Questions from the back of the card: Afterlife

the interesting idea... the start of this project... the conversations to come

I'm a member of Post Crossing, the internet site for postcard exchange. I sent a card to another Post Crosser, Ilona from Germany. She asked that people tell her which magical power they would like to have. Her question really made me think!

In turn, I thought it would be an interesting project to ask people to pose Thought-Provoking Questions. I would do my best to answer with my opinion, and I would encourage others to add theirs.

And, so was born this blog! I hope that it will be the home for many interesting conversations in the year ahead!

Meet me one more time?

Thomas, a patient Post Crosser from Germany asks - on this lovely, elegant card...

Do you believe in different lives and a meet up with known souls/people in next or further ones? Can you imagine making an appointment with somebody you really love to spend another life with him/her again?

I have always tried to tell people I love that I love them. I hope I succeed. There are some, I know, who might not know how much they have meant to me. To meet them again, to tell them they mattered so very much is, for me, where the comfort of this question resides.

After?

I hope there IS some kind of after. Irma, from Finland, wonders too:

Is there life after death?

In the Laurel Hill Cemetery, where I am a volunteer, there's a gravestone that reads, in part, "Life is eternal; death is merely a change of condition." That is the way I like to think I think about this question.

You?
