 I hope you enjoy them.

 
To prefix this ‘inspirational talk’ I want you to know this was the most difficult one I have done to date.
 
In 2014 I was also blessed with the honour of giving the last talk of the year. I spoke about survival, and recovery… Part of me feels that’s what set the tone for my year ahead…Sigh… Thought is energy and be mindful of what you focus on.  I have posted that talk in the blog below...
 
 This year I have vowed to be more of my ‘Authentic Self’.  I’ve vowed to come from a place of ‘Heart Centered Spirituality’, and show you my real self,  whether you like it or not… & whether or not I’m really ready too or not.
But I trust in God. I trust.  So here goes….
 
The Importance of Prayer
 
In Alice Walker’s Book The Color Purple, we are reminded that: “God ain’t he or she, but it…. Don’t look like anything. It ain’t something you can look at apart from anything else, including you. I believe God is everything. Everything that is or ever was or ever will be. And when you can feel that, and be happy to feel that, you’ve found it.”
 
So, let me clarify for you: All of these words are inter changeable: God, Buddha, Jesus, Ala, Christ Consciousness, Oneness, Universe, Infinite Intelligence, The Force, Divine Spirit, Universal Energy and so on…… Do you understand me? Yes, ok, lets carry on…. 
 
Prayer is NOT about what you can get, but rather a way of relating to your understanding of God. The act of prayer is to re-establish or strengthen our connection with Spirit Energy.
 
Prayer can be used to express the Truth of our own places in the universe. Everyday it can be used to remind us of our presence in this infinite mystery and unending time.
 
Prayer is useful. Just as the body needs rest, the mind needs peace and the spirit needs attention. Prayer is a conscious decision to focus our attention on ONENESS. 
 
If you want to FEEL God, Energy or the DIVINE SPIRIT in your daily life, you need to act as if it is already a part of you. We are one divine energy or inspiration if you will.
 
Prayer can be simple:
 
Guide me, Remind me of the Truth of my being. Help me to see beyond what I can physically see. Give me courage and strength to share myself authentically. Inspire my Soul to do your work.
 
 
One of the best Confidence builders is experience. I have some….
 
Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet
“Don’t think that the person who is trying to comfort you now lives untroubled among the simple & quiet words that sometimes gives you pleasure. His life has much trouble and sadness, and remains behind yours. If it were otherwise, he could never been able to find those words.”
 
My story…
 
It is hard to admit a weakness. Its hard to admit a weakness to others that you admire. It is hard to admit weakness to people who have bestowed a sacred title to you…
 
In churches, a minister is someone who is authorized by a church or religious organization to perform functions such as teaching of beliefs; leading services such as weddings, baptisms or funerals; or otherwise providing spiritual guidance to the community.
 
Notice how it doesn’t say anything about perfection…. Although it certainly feels implied sometimes… The heaviness of this title is not to be taken lightly. Please know, I don't.
 
340 days…Can you guess what 340 days is? If you trace it back it will bring you to January 28th, 2015. That is my Sobriety date. 
 
I am an alcoholic. I am what they call a ‘binge’ drinker… the semantics of this are not important to this talk, but that is the kind of alcoholic I am, in case you wanted to know.
 
Although like most alcoholics I have some incredible stories, funny and entertaining,  the best one is of my sobriety.  It gave me my life back. It gave me purpose again. Admitting my problem gave me peace. When I accepted it, I was able to change. Change is what I needed most.
 
Sure I used a lot of tools to ‘get better’. The one that has seen me through day in and day out is prayer. That’s what I hope to share with you today. It can be simple and eloquent. Or it can be dirty, messy and fist pumping. It can be whispered, thought, yelled, kept in secret or shared.  It can be big or small. Its up to you. You are the deciding factor in your prayer.
 
You see I needed to tell you this so that you can see I’m no different from you. I am flawed. I am hurt. I am growing. I am grateful. I am honest. I am trying. I am human.  Remember you and I are the same.
 
You see we are all equal in Spirit- not one of us any different- and yet we feel different because of what we experience and the actions that we do, or do not.
 
When we recognize that we are not in charge, and that the only thing we can do is take charge of ourselves and our actions, that is when we awaken.  None of us are in charge of the universe or the actions or non-actions of others.

We are only in charge of ourselves.
 
