I wish I had some words of comfort, but, I have never learned to live with loss. The only comfort I find is in being quite sure we will all meet again in the spirit world on the other side of the veil. Byron is not dead, he has gone on ahead, and he's waiting for you.

You are exactly correct. Your friend and family members are not dead. they have just transitioned from the physical world to the spirit world.

You do need yo remember there in the spirit world; there is no time. You may stay here another 60 years or more; but when you cross into the Sp[irit world; to your friend it will seem as is they were just waiting for you a minute or two.

Two Bears.
