Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Use Your Head Instead of Your Heart to Get Your Ex Back

By Ricardo d Argence

If you're serious about finding a way to win back love, then it means you're going to have to start using your head and stop following your heart! It really is that simple.

So let's look at this! Your heart is no doubt telling you to drop everything, chase down your ex and make them listen to what you have to say, whether they want to or not.

Your heart feels like all that needs to happen is for your ex to listen and understand how you feel and that your ex will just forget everything that may be wrong with the relationship and then just simply re-start the relationship. However, this is not the case.

To win back love your head would never tell you to do any of that, instead your head would say back off, get a grip and take your time. Guess which one you should be listening to! Yep, your head!

Leave your ex to himself or herself at this time, do not call, do not plan any accidental meetings when you know your ex will be some place particular and do not write love letters to them. Do not try to contact them in any way.

By contacting them, you're making yourself appear desperate, a pain in the butt and someone that no right minded person would even want to be around never mind consider dating again.

When it comes to your ex, you want to increase your value like that rare diamond that is worth more than any other jewel. Give your ex time to wonder where you may be, what you are doing and why you have not tried to contact them. Give this time and before you realize it, your ex will want to contact you.

If you're stuck with a problem and the first person you would usually call is your ex, then you're going to have to figure out how to solve that problem yourself. Not only does this enhance your standing with your ex, because they realize that you can cope on your own, but it also enhances your own standing in your own head.

If you figure out how to cook that favorite meal that your ex used to cook for you � you realize you can cope! If you figure out how to change the oil in your car � again you realize that you can cope!

You can win back love using calmness and good judgment. After doing so, your ex will feel more at ease about contacting you himself or herself. Allowing your passions to run rampant will only lead you to your own disadvantages of getting your ex back.

Tell your heart to hush up and listen to your head, if you want to win back your ex and resume your relationship.

Comforting Poem On Life After Death By 'Afterlife Phil G'

By Afterlife Phil G

Visitors to the website created by Afterlife Phil G have found much peace in his words of comfort poem. Opening with the beautiful lines: "I have not gone. My body is beyond your reach, but my soul is touching yours."

If you know of someone who is grieving the loss of a loved one, like so many others you may like to print a copy of the full poem from Afterlife Phil G's website on life after death.

"I was recently asked by Joe, in Australia, how to help a friend accept the loss of his wife. He asks: "Everything has been kept the same as if she was still living in the house. Is this wrong?"

"It depends on the age of the person involved. If we are talking about a younger person, who still has their life ahead of them, there is a point where they should move on, let go, but they don't have to live life without being able to contact them. Accepting of the situation, yes, but still being able to retain contact.

For parents who have suffered the loss of a child, or for older people who have lost their partner, it can be of enormous comfort to leave a room untouched, and be able to walk into it and feel as if they are still in the room. This is not just a wish but a reality, and if you follow my advice, you will be able to feel them in the room and verify it.

My 'CoffeeTime' video combined with my poem and thoughts about contacting the afterlife have worked well for many, to sit in a room untouched, or holding an object or photo, and feeling the presence of the one they miss. My website on life after death shares my poem, video and more to help you.

The poem came to me in a light dream a few years ago. Visitors to my site will know that I accidentally found a way for ordinary people to contact family in the afterlife and verify it, and not long after writing my book, I felt a strong need to have something I could share for free, to help a large number of people gain comfort from my simple technique on contacting the afterlife. The result is a poem which came to me one night, which I remembered vividly in the morning, made even more strange by phrasing I would not normally use. It truly is a gift I am pleased to share.

If you miss someone, I hope you will find comfort by visiting either of my websites philg.net.au or afterlifephilg.com and looking at my poem, video or other information. Don't Grieve - theyre still with you. Phil G

A View of Grief and Loss

By Maurice Turmel PhD

Grief and loss are typically associated with death and dying, usually involving the loss of a loved one. But the category can also encompass loss of job, home or relationship as additional dimensions of experience. Grief resources and recovery programs are subsumed under this umbrella and are usually designed to help us with all aspects of loss.

Losing a loved one is what we typically associate with grief and loss. But losses of many types can also generate powerful grief reactions. We include here broken relationships, loss of a pet and loss of employment. When the loss experience strikes we immediately want relief and begin seeking some kind of recovery help.