This is when we start to realize how important that connection to the ‘oneness’, ‘god’, ‘divine spirit’, ‘universe’, or ‘force’ really is. We need to keep and maintain that connection to this so we can keep our connection to others.
 
Some of the easiest prayers I have used have been:
 
‘HELP’
 
‘With Love’
 
‘ALWAYS’
 
‘Thank You’
 
‘Spirit I accept your guidance’
 
‘I forgive myself, I forgive you. I understand shortcomings. I understand misunderstandings. I accept myself in human form.’
 
‘I need not be better than anyone else, but to be better than I used to be.’
 
‘I ask for transformation of what is in my control.’
 
“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference.’
 
‘I am becoming more and more myself.’
 
‘Guide me to my best self. Let me say yes to possibilities. Let me feel hope.’
 
‘I ask for circles of healing, the heartbeat, the planet in the mantle of love.’
 
‘Let love heal.’
 
‘In the light, blessed be.”
 
‘I believe.’
 
‘Let me know when I am ready.’
 
‘I wish the best for all of us.’
 
‘Let me choose cooperation. Let me choose love.’
 
‘Use me as your instrument.’
 
‘Let peace begin with me.’
 
‘From Spirit, Through Spirit, To Spirit.’
 
“Let Love In.’
 
‘One Love, One Heart.’
 
‘Thy will be done.”
 
Dear ones, Prayer is just as important as meditation. I think we forget this…. I know I did.  Meditation is listening to God, Prayer is speaking to God. Now is the time. We all want to be great, and truth be told greatness requires sacrifice. It requires doing things that others won’t or can’t do. GREAT HABITS ARE FORMED DAILY. The fact is, good habits require consistent commitment. Highly successful people have learned to develop good habits. Make the commitment to make it past the obstacles’, no matter how many times you need to go back to it and start again to reach new levels of success. This is something that can and will change your life for the better. Trust me, I’m pretty confident in this.

Please feel free to use one of the above prayers, or make your own. But do it consistently. You will see what I'm talking about.   So Dear Ones, when I say to you, I care not how you pray…… as long as you do, what I’m really saying is ‘please reconnect, we need you’.

All Love, xo Truly

 Inspirational Message for December 28th 2014
“YOU in 2015”
 
2014 has been heavy or hard year for many of us. It was a year that almost broke a lot of people. It was full of powerful energy. At times it was dark, emotional and energetically turbulent. 
For you, it might be going down as one of the worst years you can remember.
This year may have brought you to your knees more times than you can count.
This year could have knocked the wind out of you, leaving you hopeless, exhausted and still gasping.
But before you turn your back on 2014, I ask that you to take another look at your year.
Take a good look at yourself. Where are you right now? Energetically, where are you?
Emotionally, where are you?
Physically, where are you?
And Spiritually, where are you?
Ok, now STOP.
Bring it back. You are HERE. You are STILL here. 
You didn’t let go. You haven’t given up. You still have breath in your lungs. Your heart still beats. Place your hand over your heart……… Feel that? Its purpose… Its determination… I dare say… its life.  
That is real…  that is significant & that is amazing.
You hung on. You are here.
Now, if you’ve ever attended one of our “Complete Cellular Mind and Body” Workshops you know this phrase;
You Are Wanted. You are Needed. And You are Loved
Say it with me:
I AM WANTED, I AM NEEDED, I AM LOVED. (Again)
I AM WANTED, I AM NEEDED, I AM LOVED. (again)
I AM WANTED, I AM NEEDED, I AM LOVED. (again)
I AM WANTED, I AM NEEDED, I AM LOVED. (one more time)
I AM WANTED, I AM NEEDED, I AM LOVED.
Ok. By the way, if you need a new affirmation to start the year, this is one of the best.
So… This is what I know to be true about you:
2014 was not your worst year, but possibly your best… hear me out now… It has been:
Your Year of Hope
Your Year of Courage
Your Year of Faith
Your Year of Patience
Your Year of Risk
Your Year of Strength
Your Year of Awareness
Your Year of Love
Your Year of Determination
Your Greatest Year of Learning
 
