you sound a little bit like Sylvia Brown, I've looked into a lot of stuff since Nick died.
He always always said he would die young. It was like he just always knew. And for the last year of his life on earth, he really was ready to go. It was like he was just waiting. Hindsight is 20/20....
As for NDE's, I've read every one on here I think. absolutely fascinating. I so want to believe there is more to life than just this earthly presence. And I have it stuck in my head that when Nick had his heart attack he came to a 'Y' in the road. one way was lit and beautiful, filled with love, wisdom and light. The other led back to earth. I don't think he hesitated.
For some reason, he felt he had fulfilled his purpose
And me, I'm still looking.
I'll try your 'request'.. I like your 'non-denominational' approach.
No, I don't, sorry. I live in Vermont.
You don't live near Ohio do you? I'd sure enjoy meeting you.

Thanks for sharing the story and the poem. I can see why so many like her poems. Thanks for starting a new thread as well since I probably would have missed it otherwise.
If you think of another link to her poems I would be interested in that.

Demons are tricky like that.

You say in your own post that you don't believe in Mother Mary, yet you make an entire thread with a fantastic story about your experience with Mother Mary. I'd love to believe what you're saying, but nope, can't succumb to that fantasy.

It never fails. Someone talks about something that means a great deal to them, then you people, and you are Christian, I can tell my the comment, you post drivel like this, calling whatever was seen one of your little demons. I have to ask, in light of recent threads derailed by Christians....what is the true agenda here? Why do you do this? I call it Religious Trolling. And it is getting pretty tired, friend.
On the OP's post, Beautiful, and well written. I too have seen people glow like that, and have heard Ancient Wisdom come from the lips of children. I can see a little bit of the Divine Feminine is most every woman, and even though I do not name her with a Catholic name, it is all the same.
I believe that you actually have to LIVE with God (not just talk about him) every day to have such encounters; and that childlike innocence and wonder that I talked about before and that the Bible mentions certainly helps as well. I think some of the most judgmental Bible thumpers will have a rude awakening when at the end of their lives they'll find out what the things were that really counted -- loving acceptance and goodwill toward others, vs. a dogmatic and self-righteous attitude.
