Why does it seem the veil between life and death is dissolving? As with Betsy and Stephen (the author), it’s because more and more of us are looking beyond the death of the body. We are no longer disheartened when death descends like a bird of prey, stealing away within its talons the body of our loved ones. We realize that with death, the body grows cold to the touch and the icy chill of death descends upon our flesh, blood, and bone. As the body of our loved ones loses its heat, including the lump of muscle we call our heart, the heat of love within the heart of our spirit and soul remains strong. More and more life after death love stories like that of Betsy and Stephen, Cheryl Page and the departed love of her life ( Mystic Richness) , as well as with Whitley Strieber and his departed wife ( The Afterlife Revolution ), are taking place all over the planet. The heat of love generated by heart-to-heart communication between so many of us and our departed loved ones dissolves the thinning, now vanishing veil. Just as the phenomenon of global warming is melting the solid walls of Arctic ice, so the immense love generated by the union of that Arizona sun burning in our hearts and in the hearts of those we lost is dissolving the icy veil between life and death, between heaven and earth . . .
