Heaven’s WINDOW…

Heaven’s WINDOW…

This might be one of the most difficult and yet the most rewarding posts that I’ve needed to write. It’s not that this topic is hard, it is my desire to make sure I find just the right words. I’m sure you heard that word…NEED to write. You have probably guessed by now that very often my topics come out of my own life, sometimes complicated and yet always an incredible step in my journey through LIFE. I’ve been contemplating writing this for about a month now. So, it is time!

I know you are all aware that I was very close to my brother Bill and that his transitioning into the life beyond has been very difficult for me. At the end of July, his wife and family and  all of us had to face the memories of events of a year ago. My inner BEING just wanted to feel and hear Bill as tears fell. But, my fun memories of laughter and love could bring me out of that slump, like Bill here in Michigan with Marj and I…BIG BILL we always called him!

Heaven’s WINDOW… no matter the view, the pathway is open to every single human here on earth. My awareness of  the TRUE possibilities were opened wide durning  my Near-Death-Experience. I can still visualize myself after returning to my body and recuperating in an outdoor gazebo in my back yard at the time. I could take myself back into that incredible place in the light. It was not to stay…but to rejuvenate and heal my body all at the same time. That ability faded with time.  But,  I am sure I simply allowed that to happen as life with my grateful but mystified husband, two small children and another one on the way soon, BECAME my life once again. But, to this day I still have pretty vivid memories of that window into Heaven from my earthly body.

I had a HUGE visual and incredible experience with Anne, Marj’s daughter a year after her death. I KNEW the possibilities. I am choosing not to repeat the countless times I have had that window OPEN so I could help other people. But, they all point to the REALITY that not only does it exist…we ALL can access it!

I have talked “some” about my experiences thinking and knowing Bill was near by and with me. But, I also think I have missed a great many left messages. During my morning meditations I sometimes use quiet but meaningful music. I want words most of the time, and sometimes simple silence is best. Peter Kater’s incredible piano talent combined with a native American flutist are some of my favorite songs and albums. But, there are too many to mention and I also have some other very favorite musicians I listen to through Amazon Prime where I can search and listen easily.

I find Peter Kater’s  background fascinating.  A few months ago I got pretty attached to one in particular from him called Heaven’s Window. At the time, it was the music not the title that drew me in. I would be in deep meditation and I heard my name being called. My logical self took off my earphones quickly and went to the bedroom where I thought it was my husband calling me…he was sound asleep. Hmm. I felt too detached after that and never really followed up until it started happening very often…but only when I was deeper in meditation. I began asking…”Who is this? Please help me know and recognize who you are and why you are contacting me? Bill, is this you? I thought of Bill, but I kept thinking I’d recognize his voice or recognize something he would DO to get my attention. He had such a sense of humor, I kept thinking it would be in a funny way. SO… I made that request again many times. But, I will admit my life was giving me way too many distractions. Click here to listen to Peter Kater’s Heaven’s Window along with a video version of it.

Soon after that…I was in my car with my friend Mary after a book club event.  My phone attaches into my car and on my screen. I received a call from an office and I went to answer it…and instead came in a call from BILL ASHBY…my brother! I gasped a bit and Mary and I looked at this together. Of course no one was there. I didn’t try to call back even though I was tempted. I knew my sister in law kept his phone and thought I needed to be sure it wasn’t her by mistake. Well…she said no, she wasn’t even home, and my thoughts leaped. I KNEW then it was Bill trying to get my attention! I finally connected the morning voice calling to me to that call…but why didn’t I make the connection?! This was his way of PAY ATTENTION I am trying to contact you! You see…there’s a previous story.

Bill & I were together at our house a good year after my Dad died. It was a simple visit deciding on some plans. We received a phone call at my house. (Back before cell, but number calling showed) It was my Dad’s HOME number that had been gone for over 3 years. He and I answered together…no voice and no words from any phone company saying the number was no longer in service. Together we marveled and wondered…from DAD? Soon after a clock of my Dad’s on my mantel went off bonging 12 times at midnight when I had disconnected it long ago. Only a few nights later I had a dream to go to our then TOTALLY empty house of my Dad’s…gutted with construction asking me to find a box. I asked Bill to go with me even though he thought I was nuts…”There’s NO WAY”, Bill said. The house was gutted. Long story short, going together, we found a box and in it were indeed some treasures.! One is a diamond I wear now along with my own and another given to me by Mom before she died. It’s my reminder of ALL possibilities that exist in the afterlife! ALL of this happened WITH BILL and I together! I believed it all…and now Bill was trying to let me know how REAL it ALL is!! I knew beyond any DOUBT that Bill arranged that phone call.

NOW…I am OPEN each and every day seeing SIGNS from my brother Bill in my everyday moments! It’s beautiful and I cherish each and every one of his communications! I have had SO MANY now… these blossoms came out right after I heard Bill’s voice letting me know he was THERE again in meditation. It is a plant I have nurtured and kept an angel in the plant remembering the day he gave it to me. But, it hadn’t blossomed until that morning! Coincidence you say…I say NOT at all!

Believe in Heaven’s WINDOW…it exists for YOU and all of us!
