We don't have to change our thoughts. We have to get beneath them, to the very essence from which they emerge.

I know, personally, that I would not be in the beautiful state of awareness that I find myself in daily now - knowing that love is the essence of all that is - had I not had the most painful of all experiences, the loss of my stepdaughter.

The spirit world speaks to us through the heart. The more we open our hearts and raise our own vibrations, the easier the connection.

When we ask for advice, we're really looking for confirmation of what our soul already knows.

If we're honest with ourselves, most people want to know that there's more to this life, there's more after this life.

You do not have to remain stuck in your grief forever when you realize that your loved ones who have passed continue on with you, side-by-side with you, in your lives, even though they have their own life going on across the veil.

What to us may seem like a tragedy when it happens eventually can form itself into a gift.
