Dear God/ess, Has anyone reading these words ever had a major transformational turnaround, or shift in your thinking because some one close to you dropped their body?

This happened to me 24 years ago while sitting with my mother when she died after a three month illness. The room lit up and her spirit filled the room. My dear mum had deep lines etched upon her face from the suffering she endured the last three months of her life. Miraculously, right before my eyes, the wrinkles disappeared, and she looked like a fourteen year old girl.

I remember returning to my home and marveling at the light which was filling my entire being. Every thought I had was filled with unconditional love, Any person I thought of, I suddenly loved them, even if they did an unforgivable act by the standards of the world.

This lasted for 3-4 days. White light was breathing inside my heart and I wanted to express this with service and non- judgement forever.

Twenty-four years later, Jo-an Glasse passed on, and she is my mother's best friend. The other day at her service, in my utterly sleep deprived state, this same experience overtook me as it had twenty-four years before. Sheila Audet choreographed the experience we all had.

Sheila and Jo-an's children found an audio of Jo-an's beloved "seed service" and they created the service in such a way that  Jo-an could  perform her own funeral service.

Sheila said, "Are we on?"

Then Jo-an's voice boomed all over the church, " ARE WE ON???"

It was like a strike in the third eye, especially in my sleep deprived state. I believe it also created an altered state   for everyone else there.

In her passing, and experiencing the disembodied voice of our dear, dear friend, I had a spiritual awakening. I fully came to know that death is an illusion. No one ever dies. There is no other side. We are all here, now.

Yet our dearly beloved loved ones have their own destinies and missions they must immerse themselves in.

I haven't been tremendously in tune with the so-called other side. But the experience in the church woke me up to a beautiful communication that always is available to us.

Jo-an has been showing up as an exquisite blue butterfly. As I prepared to confront a family member about her alcohol problem tonight, I heard Ulysses bark. He was barking at a blue butterfly that was erratically flying around my front yard. Jo-an was giving me the courage to open my heart to the tragedy that could befall my family any moment by an untimely death.

I wanted my alcoholic to know that she is too young to die. She must find what makes her heart sing. She must
find her mission here on Planet Earth, the greatest teaching and learning opportunity known to any of us here, now.

I told her and I begged her through tears of sadness as well as tears of joy.

Isn't that what true Unconditional Love is all about?

Om Peace Amen
