The question in all of your hearts is what lies beyond death. Is it a pool of nothingness or a tunnel with the brightest light at the end? The answer is clear to me sitting here, all knowing and all seeing, but for most of you it will take a great leap of faith to believe the tunnel does in fact lead to the afterlife. It does, and this place that I call home is where you will come. I sit here today surrounded by utter beauty, by complete love and, yes, I am all knowing and all seeing, at least in your eyes I would be. Of course I can see your world. I can see your lives, past, future and present. I can see what the future holds, who you will love, who you will lose, your children and when these events will happen. I can see the moment of arrival in your physical body and I can see the moment of departure. I know what the future holds. I know that when you die you will come back here and sit beside me watching over the world that you call your home today. It is an all encompassing view and one that allows me to help and guide when necessary. It is a place of beauty. I hold your future in my hands, but it is a future you decided before you left your true home here with me. I merely help and guide you through your physical life in order that you fulfill that plan for your life. I ensure the connections are made. I ensure you are where you need to be at the right time. Of course, I am not with each and every one of you. I am with Sam, but each of you has your own William guiding you along your chosen path.
Life After Death Part 2
Many of you fear the process of dying. It is the unknown. Will you feel pain? Is that the end of everything? There is no pain in dying. Of course, there may be a brief moment of physical pain, but as your spirit lifts that pain will subside and you will see before you the place that is your true home. It is an instant remembering. You left this place and you were born into your physical body and in doing so you forgot all about the place that is your true home. When you die and return here you will remember instantly. You will feel all the heartache of a physical life floating away and you will remember.
Life is for living. The place I call your true home is a wondrous place, but the place you inhabit in your physical body is a place of beauty as well. I can’t emphasise enough the importance of living for the moment while you are living in your physical body. There is so much to learn, so much to see, so much to give. Your life in your physical body is but a moment and it is for that reason that you should live for today, as if there were no tomorrow. So many of you dwell on the past, what could have been. Others look to the future willing certain events to happen. If you live in the moment you will enjoy your life to the full. Even when you are feeling down, maybe in the depths of despair, there is beauty around you; a flower, the light in someones eyes. If you look for the positives, then life can become bearable. Of course, death is a sad thing, mostly for those that are left behind. You cannot be certain of an afterlife, that you will see the person again, but please believe me. I am here in the afterlife and it is just as you can imagine it to be, but much, much more.
Life After Death Part 1
Many of you question whether there is anything after death. Many of you turn to religion in the hope that you will find the answers you are looking for. You lose a loved one and feel utter despair. They are no longer with you. Have they gone to a better place, heaven, or are they just gone never to be seen or heard of again? The answer is clear. They have returned to their true home. They walk beside me in a place that is truly wondrous. There is no hate, no fear, no wars. We are surrounded by love and a beauty beyond your words. I am unable to explain it completely as you do not have the words, but the place is love; it is wonder; it is beauty. It is a rainbow of so many colours that you would lose count after a day or two. Imagine your own colour spectrum and multiply it by a few hundred thousand and you would see what I can see.
So why are many of you so scared of death if the reality of life beyond it is so full of wonder? Of course, you cannot see it. You will not see it until you return here and when you do you will be filled with complete and utter joy and calmness. There is life after death, and there is life before life. Your life in your physical body is but a moment. It is a click of your fingers. Your life here with me will go on for eternity. It is your truth. I wish I could describe it more. In reality all of those that you have lost are standing beside me waiting for your return. They are with you every moment of every day, watching over you, guiding you. There is so much for me to share, but at the risk of overwhelming, I will stop today.
Love Is The Question
Love is the question of all time. What is love? How do you know you have found it? Are you in love? What is true love? It is a question that is virtually impossible to answer. Love is based on your feelings and you cannot measure those feelings. How do you know, for example, that your feelings of love are the same as those of another? Many of you find love in your time in your physical body on earth. Many of you search for true love and never find it and some of you believe you have found love, when in actual fact the depth of the feelings you have do not equate to being in love. Some of you meet someone early on in life and fall in love, only to find months or years later that the first person was not the love of your life. You meet someone else and feel that earth shattering, all encompassing feeling that is love.
Everyone is in search of love. The love a mother or father feels for a child cannot be questioned, however finding your soul mate is a different matter all together. There are millions and millions of people walking the earth you inhabit, but even so, some do not meet their partner for life. How can that be? Surely there must be at least one individual out there that will fill the hole in your heart? Life is complex. I have hinted before that you choose each step of your life in your physical body and this includes the loves of your life. Some of you choose to meet your soul mate early on and live a life of happiness and harmony together. Some of you choose to meet a few partners who you feel may be ‘the one’, but then realise later in life, when you do meet ‘the one’, the feeling of complete and utter true love. You realise those loves you experienced in the past were false loves. Some of you choose to go through life in search of love, never to find it. Love is a lesson. To lose in love is as painful as it gets. It can feel as if your heart is being torn in two. To find love is a wondrous feeling. To find love that is not reciprocated causes a numbness. The list is endless.
Sorry Is The Hardest Word
I am sure you can remember a time when you caused someone pain, either intentionally or unintentionally. A harsh word spoken without thought can sometimes cause the greatest of upset. It is hard to think before you speak, to consider the impact of your words on others. Often it feels as if you speak without even the briefest of thoughts. Your mouth works in complete harmony with your brain and there is nothing to arrest the words that flow. Of course, this is not true. Each of you has the ability to consider your words carefully before you speak them. Sometimes it may be as simple as not saying anything until a situation has calmed; walking away until you are ready for a reasoned dialogue. You are human and this is hard for each and every one of you.
