Working out increases strength and conditioning, and although it hurts, there is an upside to the hard work to make us stronger. Imagine your loved one is your own personal spiritual strength training coach.

Mending is putting something in working order again. I am putting the pieces of my life back together in a new way.

I will always celebrate him on his birthday and I know he will be extra close celebrating with me. Happy Birthday today, to my beautiful blue eyed boy!

The days leading up to the anniversary of our loved one’s passing can be filled with trepidation and anxiety. If you have a special day coming up, know you are not alone.

I’ve heard it said that “pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.” We get to decide how much this pain will cause us to suffer.

It is in the stillness of the mind, in between the thoughts and demands of your physical world that you may find the space to truly reconnect to your inner true self.

All hope is not lost. It just may feel this way when we are grieving.

We need to raise our vibration to meet them where they are vibrating. Doing at least one good thing for your soul each day can help.

You may wonder whether it was just a dream or a true dream visitation. Intention and patience can make a visitation happen.

Imagine every single grain of sand on the beach represents a single moment of our life. If we focus on just that one grain of sand, we miss the whole beach.

Maybe the purpose of the pain is to wake us up to the knowing we were not remembering before our lives were shattered and our hearts were broken open.

Isn’t it better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all? I will miss you, till we meet again.

Your loved one may be nudging you to reach out farther to connect to them. It is a two way street.

The new you after the shattering is not the same person you were before the shattering. You are not the same person you were before your loved one left.

The waves of grief come and go, in and out like the tide. Your loved one is always available to send you a life preserver, when you need a little extra help to ride the waves.

Many times, the bigger they are, the harder they fall. These souls tend to have the hardest time being human here on Earth.

It’s all a matter of awareness and focus. All you need to do is focus on spirit and immediately the channel is open.

Are we really thrown down here randomly with no definitive game plan or is everything perfectly imperfect and divinely planned to the exact T?

How many times do you think back to the way things were before? Do you wish you could change the way things turned out?

I am actually closer to my son now than when he was in a physical body. I know that doesn’t really seem possible.