The next time you pass by a mirror… take a good long look at yourself. Don’t be shy. THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE MADE OF.
Isn’t it amazing? Isn’t it significant? Ahhh, but its real!
It was your Greatest Year of Survival.
And you are still here to talk about it.  You! Yes, you! You amaze me. You are incredible. You are magical. You are hopeful, and I am hopeful because of you.
I send you love. I send you light and I send you peace.
Thank you for being HERE. Thank you, for sharing your life with me. Thank you for being a part of my life.
Now, lets talk about 2015. This Year is YOUR Year. What will you do with it? Where do you want to go? What do you want to do? Where will your purpose take you?  
Here are a few more things I know to be true, that you may find helpful in the New Year:
If you make your own definition of Success you will achieve it every time.  The definition is simply: The achievement of something desired, planned, or attempted.  So keep it that simple. Success on your own terms.
You ARE IN CHARGE. Nothing is by CHANCE. You are an active participant in the creation of your life. So embrace your power as a creator, and start choosing thoughts, words and actions that make a positive impact and will come back to you in a million magnificent, beautiful, serendipitous ways.
What other people think of YOU is none of YOUR business. We give away so much of our energy, power and inner peace by worrying about what others think. The truth is we can’t ever know for certain what other people are thinking about us. So when your ego starts to fill you with doubt and fear, remember it’s a fairy tale… Grimms or Disney… the choice is yours.
You do Not need to Logically Understand Everything. We’ve been taught to trust our minds, but not our intuition or inner voice of guidance. When you’re grappling with a problem or lacking clarity, learn to lean into your soul and trust the wisdom it provides to you. Often we receive the answer in the form of a gut feeling, serendipitous sign or a spontaneous ‘aha!’ moment. Trust it.
You do not See things the way they really are. How we experience the world is heavily influenced by our beliefs and past experiences. Our subconscious mind chooses pieces of information to serve to our conscious mind based on what we’ve programmed it to look for. Identify your dominant beliefs and replace the ones that aren’t serving you for your highest good.
There is Nothing wrong with You. We are plagued by feelings of inadequateness and worthlessness, postponing self-acceptance and self-love until a day in the future when we’re thinner, wealthier, more confident and more popular. You are perfect and complete exactly as you are. Even when you are striving to improve and grow, you are complete. As the N.Y. Author Dodinsky says: ‘You have to love yourself because no amount of love from others is sufficient to fill the yearning that your soul requires from you.”
So, now that I’ve given you some things to ponder, only one question remains. What will you do with 2015?
 
Thank you for allowing me to share.

Last fall, when Truly was on the Edge morning show with Fred & Mel, it became clear to me how people seek factual or scientific explanation to become more comfortable and accepting of the work of a Medium. In truth it really is how we measure and accept things in our lives. It was Halloween and during the radio show Truly commented on how it was a “high energy day” and by using that terminology it provided a glimpse of what she does and it’s relationship with science. As humans we naturally limit our beliefs on what we can see, hear or feel through our senses. Unless of course it’s been clearly proven and documented in some measurable way by others. 

Evolution may one day get us to a point in which the work of a Medium is scientifically proven, but until then part of a Medium’s work will depend on people believing beyond the physical. Hopefully this blog can help readers deepen their understanding of our larger living systems, entities we are part of and perceived limits which are not as limited as we’ve been brought up to believe.

I wish to remind readers that once, we has humans, thought that the world was flat. We only discovered electrons about 100 years ago. The simplicity of things like a dog whistle can’t be heard by humans because it’s on a frequency (or vibration) the human ear can’t hear.


“If quantum mechanics hasn’t profoundly shocked you, you haven’t understood it yet. Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded as real.” – Niels Bohr, Nobel Prize Winning Physicist (atomic structure and quantum theory)


Our human senses often misguide us to perceive things in life based on the the physical material world. Yet Nobel prize winning physicists have proven numerous times that these perceptions are wrong. In short and in simplest terms “EVERYTHING IS ENERGY.” Let’s start with that phrase. Albert Einstein’s infamous E = mc2 theory tells us that mass and energy are two forms of the same thing. Big or small, short or tall everything is energy. From the dust you don’t even notice landing on you as you read this, to the universe as a whole, to the smallest unit of matter that is an atom which are all around you (but try sharing an atom with me if you please!). Consider this. A cube of sugar contains as many atoms as there are stars in the universe. Are you starting to understand how limited in the physical sense we are as humans? 