There are very few of you who are able to speak with prior thought on a constant basis. The words of others can cause you to react quickly, especially when you feel an injustice has been said and done, and you feel it important to make your point; maybe get the upper hand. In reality your lives could be quite balanced and calm. The ability to respond to situations with calmness and respect is a trait you can nurture and learn, but it is a hard lesson, a very hard lesson indeed. There are many influencing factors into how you respond to situations, and to learn to control each of them is quite a feat, but it is a feat worth mastering, as not only will you begin to feel calmer within yourself, but you will see others around you enveloped in their own sense of calm.
Life is for living and in living your life you should embrace each day, each situation with a sense of wonder. Every interaction is important, from the mundane, to the in depth conversation about something important. You have an impact on those around you in both large and small ways, from the briefest chat in the school playground to the discussions about the state of your relationship. The way you say things and handle situations can be the make or break of a friendship or deeper relationship. In short, you are how others see you. You are the words you use, the smile you project. No one else can influence your way of being apart from yourself. You can decide whether to project kindness or anger, happiness or despair. In moments of weakness the easy answer is to react with a harsh word or stare, but in actuality you will feel better about yourself if you react kindly, with measured words.
Life After Life
Most of you suspect that there could be more to life than that you can see around you. It is too simplistic to believe that you are everything, that the human is the only living being and that there is nothing beyond your physical life on earth. Of course there is more and I wish I could explain in the words of your limited vocabulary the place that is your true home.
In a simplistic way you could describe your life as birth, a period of living and then death, but there is so much more to it than that. Your true home is here with me in a place that only I can see. You are born into your physical body, you live your physical life and then you return here to me. Your life is a lesson. Some lessons are harder than others, but the reality is that you chose every milestone in your life before you set foot in your earthly, physical body. You chose your parents, where you will live, who you will love, the loves that you will lose, your children; the list is endless. It feels very controlling if you look at it from a distance, but in actuality your life feels very much uncontrolled doesn’t it? One day you are living a life of normality, of happiness, and then the next day something hits you like a bolt of lightening, a change so substantial that you feel you could never have predicted or chosen the course of events. In actual fact, you will have chosen that milestone. It will be one of the lessons that you have chosen for yourself, but you will have forgotten the plan for your life as soon as you become a physical being.
Every stage of your life is a lesson. Everyone has challenges. Some people’s challenges are so much harder than others. Their lessons are tough and when you watch over them you wonder how they can bear the pain, but most do and often with a laugh and a smile. Of course there are good times. Few people choose a life of absolute pain or suffering. Interspersed between the sad times, the bad times, are periods of happiness and moments of absolute joy. Why would you not choose a life of complete and utter happiness? The truth is that life is a lesson. If you only experienced joy, you would never appreciate the smile that someone gives you when you are feeling down. You would never appreciate the good times, the moments of love, the birth of your child, the embrace of a loved one. If life was constant happiness, with no suffering and pain, you would not learn. You would not come home to me a more developed being. To experience happiness, you need to experience sadness. To experience joy you need to understand the pain that can come to your heart when something terrible happens. Life is a lesson. It is a lesson in love, a lesson in understanding, a lesson in tolerance. The list is endless and, for each of you, your lessons will be different.
Life before Life
You may wonder at times about the purpose of your life. Why are you here? What will you do with your life? Is your life important? Everyone at some stage questions the meaning of life. Where will they end up living? Is there more to life than where they are today? Is there life after death, or more to the fact, is there life before death? The answer is in your hearts. If you close your eyes and still your mind you will see the future and the future for you. It will be full of surprises and those surprises will be for you alone. You may share some of them with others, but your life path is yours. It is one that only you will tread and it will be full of wonder.
No one can predict the future. There are those that see glimpses, a brief moment, but no one is able to map every step of your life ahead for you. It would be wrong. The happiness of finding true love would be dulled because you knew it was coming. The overwhelming sadness of impending death would be too much to bear. You would all live your lives differently. The unknown before you can fill you with excitement. The next moment is unknown, as is the next day, the next month. Of course you have plans, but they are interspersed by the unexpected, and even those plans have yet to be lived and experienced.
Life is but a moment. You live and then you die. In reality you are born from your true home back here with me. It is a place of true wonder and one that your vocabulary is unable to describe, but when I say it is like heaven, but much, much more you will have an inkling of your true home. You will return when your body becomes tired and can’t go on. Your spirit will lift and you will see the truth for yourself. In the meantime your life will unfold and bring you moments of happiness and joy, moments of sadness and despair. All of this will be interspersed by plateaus of normality. For that is life in a physical body.
The Beginning
Well, this is my first ever blog and it is the time to explain what it is about and where it is coming from. I am a psychic, but most definitely don’t like to be called one. I am a regular girl with a regular life. Those around me would see me as a woman with a ‘normal’ life, as well as being a woman of integrity. That’s how I want it to stay, because I am ‘normal’ and, yes I do speak to my dead Great Grandfather, but I am ‘normal’.
It all started about 10 years ago. My life was in a bit of a downturn. I was sitting gazing out of my window onto my beautiful garden when the urge to write came over me. I wrote, but the words were not my own. The words were those of my long since dead Great Grandfather William. The initial words were squiggly and there were few of them, but over time his words began to flow through my pen and we got to where we are today. 10 years later with a husband and two small children now at school, I am sitting at home wondering what to do with my life next. First and foremost I am a wife and mother. There is no compromise to this, but I have more time on my hands, especially on these grey winter days when the garden and the hills are not beckoning. The question is, though, is it my blog or does it belong to my Great Grandfather William? The words that flow are his. The words in this first blog are his. Of course, I can choose not to transcribe them from paper to web page, but I won’t. My experiences in these last 10 years have demonstrated that William’s words are wise. They are full of hope, love and joy. I am hoping this blog with be a means of sharing these words just a little wider. Time will tell.
