Dodie,

Wow--your post was the first thing I read this morning...what a nice way to start the day!  Thank you!

Nyte, you  poor thing!  That must be utterly miserable.  I hope you're better soon, if not already!

Hi Doe
It is my loss that you are not living here in Oz because i could have a ball with you as a friend.  There is a youthful innocence of life that will be with you forever. You must light up everyone that comes in contact with you.  You are blessed to have him stand beside you gently holding your hand and allowing to you to lean on his shoulder during the recent hard times, his love shines bright. I see you looking in to his eyes often. He tells me that if you stop focusing you will see him in the shadows late at night.
Bed times are special and represent solis and "we time". he foresees another to take his place and a joy will return to the physical plane to keep you safe untill the time of passing. The man is not a replacement as this is not possible. Your love is eternal and never unbonded but he sees the need to give you things he can no longer do. The quiet times are haunting in my mind as i visulize the memories of your past. My heart aches at the moment of a hearts break past felt and it reminds me of my own heart tearing at Dads passing . Of this we are kindered spirits.
Sorry that was a bit of a sad moment but he wanted me to see all of it.
Can i give him a chinese burn ..no .. bugger ok i will get him back later .
Now you "Pixie girl"  im going to shoot that hat later before it breeds.
Things like that can run amok . That book you keep fiddling around with, you need to finish and publish. You are really good at this and i feel that it will lead somewhere good for you and the development of the removal of these doubts that cloud a wasted pristine mind. You are lucky more than you take notice of starting with the kids. I suggest that when they give you the sh*ts take them out side and use the gardern hose on them. Nothing like a good soaking to get things going.
Why have you stopped studying. You were on the right path then you went sideways.
Theres a snapshot of a moment in time someone tall using a hand to playfully mess up your hair and you ducking and laughing.  A christmas past?
Ok i gotta stop .
Cheers Pete

Well, Pete, I've actually been checking my email every 2 minutes (what else is new?!   ) to find out if I will get to go to Oz in June (what's the opposite of clicking the heels of my ruby slippers together and asking to go home?--maybe I'll just click the toes together--when I GET ruby slippers, of course!--and say, "There's no place like Australia" over and over).  I've actually thought that you'd be a blast to hang out with (maybe over some yummy Australian Chardonnay), too!  You sound like a lot of fun.


Yes--I think that's also known as "immaturity"!!  

And yes, I AM so blessed that I still have a hard time figuring out why.  He is there through everything in ways that astonish me, and always with a way of looking at things as a "bigger picture"--very unlike me.  I do see his eyes all the time, especially when my own are closed; when I'm quietly freaking out on airplanes I just keep staring into them, and he keeps saying, "Safe with me."  Calms me right down!

Bedtime IS for "we time"; I always feel a sense of relief when I get under the covers and basically say, "OK, what should we talk about?"  That's when the beautiful "light shows" start, and the room is flooded with colors, and I see figures moving around me.  I'm never sure if one of them is him, or all are...hard to explain, but maybe what you said about not focusing is a hint.

Whatever a Chinese burn is, I'LL be giving him one if he thinks he's going anywhere "for my own good"--I lecture him on that one all the time!  As far as a "replacement" on this plane is concerned, my attitude is basically, "Been there, done that."  It's funny that you brought that up though, because I was just saying to him a couple of days ago that I feel kind of like I've been in "foster care"  in the two relationships I've been in since his passing--just being looked after and kept going until he had the chance to come around again.  Maybe that's what he was talking about?  It had BETTER be!!!  

Yes, the book...I know, I know....  And I think I'm supposed to be studying the Bible (and other sacred texts when I get done with that), but I've been my usual lackadaisical self about that, too!

Some of those last moments were, as you say, heartbreaking.  I couldn't imagine at the time how I could possible survive.  You've obviously had the same kind of pain of loss--sorry it got brought back to you on my behalf.

I'll have to think about the tall person mussing up my hair at Christmas (?) time.  I'm thinking that it might be kind of a visual metaphor for something else I'm thinking of, but maybe something else will come to me.

Pete, thank you so much for all of this!  I'm so glad you've gotten to know "Davo" a little better, and vice versa!

Hi Doe
Davo is cool and he not going anywhere away from you. He reconizes the fact that you have physical needs and wants you to have the best of both planes.
Yes dave isnt the only one that visits at night. You have 2 men and 1 lady as well
A chinese burn is when you grab someones wrist with both hands close together and twist them in opposite directions causing a rub on the flesh.
Being an empath has its moments i didnt mind the sadness it comes with the job in this profession. Dave needed me to feel it so i had to drop my shield for a moment.
Thank you for letting me read you and for all the work that you do here selflessly helping others. Im a better person for knowing you.
Cheers Pete

Whoa, Pete.  I'm just kind of sitting here dumbfounded.  I just said to him, "You really have been talking to him, haven't you?"  And I got a big, clear, "YES"--it was the clearest communication I've had with him all day.

Two men, and one woman--exactly.  The woman hasn't been too happy with me, but she's calmed down about it a lot over the past few months.  I think that there are others around who just pass through and tell me about themselves, and others who say nothing, but the major players are two men and one woman.

And you've got the other issue exactly right, too.  I've told him that it doesn't matter--story of our lives!  We get by, though...

.  Guess I'll need to lecture him again on that point!

Sheesh.  How do you do that?

I appreciate your letting your shield down to see the hard stuff.  It's nice to have people around who understand, although, as I said, I'm sorry that you had to relive some of your own pain.

Thank you so much, and thank you for what you said about me.  I've been sick, and in a horrible mood all day, and now I just feel peace again.

You're a really wonderful person, Pete.  And gosh--I think you might be psychic!  

Have a wonderful day (it IS day there now, right?--of course, you're behind us, time-wise, so if you want to know what's going to happen today I'll be glad to let you know!   _

All the best,

Doe (almost considering losing the hat...)