Today we can see grief and loss associated with divorce, relationship breakup, pet grief and loss of employment. We can also see associations with the loss of ones home, place of business and career aspirations as some hopes and dreams never materialize. We tend not to see these as grief and loss categories, but in fact they are losses that affect us in similar ways as losing a loved one.

The main point of this article is that dealing with grief and loss has a lot of common dimensions over all of its related categories. We mourn the loss of a loved one. We grieve the loss of a pet. We agonize over a broken relationship. We become depressed at the loss of our job.

What is the central point here? Why do we examine grief and loss from all these points of view? Because at the heart of every crisis is an emotional wound. We feel hurt, depressed and sad. We feel lost and afraid. Something we valued has been taken away. We feel pain associated with any loss and that usually elicits anger as a first response. These reactions are typical in every type of grief and loss experience.

It becomes obvious that grief and loss affects many aspects of our life experience. Acknowledging this and accepting responsibility for our recovery from such stress reveals itself as necessary. We can regain our energy and drive by working through the effects of grief and loss. Since the experience is more common than previously thought, any effort we make to deal with grief and loss will have benefits across the breadth of our lives.

The cycle of life includes gaining, losing and gaining again. For example, when a snake crawls into the tall grass to shed its old skin, it's because the new is emerging from underneath and pressing for release. Losses are typically categorized as devastating when, in fact, they are often a prelude to something better. Learning to let go, no matter what the cicumstances is a valuable life lesson.

Losing a loved one is a powerful and devastating experience and one we never solicit consciously. This is the most difficult of all losses and we acknowledge that it is hard to see any benefit in it. But losing and gaining are with us everyday in a great variety of forms. Learning to cope with all types of loss will help us when the big losses strike. Finding the right resources is essential to managing our grief and loss experience.

Dealing with our emotions is central to the recovery process, no matter what type of loss you encounter. Turning to each other for comfort and solace can bring peace and new found friendships. All times of trial have their secret benefits. That is the main lesson from grief and loss.

Our present lives and our past lives are connected and all the memories of our past lives are buried deeply in our subconscious. It is necessary for these memories to be brought to the surface.

For individuals who wish to change their present lives, this is a great tool.

There are two reason for using Past Life Regression even though you may or may not believe in it. The experts believe the following are two main reasons to do this.

*When you make a positive change in your present life, its because of your experience with Past Life Regression. And this is because of your experience with a past life memory.

I Broke up with Her, Now I Want my Girlfriend Back

By Ricardo d Argence

Dumped your girlfriend? Now you want her back. You will need to act quickly. But you dont want to make the same mistakes that most guys do when they are trying desperately to get their ex-girlfriends back.

In trying to win her back youve probably have been sending her gifts, expensive gifts. Your way of telling her how much she means to you and a desperate attempt to win her back.

Chances are none of that has worked, because to be honest it's pretty old hat and your girlfriend wants to see something more honest and much more innovative from you.

Its likely you will need to jump some hoops before your dumped ex-girlfriend will consider taking you back. Even if she is desperate to have you back. You did dump her and its going to be difficult to get over how she feels about that.

There is no question or doubt, you may seriously have hurt her pride and feelings. And she will act accordingly. It will depend on how badly you want her back which will determine how prepared you will be to accept the consequences.

You will need to explain truthfully the reasons for your actions. Its best you take some time to conclude your reason for dumping her. Sit down with her and explain honestly your reasons for your actions.

An apology will definitely be in order along with a promise that this will not occur again, ever. If you truly want her back this should be done with sincerity.

Maybe you panicked as you saw the relationship deepening and getting more and more serious. It's a pretty common feature for some guys and to suddenly feel as they are feeling smothered and overwhelmed in a relationship and instead of sitting down with their girlfriends, they panic.

Before you know it, you have a dumped girlfriend and you're living with regret. So perhaps this is the situation that you have to explain to your ex girlfriend. If it is, again, be honest.

What you must guard against in a situation where you were clearly in the wrong and you over reacted, is that you don't become her punching bag. Don't allow her to use you as an emotional vessel into which she pours out all her frustrations and anger just because she can. So doormat out, understanding and apologetic guy in!

Chances that you both have feelings for each other is good and you will get back together again. You may have dumped your girlfriend, but let her know that you sincerely want to start over again and are not reacting to guilt feelings about dumping her.

