I am just playing my angel role LOL
They really are everywhere, you just have to open your heart
I'm glad I helped you to have a better day

I don't believe in an after-life either. I'm not religious and I don't believe in a higher power or heaven or hell or spirits.

I did what I had to do to heal. I asked him to come to me for years as a child, at least 12. It doesn't matter to me if it was really him. In my mind, him just being there in my dream was peace enough for me. Our conversation, though it was trivial, was enough for me to say goodbye. Maybe not to him exactly, but to all the tortured thoughts I had relating to him. It was peace for me. I don't believe he's shining down on me or that I can talk to him or that he hears me. I did what I had to do to heal myself and I'm satisfied with that.

Maybe because I was a child, I was more open-minded, I don't know really.

I hope you find similar, if not nicer, peace. And don't beat yourself up over something that is now out of your hands. We all get busy and put off contact with loved ones. My mom is constatly harping on me about never coming to see her. Family love is special and he knew you loved him. Family love is unconditional and forever. Be at peace just knowing you had a brother that you loved and has moments with. No one, not even death can take your memories away from you.

Best wishes.

That's too bad. I would be very depressed if I believed that. But that's O.K. Everyone has to believe something and if you are happy, that is all that counts. All is as it should be. The world would be a boring place if we didn't have multiple beliefs, it's just really sad that some think their beliefs are the one and only reality. This is what causes hate and wars. (I'm not implying that with you)

Good luck
