For me there is no peace, no solace, no understanding.
A beautiful young man, a father, a son, a brother a firend has left never to return.
I really have to say I'm not sure I can believe in god anymore. Not just because of this but becasue shit like this happens every day. Some say there is a reason for everything .There is no reason. What possible reason could there be for taking a father away from his 2yr old little girl? What possible reason could there be for someone so beautiful, so talented so sweet to be taken. To expand, what possible reason could there be for the children being abused, dying of cancer, war, famine, disease etc etc etc.
I think if there is a god he quit caring a long time ago.

He left because his work was done, and it was time to go.

That's kind of been my suspicion as to why he died.

So you mean it was some kind of "out of body experience"? I,m sorry if I appear dense, but I,m struggling to understand this, as we all are. I don,t mean any disrespect to you Leslie, I,m sure this "dream" or vision, or whatever it was was real enough to you, but why would he appear to you, someone he didn,t know? Why not his family, or close friends? I don,t agree that his work was done atall. He was still a very young man, and he had his daughter to live for if nothing else, so his work certainly wasn,t done in that respect anyway.  I wonder how on earth Michelle is going to make a 2 year old understand why daddy isn,t around any more. Bless her.

It's hard when we don't have the right words in our language to explain what happened. I tried when I said we were in our spiritual bodies. To me, it's not an out of body experience but I guess that might be one way to think of it.

This has happened to me before. Five years ago, my friend Larry died (on 1/21/2002...eerily coincidental date). I had last seen him on December 16th and he was fine, so for him to be dead five weeks later was a terrible shock. A few days after he died, very early in the morning, we got together to say goodbye. At first, I had no idea what was going on. We chatted a bit and then I said, "Larry, can I ask you a personal question?" and he said, "Yes, sure." and I said, "Aren't you dead?" and he said, "Oh, yes, I am." And suddenly it all made sense. I was so grateful to have a chance to say goodbye to him, since I hadn't done it in "living" life. (I don't want to say "real" life, because the experience I had was real. We were just in a different place--what I have come to call a spiritual place, in our spiritual bodies).

Similarly, with Heath, I think leaving so unexpectedly, he has lots of goodbyes for lots of people. I am sure he is constantly with Michelle and Matilda right now, as well as traveling around to say goodbye to others. I just feel really special (blessed, even) that I made it onto his list! And even though I never met him in "living" life, obviously he knew me enough to find me and give me a chance for our conversation--in the spiritual place. This time, I understood what was happening, since I had learned from Larry.

As for his work not being done, I am only telling you what he conveyed to me. (I say conveyed, because not all of our conversation was in words.) I'm not asking you to believe me, I'm just telling you what I know.

For those of you who think I am crazy, fine. For those of you who understand, great. And for those of you who would like to learn more, I am happy to continue the conversation, either here or privately.

Hugs and peace,

L

I don't think you're crazy, Honey. I'm glad if this experience helps you begin to find peace and closure.  :)

That was my reaction when my stepmother told me she'd had a visit from my dad after he died. I wasn't sure what to believe, but I knew I was glad that it helped her feel better.

I wanted to share this recent quote from Heath with all of you.  I feel as though something has broken inside me, and I'm not sure if it will ever be fixed again.  My grief is overwhelming me.

This, from an article of the 23rd of January, 2008, is from The Age newspaper, a reputable source here in Australia.  It gave me some comfort to read it.

Thanks for posting that. It was nice to read, because I seem to remember that in the past he'd gotten a lot of grief from the Australian press.

Leslie, thank you so much for sharing your beautiful experience with us. That was so kind and loving of Heath to visit you and comfort you, and so thoughtful of you to communicate your encounter for us.

Ya know, I was always taught you can never question someone elses experience because it's not yours to question.