People often ask Truly “how do you connect with spirit?”. Truly works with YOUR energy, frequency and vibration. One of the big reasons Truly prefers face to face readings is because your physical presence greatly improves the probability of her connection for you. Face to face she can see, hear and feel your energy. Society has taught us to look at someone and their physical matter constitutes their presence. However, as stated above “Energy” is not defined and/or limited by a heart beat, or a physical mass of a loved one, so why would we feel one’s energy is terminated when they pass away?  Connections with spirit are made by Truly as she raises her vibrational frequency (and spirit may need to lower theirs). That connection is often evident to a client when they witness fidgeting or Truly taking on/expressing the mannerisms of the person who has passed. A clients voice, early on in the reading, can assist in raising the vibration and assist in making that connection sooner due to their relationship with the deceased. Law of vibration states everything vibrates at one frequency or another including yourself. Key word here being “frequency”. Nothing rests and everything in this world and universe vibrates, so look around you as you literally are sitting in an ocean of energy. Your thoughts, feelings and actions you personally choose are set at your own vibration and they resonate with things that vibrate at an identical frequency. When Truly connects with spirit she seeks that parallel connection to establish that same frequency thus creating connection. This is why meditation is the foundation of her work.


“If you want to know the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” - Nikola Tesla, Physicist (best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current electricity supply system)


Clients also have said “As a client I can’t see spirit, so how do I know they are really there?”. One element of sight is “Orbs”. Yes in some cases orbs are simply refractions of light in low lit areas, but sometimes orbs are spirits in their natural state. They look almost like bubbles and are more commonly captured in photographs, on video or even when watching your baby monitor. Truly did a group reading in March of this year in which her work was video taped. After the clients later viewed their tape they excitedly reported all the heavy orb activity while she was working. Those orbs where the spirits Truly was working with to communicate back and forth with the clients in the room. Orb’s are a form of spiritual energy and do not typically transform into a transparent human form unless they are seeking to communicate. Why transform you ask? Validation. If an orb transforms into a more human form it permits Truly to describe them as they were in their human form. As she relays that description it can help the client validate who is present and confirm Truly is not as nuts as some people tend to think she is.


“Get over it, and accept the inarguable conclusion. The universe is immaterial-mental and spiritual”  – Richard Conn Henry, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University


I hope this blog helps you better understand the relationship and dependency of energy with what she does and also how limitless energy, vibrations and the universe really is.  

This blog was written by Truly’s husband with the assistance of Truly to capture a level of understanding most readers would comprehend. Truly’s husband works in the corporate world and does not posses the spiritual talents Truly does.

Bula (meaning literally health & happiness) from the gorgeous Fijian islands.

My family and I try to visit an exotic place every few years & we fell in love with the South Pacific a while back. Its people are as warm as the weather& the sky and waters are almost the same shade of blue. 

My family always have a laugh when I tell them I'm going on vacation. They know spirit knows no such thing and will take the opportunity to use my gift no matter where I am in the world. This was no exception. Fiji is a developing country and with that come hardship and dangers. It also has challenges with medical care & drugs (both legal & otherwise). Their government is working hard to change things but change is always slow. The culture in Fiji is very Christian. The term medium is not understood. The closest thing to it is "Re Re" which is like a magician or spiritual fortune teller. It's not always accepted, so I spent a lot of time keeping my spiritual mouth shut. The 1st spirit that insisted I speak was a man by the name of "JoJon" or 'Jo'. I was meditating on a massage table on the beach of south sea island when he just would not stop talking and changing my breathing rhythm. I asked the lady giving me my massage if she knew what a medium was and then explained that I talk to dead people. I could tell she was scared, but curious. I asked her if she knew of a man in his late 30's who passed suddenly in an accident. From the way I felt I was sure it was a sudden impact to the chest because I couldn't seem to catch my breath. My face and chest had tremendous pressure on them. He told me he wore a uniform and kept giving me the letter “J”. She pretty much stopped my massage and looked at me in awe. She told me his name was "Jo" and he died around Easter time. He was a security guard on the island and he was in her extended family. He had a horrible head on collision with a bus. He left behind a wife (related to the massage therapist), who was still crying over his passing. He wanted his wife to know that it was an accident and he didn't want to go. He wanted her to know he was alright and that he loved her but she needs to carry on with her life. The massage therapist said she would pass on my/his message and finished the massage. When I was done she asked if I was Christian. I said yes In fact I am a minister. She smiled and had a sigh of relief. I guess most “Re Re's” she's been in contact with are not. 

