I was shown that being in the physical is like being in a thick forest. If we rise above the level of the trees, however, and look down, we can see where we've been, where we're presently headed, and most importantly, how to get to the river. Mourning Occasionally I hear from someone who very much wants communication with a loved one in spirit, but who fears that it is a sin to seek this, or fears that by grieving or reaching out, they are holding their loved one to earth. I believe that our intentions are everything, especially when it comes to spiritual matters. If our intentions are loving, and we are able to achieve what we desire, then it must be good.
Actions motivated by fear tend to reap undesired results.
It's not wise to worry about loved ones, for then we simply send negative energy toward them, imagining unwanted things for them. It is wonderful, however, to think of them and miss them with great love and appreciation. It is when I'm with someone and they are thinking with love of someone in spirit that those loved ones in spirit most readily draw close or come through spontaneously. Very often loved ones in spirit are seeking communication just as we seek it with them. This is very rare.
