Energy never dies. I love that. Why? Because it proves we never truly die. Our spirits/souls are energy. So, when we die, we really don’t die. We just go somewhere else … we join a whole new existence.
I began testing this theory years ago. Whenever a family member or close family friend would pass away, I would say a silent prayer and ask him/her to please send me a sign that they’re okay; and what do you know? I got my answers!
First off, let me tell you something that happened when I was a teenager. My family flew to Oregon to attend my grandfather’s funeral. He was a very religious man, so this wasn’t too surprising. However, it was something I never expected. During his funeral while the organ player and violinists were taking a break and switching music books for the next song, the entire church grew quiet. That’s when we heard it; but only a few of us. I was sitting by my cousin and a nun, Sister Catherine, at the time. Music began playing quietly from above somewhere. It was the song Amazing Grace, and oh my goodness, we were in shock. It was beautiful organ music, yet the person playing the organ was not playing it! And, only a few of us heard it. I heard it, Sister Catherine heard it, and I believe my cousin did, too, but I’m not positive. Anyway, I remember Sister Catherine whispering to me, “Do you hear that? It’s a miracle!” I nodded in agreement. I had goosebumps. It truly was a miracle.
So, this is kind of what started my interest in what happens after we die. Several years later, when I was in my twenties, I began experimenting. Of all the people, my dentist passed away. He was someone my father was good friends with and had grown up with. He had always been our dentist. Well, he passed away unexpectedly. The funeral was sad, and the following day at home, I said a silent prayer for him and also asked him to please send me a sign if he’s in heaven. I wasn’t sure anything would truly happen, so I just went about my usual business after that.
The next day, I had a toothache. It was the tooth that he had once filled. I was in shock! Was this his way of sending me a sign? Whoah! Goosebumps. I found a dentist to go to, and it turned out that the filling had cracked and I needed to have it replaced.
A good friend of my mom’s passed away several years ago. She had been a family friend for years and was like a grandmother to my brothers and I. She was the sweetest lady, and very spunky. She was someone I never thought would die. Unfortunately, she did. And the day she did, something very strange happened. I remember sitting at the kitchen table working on a painting or something while my 18-month-old was in the living room listening to music while coloring in her coloring books. All of a sudden, I had this wave of energy come over me. I jumped up and ran over to my daughter and began dancing to the music. I suddenly felt SO full of energy and just had to dance. I even jumped up on the coffee table and boogied down. My daughter just stared at me in amazement. I can only imagine what was going through her head. Ha ha! But just as quickly as the energy entered me, it left. I then jumped down and went back to what I had been doing. I remember sitting there thinking, “What in the world was that? Where did that burst of energy come from?”
Then the phone rang. I answered it. My brother was on the other line and told me that Alene had just passed away … a few minutes prior to his call. He said Alene’s son had called him right when it happened, and then my brother called me. After hanging up, I sat there … stunned. Alene’s spirit had visited me! I just knew it. That explained the burst of energy that couldn’t be explained. It had happened right when she had passed away. To me, she was passing through to let me know she was free. 
That was how Alene was. She had wanted to be free ever since her husband had died years before. Now she was, and she was letting me know.
There have been other incidents where I’ve received messages from the other side, but I don’t have enough time to write about them all. I wish I did. I could probably write a book about them. Hey, I might just do that one day.
Energy never dies. I love it.