I also passed on messages from a grandma who raised her granddaughter, a father who suddenly 'disappeared' (he had a heart attack on his boat and fell into the sea) and a brother that was mixed up with the wrong crowd. So much for vacation! LOL! Anyway know I'll be back in the swing of things very shortly.

As always thanks for reading. Love & light, Truly 

Wow! What an incredible journey the last month has been. I am so thankful for the gifts received and expressed from spirit.

My last blog post was about a man who’s sister in law had a reading with me, and as he was about to pass away in the hospital yet he came through. It is literally the next post down titled ‘the weight of it all’.  On a recent Friday morning, I had the pleasure with speaking with Jim again. His wife Karen came to see me. Her sister told her the incredible story of what had transpired and she just had to come meet me. She drove a little over 3 hours to come for a 9 am appointment! One of the reasons why I have an assistant do all of my bookings is because I do not want to know anything about my clients prior to sitting with them! This case was no exception. When Karen sat with me I treated her like every other reading. Explained how I work¸ what to expect and then started. She did not tell me who she was, or who she was looking for.  I connected with a few spirits in the room and to be honest, I can’t remember it all now. Her husband was the 1st person in the room. He came in just as he had before with a hospital gown, major breathing issues, blood issue, hovering above the body (not coherent) before passing. He explained that he had not been well for a while, but had no intention of passing away. He honestly did not know he was going until it was too late (I later found out that he had his DNR removed).   When I described this man to her she knew exactly who he was. She had read all my blogs, information and was not sure that he would come though. Her sister assured her that he would be here.  It had been 5 long weeks and she shed tears of joy knowing that he was alright. I myself was shocked that he was able to manifest that fast. Our communication was a bit trying at times, but none the less he got his messages across to her.  She has a journey ahead of her, but I am certain that she knows she is not alone. It was a real blessing to be able to connect these two people again. Thank you Karen. Many Blessings to you and a speedy recovery to your Jim.

I have always had a fascination with funerals. The daughter of a minister & medium, I guess you could see why. When I became a minister earlier this year, I knew that I would be seeing more funerals in my future. I did not know how interesting they would be. A previous client contacted me on a Wednesday night. Her father had passed and her family wanted to have a ‘celebration of life’. I was saddened to hear of his passing as I knew that she had lost her mother some time ago. She told me the celebration was on Sunday, so we had to meet asap. When she and her brothers came in, I could feel the weight of their loss. It had been a few days since he had passed, and although they knew he was not well with a terminal prognosis, we are never really ready for the passing of a parent. We talked in lengths about Doug. We laughed and cried as they told me wonderful stories of the man that loved them right to the end; the man they called Poppa.  I took quite a few hours trying to figure out what stories I should share. The day came and I really wasn’t sure what to expect. You see, usually when I attend funerals, I see the deceased. I see them standing with their families and I see them comforting their friends. I see them sending the love that we who are here left in the physical realm miss so much. Doug was no different. I arrived at the hall a few minutes early in hopes that I’d be able to see him right away. I should have thought about it. I know it takes a tremendous amount of energy for them to manifest, and there wasn’t quite enough there yet. About half an hour in, there he was…. Hovering over where the food should have been. You see Doug was about feeding people, one of his very admirable traits. His family and friends had started gathering around and there was no food yet. When I told my client this, she laughed so hard. She said that it was just like him and then went off to tell her brothers what I was seeing. Later in the celebration he asked me where his jacket was. Puzzled, I asked the family, and they figured out that he was looking for a new jacket. All the members of the soccer club he belonged to had new red jackets, and he did not have one! What a giggle we had over that. The last time I saw Doug was when he stood behind his sister as she said a few words to the crowd about the brother that she missed so very much.  The out pour of love was beautiful. Although this family was missing the 2 people who brought them into existence, they were surrounded by love & affection from their family & friends. Thank you Michelle & Family for allowing me to help you celebrate such a wonderful man! Blessings upon you all.

