Re:"Mommy will you die before me?"
Michelle Harper
Dear group, Last night I had a moment with my son,
that was very touching. As I was working on the computer, my son who was
not yet asleep, walks in , crawls into my lap, with little tears in his eyes and
says" Mommy, will you die before me?" I said "yes honey, but my spirit
will always be with you" , I could see this was not as comfoting as I
would have liked.."but I wanna die before you do"..Oh No don't say that
honey...I'm older than you ..it is likely that I will pass on before you will,
caus ei was born befor you" SO Pop will die before you? Well I don't
know...I hope not...When will you die? I don't know, honey,we don't
really know before, but if I do die befor you...I will stay with you..my
spirit...."will you look like this body? if you like...I think you will
imagine me as you want to, but this won't be for a long time..."Can't we just go
together??" "and pop, too"???? I don't know....but our Love will always
keep us together in SPirit.....I know we've discussed this thread onlist before,
and I am not the type of person to encourage the "fear" of death...I want him to
understand our belief is that our spirit lives forever, and that death is just a
movement from this life to another level of consciousness. But I noticed
when I was typing up there...that when I became....well when I said..."Oh no
don't say that".....I was also very fearful, because the thought of him dieing
fbefor me, and as well my husband..is very scary....For some weird reason
I find it easier to accept my own death, and be comfortable, that the time will
come, and I will just go, and not to fear that, because after all it is a part
of this life ..but to think of living here, after knowing such a love...and not
having them here to experience this life with....would make for....I don't
know...a pretty dull sad, and awful experience.....I would never want to be
without them, and this is not the first time I have pondered this.....sometimes
when my husband comes home late I begin to worry that something may have
happened....now not all the time mind you....but it is a fearDoes anyone else
have any feelings on this? Many Blessings, Michelle P.
S. I would feel somewhat violated if people could access totally personal
feelingsa such as these , on a search engine...after all this is somewhat of a
support group, and in these type sof groups it is in the spirit of the groups to
assume soem degree of confidentiality. wouldn't you think? Not that
it matters what someone might think that reads this, but it is rather
personal..I should be able to choose to whom, I 'd like to share it
with.
