our present world—all the positive without any of the negative.
At first, and for as long as we ourselves determine, our new world will be a clone of this one except but infinitely better. Regarding human emotions—-regret, sadness, embarrassment, shame, etc. All mediums assure us that higher animals do survive physical death, although not all animals survive as individual identities but rather merge to a kind of group consciousness. However, we are assured that deceased pets do remain loyal to their masters and are cared for by a deceased loved one of ours until we join them.
I have some personal experience to vouch for the validity of this, as my pet lovebird Yulli died a few months ago. So that was a sure sign from Jim that he had the bird. My parents both died back in 6 months apart from eachother. But since they have passed on I have not had one dream about either one of them. My grandfather passed away in I was very close with him. One night I was in bed. This must have been a couple of months after his death.
The room was dark and I woke up. His presence glowed, though I could not make out distinct features. Somehow he communicated to me without directly speaking…. All i can recall him telling me is that he was okay, and that I would be okay too…. I went to a psychic a couple years ago and was told he was with me and he is proud of me. I do believe he is with me and I talk to him all the time. I miss him like I did 20 years ago. I wonder if we have a strong spiritual connection, since no one else in my family received a visit from him.
Perhaps they were not as open to it as I was?? Jack, I am really curious to know your thoughts about dimes and any correlation between them and those that have passed on. Also from what I posted there, do you believe my late husband is near me? I even check, and my mother is still asleep when this happens. Anyway, thanks to all of you for posting some very interesting comments, and to you Jack, for allowing us a venue to share our experiences. Hello, My father passed away August 26, His loving wife mom of 67 years went home with a ride from a family friend around 3: He seemed to slip off into a morphine-induced sleep.
I will never forget how awesome that moment was. Dad and I were unusually close. I am an only child born after they were married 25 years. Dad and I always had an understanding between us. Over the years, I moved to Florida and things dwindled between us to a few phone calls a week. His sense of humor was great, and he accepted death without issue.
His sense of humor never faltered. I told dad I would be right back, to hang tight, and I slipped out of the room to regain myself. It was about 9: I wanted to be there for him through that. Could he have known that I slipped out the door? I had 2 doctors come in and pronounce him dead. I knew I had to get home to my mother, who was beyond devastation and was waiting for me. I always asked him for a sign before he died… that if he could find a way, to show me there was something else after life…..
The only sign I have gotten is a dream I had last year. In it, we were in the home I grew up in that we spent most of my life in. Dad had that house built for us. I was standing upstairs in the hallway. There was a thunderstorm outside — lightning, etc. The house appeared ominous. It also appeared empty. Do I just want to believe it was dad? Was it just my subconscious missing him? Now I am no expert but I absolutely believe our loved ones pick the time to leave us. I belive they pick their time for various reasons. I lost my mother to cancer two years ago this coming April.
I received a telephone call from my dad that she had turn ceptic and she was too weak for surgery and that I better get over to the Island as quickly as possible. Upon my arrival I was devistated to find out that they had put her into a drug induced coma. It was necessary so she would not feel any pain and for that I was grateful. She was non-responsive to me so all I could do was sit beside her bed, hold her hand and tell her how much she meant to me and that I loved her so much.
I talked about the past and I laughed about things and just hoped that she could hear me. The only time I left her side was when other people wanted a moment with her and even then I sometimes did not leave I just stood to the side of the room. For the next couple of hours I could only sit and talk to her and say go rest mom. Its ok to rest. I could not tell her to leave because looking back I was not ready to let her go. Selfish I know but I could not say the words…its ok to leave mom. Those words were right there but they would not come out. Finally, my best friend Rhonda showed up.
When they left her room I took Rhonda in to say goodbye to mom. Rhonda and I have known each other since kids. We were standing there beside her. Rhonda holding her hand and I stroking her head. I told mom at that moment that it was ok to leave now. I dont know if Rhonda being there gave me the courage or what but it came out. I told her that I would take care of my dad and everyone else that needed my help and that she could leave now.
No sooner did I get those words out that she suddenly became restless and turned her head towards me and opened her eyes. She looked right at me. Rhonda ran from the room saying she would get my family as we thought she had come out of her drug induced coma. I was talking to her. She just looked at me for about 10 seconds. She held my eyes to hers and then I saw the light leave her eyes. As everyone came running back into her room she was gone.
I believe she waited until I told I would take care of everything and that she could leave now. It happened so quickly. At first I was devisated and then I felt honored that she chose to leave with only Rhonda and I in her room. She gave us just one more experience to share in life. It was so sad and amazing all at once. She has visited me several times since she left but not nearly as much as in the first few months.
She worked on the pallitive ward of the hospital and she told me that she recalled a lady that had been checked in to her ward and as she was taking care of her and before her kids had arrived, she told my friend to make sure that when her time came that her kids were not in her room. She said that she did not want to die in front of them. So when her daughter arrive her mother was in a coma as well and the daughter would not leave the room.
She was waiting for her brother to arrive. So she got up and asked my friend to stay with her mother until she got back. So away she went to the nurses station to take the call and while she was out of the room her mother opened her eyes and looked at my friend and chose that moment to leave. The daughter was devistated that she was not there when it happened and my friend new that her mother wanted it that way and told her at that time what her mother had requested.
So yes, I believe our loved ones choose their time for various reasons. That being either not wanting to leave in the presence of some or waiting to until that one person shows up or they wait until they have been given permission to leave.
