Loving Through To The Other Side.
Death is something that will happen to each one of us. What we believe and trust makes the experience more beautiful.
Growing up, I attended church, Sunday School, Confirmation, and summer camps. I was taught there was a heaven and a hell — if you were a good person, you would go to heaven, and if you weren’t, you would go to hell. As a child, this sounded scary, and maybe it was meant that way to keep you on the straight path? Heaven was described as a place with pearly gates, with God sitting there waiting, along with people from your past who were waiting for you to come. Those stories never sat well with me, probably because I questioned everything and never had real confirmation from someone who had been there. Death was a scary concept back then. I imagined you closed your eyes and it was just pure darkness — that was it, life was done.
I stopped going to church years ago, as it was not the place where I found God. All my beliefs changed, and everything that was told to me in my younger years faded away. I now say I am not religious, but I am spiritual. I believe in God, Angels, and Guides, and I know I have a team up there who watches over me.
Death does not scare me anymore. I don’t believe we close our eyes and that’s it. I have experienced a lot of death in my life, and it has been a catalyst for my growth in the spiritual realm. I know now, more than ever, that our souls never leave. There are signs and messages from loved ones all the time — but the key is, you have to be open to see them, feel them, and trust them.
It has been nine weeks since our sweet Honey left us, and I was having a really hard time. No matter how many losses you experience, it is the grief of not seeing, feeling, hearing, or touching them that leaves us sad and heartbroken. A few weeks ago, as I lay in bed crying, I started talking to God, my Angels, and Honey. I asked Honey for a sign — not just that she was okay, but that she was still with us.
The next night, I saw a job posting for the rescue place we adopted her from. I sent it to my daughter, and she applied. The next day, she got an email saying they wanted to interview her. She went, and when she sat down, there on the wall was a picture of our sweet Honey, from the day she came to the rescue facility. My daughter asked if that was Honey, and they said yes. They told her they’d heard she had just passed away, and my daughter, holding back tears, said, “That was my dog.” She got the job a few days later. Honey heard me — and gave me the sign.
Last week, we had a reading with a pet psychic. It was my second time with her, and this reading was all about connecting with Honey. The parts I want to share are the ones that affirmed my knowing and deepened my beliefs even more. She said Honey kept bringing up something about a bed or sheets. I said my daughter had just gotten a new bed. She said, “Honey is saying, I could never have gotten up there.” Which is true! She also said Honey keeps mentioning a pillow with a picture of her on it — and there is one. After Honey passed away, my daughter’s friend ordered her a pillow of a Chihuahua that looked like Honey, with angel wings and her name embroidered on it.
Honey told me not to have any guilt and that she was happy. Georgie, our other dog, who is alive and was sitting next to us during the reading, also had some words to say. She told the psychic she missed her sister and was having a hard time eating lately, which is true. She also said she knew Honey was leaving, as Honey had told her before she left. It was the most healing experience, and I am so thankful for it.
Why I am sharing this is to help anyone who is grieving or questioning the other side. We are never alone; we always have a team walking beside us. Asking for a sign is all it takes. They want to help us — we just need to ask. We are souls wearing a suit, and when the suit can’t go on, our energy — our soul — moves to the other side. How beautiful is that?
I don’t believe in death. Energy can never die; it just changes form. It can be such a hard concept, as our hearts and minds feel a hole for the suit that is no longer here, but I know they are never far from us. -XO Rach