Now, for the Piece de résistance as they say. This past Saturday I was Officiating a wedding for two of the nicest, well suited people I have ever met. Kelli had been a work colleague of my husbands from a few years back. I had seen her as a client in 2010, and she had been back twice since then. The last time bringing her lovely fiancé Matt.  They told me of their desire to be wed and then surprised me by asking if I would help them. I was ecstatic. The chemistry and love the two of these people exude was beautiful. We talked a few times over what they wanted and how I could help them achieve the ceremony they wanted. One of the things that I knew about this couple was their losses. Both had lost parents. Luckily for us, on their last visit with me, BOTH their mothers came in. I was thankful for their help, and they were thankful for the confirmation and acceptance of one another’s life partner by their mothers.  Fast forward to Saturday!  I completely forgot that the wedding was to take place in the Distillery District of Toronto. This is an incredibly old and spiritually active part of town. Busy was an understatement. On first arrival I was a bit frazzled, but I was able to get grounded fairly quickly. The guests were gathering in the gallery and the groom was anxiously waiting his first look at the bride.  When she walked in the energy became so intense. One of the things I like to do when performing a wedding ceremony is to stand in the crowd. You see the ceremony has very little to do with me, its all about the couple, so they should be the focal point. As I took my place in the crowd, I became teary. I could feel each mother beside me. I also became aware of a male (I still do not know who he is). I was able to work through the energy and carry on with the ceremony. It was a beautiful full circle moment. Not wanting to distract the happy couple from their friends and family in the physical, I decided to hang on to the information and try to find a time later on to tell them what I felt. Luckily my husband was able to take a few photos of not only the ceremony but also the speeches at the reception. I was able to ‘show’ them where their parents where during both. In that last meeting, their mothers told me the colour of dresses they would be wearing to the wedding. The bride's mother was in Green, and the groom's mother in Pink. The Blue & Red orbs are other male spirits who were present, but I was not able to identify them.  I was able to create a photo of where I could feel or see their presences. The newly weds left directly for their honeymoon so I have not had a chance to connect with them yet, but I did send them the information via Text Message. Isn’t technology grand! I have loaded them here for you to see…. The 1st is the original photo, and the 2nd shows where I felt the energies…. See how I was directed to one side in the 1st photo, and how 2 spirits were on that one side…. the energy was very intense. Anyway, I just wanted you to see what or how I feel. Kelli & Matt, thank your for allowing me to help you on your special day. The love & gratitude you expressed for one another could last nothing short of an eternity. Many blessings to you and your families.

To all of you who have allowed me to serve you, your families and God, Thank you. I am blessed and honoured to help in any way I can. With that being said, this minister, medium, and momma is tired! Not only did I host an event on Friday, taught a workshop Saturday morning, with the wedding in the evening, but both my boys have come down with a cold. Hibernation here we come! Sending love & light out to all of you. Xo Truly

Sometimes people ask me what its like to be a medium. Most of the time I smile and tell them how much I love connecting people with their loved ones who have crossed over. But just like in any profession, mediums have challenging days too.

Yesterday. Yeah, yesterday was tough.

It was 8:30 pm & I was sitting with my last client of the day. I had read for her once before. She told me that her last reading was (her words) ‘incredible’. I had described her loved ones perfectly and she was anxious to make those connections again.  I treated her like any other reading…. As I honestly don’t remember any of my readings.

I started as I always do…. Prayer asking for protection and love. I opened the spiritual ‘door’ to let those who have crossed over come in & then I waited…..  When I started describing to this lady the 1st person in the room & how he died, she really had only one question for me. ‘Are you sure the first man you described dead? Or could he still be living somehow?’

When I asked him, he wouldn’t (or maybe couldn’t) respond. He then started talking about his spouse. He also gave me more information about his personality, and more about who he was. He gave me a sense of urgency, that the messages that he was giving me had to be passed along right away.

She thought this was her brother in law. He had been admitted to hospital earlier in the day for some routine or maintenance care. He had a disease, ALS or Lupis or something to that effect. She told me that they had put him in a coma to help him heal faster. A wave of grief came over me. I knew he was still alive. I also knew he wouldn’t be coming out again.

This is the part of my work I dislike. I learned a long time ago, it is not my job to change the messages. Its not my job to judge what is and is not important. I am only the telephone line to the other side.

I told this lady that I was very concerned for him, and that I felt that she should do what she could to support her sister as soon as she could. I don’t think she believed what she was hearing.

