Do You Believe?


My mom finally passed yesterday. When I did my card reading for the day the first card I drew was the Death card. No question about what it signified.

As one who communicates with the other side I expected her visit but not so soon. Mom was a tiny person with a huge appetite. I have little appetite and really don’t enjoy food that much. Last night I was driving home and was overcome with crazy hunger. I stopped for a pizza and ate it along with cookies and candy. I seldom eat these things a let alone together. I knew it was Mom. This morning I was in the kitchen getting a slice of banana bread and was overcome with mom’s feelings of peace and a love that she never could express in life (she had issues in this area). Then I ate a second piece of banana bread and enjoyed it as I have not enjoyed food in a long time.

Ok – off to the gym to try to work some of this off. I still have a physical body that can’t take this much food. When I got home my phone was going crazy. The screen light kept going on and off and nothing I did would get it to stop. My youngest texted me about going to MA with me for Mom’s memorial. The text came through but I could not return it because the keyboard (I insist on a physical one) would not work. The voice function still worked so I ended up calling her. She could not find a flight in her price range so I said I would make up the difference for her. Then my other called me. I spoke to her for a while. She wanted to go too but has even less money than the first . I decided what the hell; I’d just pay for all of us. I really did not think they would want to go along or could disrupt their families (they both have small ). I went on the computer to book our tickets and found that the airline I usually use had a special fare that was not there last night when I was searching for one for me. I got all 3 of our tickets for little more than the one I found last night. As soon as I did that my phone stopped going crazy. OK mom – I took care of things and we’re all coming.

Then as a final sign the TV just turned off by itself. I was alone and sitting on the other side of the room. I got up and turned it back on – no problems with it at all it just turned off.

Things are settled for the trip and all electronics are stable. I know Mom will visit me again. My father, grandmothers and husband do often, but I hope she figures out I don’t need such dramatic signs. A visitation dream or feeling will do.

Chuck, the engineer and agnostic witnessed all of this and can only say that he has no logic explanation for any of it. You just can't explain love and and how survives physical exsistance.

So sorry for your loss but am happy your Mom is making her presence known to you. My son has done much the same over the past 8 years. When we visited a medium he knew about the electronic happenings right away...we never mentioned anything about them and actually brushed them out of our thoughts as coincidence. It was shocking to us that he could tell us about them...reassuring but shocking no less!

So glad all worked out so well for the 3 of you to attend together. HUGS.....RED

Thank you. I would nothave minded if you posted. I wasn't going to share primarily becasue I find it difficult to share only bad news but all of the experiences gave me a positive twist that I could add.

Thank you. Trip should be fine. It's one of the best routing's I have had in a few trips. Mom and the sister she lived with are located in a smaller place with no direct air access.

Thank you. Amazing how in our early years it was the emotional strength we needed. Now, as an old "war horse" I find it is the physical strength and energy I have to pray for. It will be there though as I always have what I need. Usually not a bit more but what I need.

Thank you. This was not my first experience with the electrical disturbances. I just didn't expect it so soon or so strong but my mother was one who always made her point and it looks as if she wanted me to bring my daughters with me.

Thank you for the good wishes. Mom is doing well on her journey. I think becasue her passing was so slow she did most of her work before the finale.

I am glad you also have these experiences. It is reassuring to know that our loved ones are never really gone, that family connections are eternal.

Yes, I am happy to have my daughters with me. I have not traveled with both since they were teens. I did things with each individually but once they had jobs, school then families of their own it has not happened.

"You just can't explain love and and how survives physical existence."

Add to that all the other indicators. That is what makes me believe that axioms are truth and much of science too is based on them. One doesn't have to prove, after all, that a circle is circular or air is lighter than water.

So is the case with life beyond life.

May your Mom be in peace; I would have liked to speak with you when I got that mail.

Have a safe journey to and fro, the whole Spirit Family.

Know what you mean about not having to prove what is. To my mind science is just how man explains what is in terms he can understand. I liken it to my explanation of creation vs evolution. No contradiction. Creation tells us what, evolution tells us how.

Thank you Ane. Mom always made her wishes known strongly and directly. Guess I shouldn't have expected any the less now.

Interesting thoughts on transition. Isn't it amazing how the latter part of our lives are all about transition? Maybe it was so earlier but we were just too buy and / or inexperienced to notice.

Thank you for the good wished. The visits from our loved ones are very special, reassurance that the connection remains. My husband first visited the right after he passed. It was so wonderful. We sat and talked about how he would visit and stay in touch etc. That was 9 years ago and things have unfolded just s he said. He does not visit often now but is always there when I need that extra nudge to get on with something, usually keeping active socially.
