Loss

Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to.

A cat because I’ve no pictures of humans – my phone is too young

Plus life is life and all life is precious. Coming from a family of animal lovers, my lost loved ones won’t be insulted.

In fact, when I was young my mum said something I’ve never forgotten:

“We’re a family, there’s your dad and I, you and Neil, and the dog. And if I’m honest most times I prefer the dog!”

That caused a real family fit of hysterics, I think we all agreed. It was my mum who taught me all life matters, and God who reminds us that he cries when even a sparrow dies.

It’s brutal to say goodbye in this life to anyone you love, person or animal, but for those of us with a strong connection to the idea that life goes on, which it has to as we’re animated by atoms and atoms can’t be destroyed, there is that comfort brought about by the idea that we came from and return to the spirit world.

My cousin’s husband once challenge me on that, saying he didn’t believe it and how did I feel about that? I said I didn’t mind because if I was wrong I wouldn’t know, and if I was right he had to face me. Win/win! In the meantime I felt good about my beliefs and that would do me.

I now know, as I never sought to be a medium it simply surfaced in me when the time was right, that life does go on and those in spirit can communicate very effectively and very accurately. I have actual proof to my personal satisfaction.

Right or wrong, those core beliefs are a good way to live. Although I miss every single person and pet I’ve ever lost, the thing I missed the most was when my mediumship closed down for 7 years during the menopause. It came back, but I was lost without it.

It’s the most giving, loving, compassionate, and funny thing you can be.

Not a cheery blog but I will finish with a quick story that I hope will make you smile, I promise you that it’s true.

I once channelled a sister at a demonstration of mediumship, as in not-one-to-one, in a hall. She chatted away and the evidence was okay but not as strong as I would have liked, so I asked her for something that would absolutely convince her sister that it was her. I still laugh now when I think about it. She said:

“Remind her of when we went scrumping in the apple orchard. We were up a tree stealing apples when the farmer saw us and came over. I climbed out of the tree but she slipped and her underwear caught on the edge of the branch. She fell out of the tree and out of her undies! Had to run away without them!”

The sister’s reaction?

“The b*tch! She promised she would never tell anyone that!”

As you may image, it was uproar in the hall. Oddly, the departed really know how to cheer you up.

Best love

You know something though? The saddest thing you can lose is appreciation of the people you have around you right now. Make sure they’re the right people that you can appreciate. People who warm your heart and light up your life. 💖💖💖

I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx

  1. My family also believe I love our cat and the strays more than them 😁. As for the story, something similar happened with me, I was always climbing trees and one time I was hanging with a skirt 😆. Your story is hilarious 😂
