Where Do They Go?

(I just wanted to share this with all of you)

Where do they go to, the people who leave?
Are they around us, in the cool evening breeze?
Do they still hear us, and watch us each day?
I'd like you to think of them with us that way.

Where do they go to, when no longer here?
I think that they stay with us, calming our fear
Loving us always, holding our hands
Walking beside us, on grass or on sand.

Where do they go to, well it's my belief
They watch us and help us to cope with our grief
They comfort and stay with us, through each of our days
Guiding us always through life's mortal maze.

Jayne, I sit in front of his picture with a lamp burning. When I talk to him the lamp light flickers in response. We (my kids & I) think that's his way of connecting with us. There are times when its burning low and I would mention some incident about him and the flame would start jumping. How can he just leave me & his kids just like that? He used to say that he can't live without us.

It's great if you can think they are still here. It gives comfort to know that. But what if they are not?

Fernandohulya, just in life you go out alone to do your job and whatever else and then get back together. I think same thing happens now. Since the body doesn't exist anymore it doesn't need to do any jobs body related. I think soul has some chores to do too which it does and in between it pops in to let us know that it cares. I think it stays with you as long as it knows you need him and then as slowly you start becoming independent, it starts on its journey/mission or whatever else it has to do. Because the attachment is both side it will keep coming occasionally to check and make sure things are running smoothly. (All this is my feeling, I hope I am right). Take care, thinking of you.
