We\u2019re friends and sometimes we work together, but Mike and I aren\u2019t close.<\/p>\n

So when news of Mike\u2019s mum\u2019s passing finally reached me, it was two weeks after the funeral. By an awful coincidence, the day after his mum passed on, I\u2019d called Mike to settle some work-related matters. Mike, being the strong silent type of guy and a consummate professional, didn\u2019t mention it either. I only found out later, through a mutual friend. Agh.<\/p>\n

A month passed. Two. We were both busy, didn\u2019t contact each other much.<\/p>\n

Until one night when I had a dream.<\/p>\n

I was in a room filled with soft white light. She stood behind my right shoulder and wouldn\u2019t show her face. I was guided to a large cork board hanging from the wall.<\/p>\n

Pinned on the board: watercolours. Charcoal caricatures, the type you get done when you\u2019re on holiday in a tourist trap like Venice. Polaroids, mostly faded. All of family.<\/p>\n

I recognised one face in all of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes. I\u2019m his mother.\u201d
\n\u2014 And your message?
\n\u201cTell him\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 *\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 *<\/p>\n

I wasn\u2019t sure at first. I was aware of Mike\u2019s religious beliefs. I knew his religion taught that death was final, followed by judgement, heaven and hell. His faith took a strong view against psychic mediums. Also, Mike didn\u2019t know this side of me (at that time, I wasn\u2019t entirely out of the closet in terms of spirituality). Would it affect our relationship?<\/p>\n

Well\u2026 nothing ventured, nothing gained.<\/p>\n

So I called.<\/p>\n

He was surprisingly open, and touched by his mother\u2019s concern for the family even beyond this life. He even asked for advice on how to contact his mother himself \u2014 I didn\u2019t expect this at all.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes my mind still drifts to her when I\u2019m working. I get into this headspace where I\u2019m in a white room, having a conversation with her. Is it my imagination?\u201d
\n\u2014 Have faith, Mike. That\u2019s when she visits.<\/span><\/p>\n

*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 *\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 *
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Mike wasn’t the only one touched by this experience. So was I.<\/p>\n

I already know this well, but I was amazed yet again at how far our loved ones in Spirit will go just to make that connection with us.<\/p>\n

Grief is a devastating force. Mike and his mum were close. When she left this earth, part of his soul died with her. She knew this \u2014 and planned her comeback.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned, Mike and I aren\u2019t close. I\u2019d never met Mike\u2019s family before. Still, she didn\u2019t give up, didn\u2019t stop searching for someone who knew Mike and who could serve as a channel of communication. In other words, a medium.<\/p>\n

Mike is a good person, a popular guy with lots of friends. Could she have taken two months to search for someone within his social circle who could help out?<\/p>\n

I don’t\u00a0know.<\/p>\n

I only know that death is not the end, but a door. A door that is sometimes shut, but never fully locked. And this door between the earthly and the spiritual realms is opened far, far more often than we think.<\/p>\n

So the next time you find yourself daydreaming, and a reminder of someone who\u2019s passed on suddenly pops in your head. A vision, a voice, a fragrance, anything.<\/p>\n

Have faith. That\u2019s when they visit.
