My Mother died a short while ago. I dreamed of her, once before the event, where I helped her over a river, and several times after, where she indicated all is well with her. I think the first helped her, the last helped me. Communication continues after death, to some extent, and then I think she turns away, planning her next adventure, no doubt.

Those seem comforting experiences! L

Hi Silverark. My sympathies are with you. Your dreams seem to have given you a real sense of peace. I haven't dreamt of my mother since her passing, but I hope that she is enjoying her journey, and not concerning herself with my little dramas. It sounds like you have a very fulfilling dream life.
Love, Cyn

Immortality is our natural state;
death loses its sting.
God smiles from his and her created state
existing in all things.

To say thank you to God or not to say,
Holds equal weight;
Actions of life and actions of death
Show God's creators this natural state.

I have thought about this many times, every time I hear "thank god", actually. I just shake my head when I watch a football player make a touch-down and then tell the news reporters that "God made the touch-down, not me. All thanks should go to Jesus". I wonder that he thinks he has no power at all...he has been taught that he is nothing, and that maybe the other team is sinful and does not deserve to win. I know that is what the coaches teach young players in Texas! I also wonder about folks telling news reporters, "Thank god the tornado missed my house! God just blessed me and my family." and in the background are all the destroyed houses and crying people...who, we are to suppose...god did NOT bless. Very harsh, don't you think? I do send waves of gratitude to the universe every time I am grateful, and I understand while I am doing it that I created the happy situation and in a way, I know I am reinforcing that goodness and setting it up for next time. It is so comforting to know you have the power to change your reality and solve your problems yourself.

Well said AnnMarie!
