The Visitors
Do you have visitors?
Not the people that come to your home, or office, or events. I mean spiritual visitors.
I remember when my mother passed away I was speaking at her funeral.
(To the effect of): "It is sad for all of us but Mom is now in a position that she had never been in before. She can keep track of all of us any time she wished. She could extend a hand in a dream, or in a passing remembrance.She had the ability through her spirit to follow our careers and our lives and contact us in ways we simply can not understand."
That was 30 years ago. I am now older than she was when she passed away. Now I am that stage of life where I hear of old friends who also are passing away. They too are available in a different sphere. There are different triggers for each of them. Remembrances of events, numbers, favorite plants, things they liked and appreciated that made them unique. Then, once in a while you notice the plant, the number, the event, the hobby and a conversation develops. In a space beyond our grasping, you spend some time with the visitor.
The conversation may calm a fear, encourage an activity, or put one at rest on a hectic day.
DO you have visitors? Someday I may be able to visit also.
