Our children
loved beyond imagination
loved before birth
even before conception
loved forever

Taken from us
how do we live
how do we cope
what do we believe?

These ideas feel true...




Children of The Universe

Each soul makes decisions and choices long before it is born on earth. The souls of our children have chosen us, specifically, to be their parents. They have chosen to be born into our families, to be a part of our lives, part of a certain physical condition, and to be connected with our personalities.

We, the souls that we are, have made the same choices.

The writings and messages conveyed by people like James Van Praagh, John Edward, any many others even long before these men were alive, confirm these things. Because each soul has chosen a specific path, that which seems so terrible, so unbelievable, so insurmountable, is chosen by that soul for its own growth and learning.

The length of life on earth is designed to encompass that which the soul needs to experience and learn. When the lessons are learned, it is time for the soul to leave. Just as in school, as we finish each class it is time to leave and move on to the next class, the next teacher, the next group of fellow students. Perhaps, even the next school.

In many cases, the manner of leaving is chosen...again for specific reasons. Because there was one more thing for the soul to learn, or to help someone else learn. I, personally, totally believe that this earthly, physical life is not the 'only' life we live. I completely believe, through my own experiences and what I've read and heard, that life is, indeed, everlasting, ongoing, unending. It is only our physical body that 'dies.' The soul removes it like an old worn-out overcoat and continues to live on a different level, where overcoats are not needed.

What I've learned recently describes children being met 'on the other side' by grandparents, friends, even beloved pets, who have already passed over and who are there to comfort, reassure, and ease the transition being experienced by each little spirit. Many souls take on this 'job' of meeting children at the moment of transition to make certain they understand what has happened, and to guide them on the other side.

We do not have to worry that our children are lost and alone.

The spirits of children understand that you, their families, are grieving, and they spend time with their parents, brothers, sisters, and grandparents. They do their best to let you know they are still alive, only on another plane. They want you to know they still love you, they know what is going on in your lives, and they do their best to leave messages. They try to make themselves known in little ways: a light turning itself on and off, a plant or curtain moving in a windless room, a picture appearing in an unexpected location, items being moved or knocked over. These are little signs that someone is there, letting you know they are still with you. They are, in some cases, even watching over you, doing their best to guide you.

We miss them, and must grieve for them. We cannot hold ourselves back from grief...it is extremely important that we go through the grieving process, acknowledging that we are in pain, that life will never be the same, even that we are angry. Sometimes we are angry with God, sometimes with the very person whose physical presence is no longer with us. Sometimes we feel great guilt; we should have done something different. "I shouldn't have let her go by herself." "I shouldn't have put him to bed without telling him I loved him."

The feelings of loss and sorrow are natural. And although they feel insurmountable, they will pass...if you allow yourself to connect with them, acknowledge them, experience them.

Do not hesitate to grieve, to express all the emotions and thoughts that you have. Do not repress them, do not keep them inside...find people to talk to about your grief. Write letters to God, or to the loved one who has died. Do it as many times as you need to, for as long as you want to.

And then, know these three things...

You will get through this experience.
You will continue to live and to love.

You will see them again.
You will be reunited
with each loved one who passes on before you.
Of that I have no doubt.

Love is the bridge that connects you
while you continue your life on earth.

I convey this message to each of you
from all those who have passed before....

"We love you...and we always will."
