But will they come when you do call for them?

I will allow her the consolation of an eternal reunion.....but unfortunately, reality says it all ends here in this rather short life.

Probably not! But you will always have the memories.

But if you do, so much better...

but what if he finds love on the other side, than it makes for a great new movie!

Wow. That sounds like a great round-table. I think there is a bit of healing to be had when you can commiserate with other women, and connect with those who understand. Hopefully Kelly Preston will be able to connect with some of these women later, it would probably help her more than she knows. Lisa's story with Patrick Swayze is always so heartwarming.

You might not...
ghost could be wrong...

plus...
your spirit may be misplaced at another person...
due to industry over use...

that WOULD be a pain.

They were a great couple. I guess it helps people to think they will see loved ones again, even though most of us know that is insane, but it feels good to believe it for someone in the depths of grief. I'm not sure that fantasy is the best, helathiest way to look at it though. Believing it in a vague nice kind of way is not so harmless but it comes with so much nasty baggage because it links with other religious nonsense and before you know it, you have to start being stupid in many areas and of course be better than and hate large groups of people not just like you. religion is OK if it can be used in polite society as a social grace, to get through hard times, but to cling to a lie is not healthy at all I think.

It might be a lie to you , but to alot of other people it is the truth..I would never try to analyze and put my belief into what you believe and I just wish people like you would do the same. I have every bit of respect for what you believe and would never try to tell you that it is wrong...I was brought up to respect people and to have respect for what people believe...

Well, listen...the reality is we don't really know whether we will see loved ones again or not, do we? So while you believe that we won't, others do. That's the beauty of this world -- there are many different theories and philosophies to believe in and we all have the choice to believe what we want. The key to real enlightenment is to be tolerant of others beliefs and not to impose what you think is right or wrong on other people. Opening your mind to the full realm of possibilities creates greater understanding and respect among people, especially those that you care about and love the most.

'Favorited' and fanned. Just as you say, opening your mind to the full realm of possibility is where it's at. Any dogmatic belief system (and atheist can get awfully dogmatic like the person, above), narrows vision and limits thought.

All I know is my sweet sister's faith in Jesus Christ is what got her through the horrendous death of her son. I do not think her faith is a lie and she is one of the most healthy people I know.

Bravo!

That took courage knowing full well those still clinging to Blind Faith are going to jump all over you.