 We carried on talking to the other family members who had crossed in the room, and the angel that also appeared. The rest of the reading was positive, filled with hope and love from her family and for things coming up in her life.

When I finished with her, I started my evening prayers. I asked God to help this family, as well as the many others that I come in contact with each day. I hoped with all my heart that the information I had given this lady was wrong. That somehow he was going to be fine and that their lives would continue on.

8:30 this morning I received an email from this lady. Her brother in law passed away some time around 8 am.

It’s a heavy thing, doing what I do. Talking about death, talking to dead people, its not always easy. I think that most people are afraid. They are afraid of what I do, what I know and what will be said. I think they are afraid of death.  I really wish they weren’t afraid of me.

The life of a medium is lonely. I think because of their fear, most people wont keep in touch or let me in. Sometimes I feel like people only contact me when they need something from the other side. I’m sure that feeling is not something specific to me, but some days it certainly feels that way.

When I was a kid, I had a hard time differentiating between the living and the ‘dead’. In truth, I had more friends who were ‘dead’ than living. I’ve been an outsider most of my life. I guess that’s why I’ve kept to myself a lot. Maybe that’s why I seem private or sometimes cold. I’ve had a life time of learning that when I let people in, they don’t usually stay long.

Days like today I really ask myself if I’m doing the right thing. Should I be working as a medium? Is this the best way I can be in service to others? Is this the best way to contribute to the earth? Should I be telling people everything I receive?

Yes. As heartbreaking and heavy as it is, this work is needed. At this moment in time, this is how the world needs me.

Tomorrow is a brand new day. It will be filled with new people and new adventures. I’m excited for it. I’m grateful that when I put my head on my pillow tonight, that God will wash away most memories of the messages I shared today. I’m thankful for the peace that comes when I sleep.

Thanks for taking the time. Love & Light,

Truly

Truly, What happens when we die? I've just lost someone very close to me and cannot understand why. 

Great questions. Let me start by saying I'm sorry for your loss. Whether it was a person or a pet each life serves a purpose and it is always sad when another light goes out on the earth. Why is a tricky question and it could be for a few reasons. It is really so individual that I can't generalize an answer. I am sorry. I can answer what happens though...

From what I've been told the soul is very clever. It actually knows when there is the threat of death and can/ does literally jump out of the physical body before passing. This is how we get near death experiences & astral travel (although this is not dying). The soul is attached to the body through an umbilical like cord. When it leaves it still remains attached, until such a time when the physical body ceases to function. In an 'out of body' or 'near death' experience, you'll hear of people saying they were hovering above the body, still able to see & hear all that was going on in the room. When this happens the person has no physical connection and therefore will not feel any pain or any comforts unfortunately. Once the physical body stops functioning the soul is then disconnected. They are then considered 'earth bound'. A good depiction of this is actually in the movie Ghost with Patrick Swayze and Whoopie Goldberg. Although the depiction of the medium is a bit cheesy. The spirit will remain this way until they become accustomed to their new metaphysical body, see that their funeral and other arrangements have been made and help their family to cope with their transition. Quite often shortly after the funeral, a family member will see this person in a dream. This would be the easiest way for them to let their family know that they made out ok and that they are fine. 

At this point they would move into the state of limbo. Limbo is a neutral state. It's literally the energy or space between heaven and earth. When we are in limbo we attach ourselves to a person, place or thing. Everyone passes through limbo and it is not the purgatory other religions would have you believe. Sometimes people will choose to stay here because they aren't ready to move forward. They usually attach themselves to family or loved ones who are still struggling with their passing. 

When they are ready they will move into heaven. They will do something called 'life review' or the 'judgement'. This is when we process all that took place in our lifetime. When this is completed they have their free will back to come and go as they please. At this time they will have the opportunity to come back as a new life. Usually not remembering anything from the previous life. In my experience it isn't unusual for a spirit to take 20 years or so to decide to come back! 


Please remember friends we have free will on this side and it also extends to the other side. How quickly or slowly one moves through the different stages is entirely up to them. 


I do hope that helps a bit. Know that whatever stage your loved one is in that they can and do hear you. So talk to them. They will be comforted by your words and prayers. This will help them to process faster and hopefully more to a better place of communication. 
In any event, I wish you all love, and peace at this time.

Love & Light, Truly