I Sense Him Near - But How Do I Know? Phil G Talks About Life After Death

By Afterlife Phil G

Afterlife Phil G shares his mailbag to help Lisa from Britain to connect with her father in the Afterlife: "I lost my father, I sense him near, but my thoughts are so mixed up I can't actually know if it's his thoughts or mine..."

"Sensing contact with the afterlife doesn't mean you can easily understand or believe the contact is real or clear, especially if it's someone very close to you - you need to find a way to verify things the contact is real, and not just imagined."

I had the same problem (visitors to my website on contacting the afterlife will know my discovery was accidental, back in 2002) and it's why I developed my simple technique. Firstly, if you sense him around, then he's there. I know some would think that's a nave statement, but it's true and you can verify it yourself in time.

I assume you're past the stage of believing in life after death, and family and friends in the Afterlife are contactable. So we'll move on to knowing the difference between your own thoughts, and those of someone who's 'coming through' to you. The first step, even if you're pretty good at 'feeling' a connection, is to become relaxed. Like a deep meditation phase.

On my web site on contacting the afterlife, I share many ideas to help, most of it free, including instructions, a YouTube video, and a list of books and guides to help. But the starting point is relaxing. I find it hard to get clear detail if I am busy, rushed, or thinking about too many things. So the first step is to be very relaxed, to the point of not being aware of anything else around you. Whilst I suggest my own audio guide "Contact Family in the Afterlife yourself", any meditation will do.

In order to get clear messages or feelings is to discern the difference between the thoughts in your head, and the INCOMING thoughts. One key is to not ask for specific 'signs', but to accept whatever comes through. Maybe you won't get what you're expecting, but gradually you will get things clearly, becoming easier the more you try.

What you need to do next is separate your thoughts from those you are receiving those in the Afterlife. I find the starting point is to be very relaxed, but then to try NOT to get any specific thoughts, and accept whatever comes through. You may not get what you want right now, but you will start to sense things, often that seem odd or insignificant, but it will become clearer the more you try.

Lastly, you want to verify what just happened is not your own thoughts, and my suggestion is to ask for something you don't know, or something you're forgotten. Something you don't know can be anything. In my wife's case, the final 'proof' she needed to verify I was sharing messages from her father was for me to ask if she had knocked a round cylinder containing a bunch of pens and pencils off her desk today? Something I didn't know, and did not even know about the cylinder.

In my book 'Soul Matters " the Voice Within' I talk about my Grandma coming through (who passed away when I was about 7) showing me a plate with a 'scone' on it. I had no idea what this meant, until I heard her soft voice say "don't you remember the scones?' - then I remembered. I had asked my mum many times to make scones like my Grandma (who's British, and they make scones completely different from Australians!). I had completely forgotten that.

So ask, and trust the answer, even if what you get does not make sense - and over the next few hours or days it will, and it will verify your connection. In your case, I understand you already sense him near, and don't really need to know how to connect clearly with him, but I've shared these things because I feel if you do these small simple steps, you'll go from sensing he's with you to getting clear messages and being able to verify it's real.

I hope this works for you. Tell me how you get on in a few months by using the feedback link on the website (philg.net.au). I'm sure you'll get the clarity and proof you desire.

How To Win Back Your Boyfriend If He's Left You

By Ricardo d Argence

Has your boyfriend dumped you? Are you longing to get him back again? Well, if you are then you need to exercise a certain amount of caution in order to avoid scaring him away.

Firstly remember that just because you want him back it doesn't mean that he wants to come back. If you've broken up before and your relationship has become a breakup/makeup merry go round, pretty soon one or both of you will want to one day get off that particular ride for good.

Remember, there is always a chance that he's become sick and tired of the breakup and makeup routine and as such, how you feel and what you want may be of no importance to him any longer.

Secondly to get guy back you're really going to have to look at the relationship as a whole, not just the parts you're comfortable looking at, because only then can you begin to find out what's causing the problems.

It may be very much worth your while to seek help and advice from outside, particularly if you think it may help. Under such circumstances good, honest friends can be invaluable, providing they willing to tell you what you need to hear, instead of what you would like to hear.

You should also understand that to pull this off you're going to have to stop acting on whim and emotion and start working a well thought out proven plan. This is probably the most crucial step you will need to take, so get yourself under control.

Take some time out to formulate a plan in order to prevent yourself from making matters worse. In other words, don't be tempted to phone him all the time and don't text in either. Likewise, don't try to manipulate in such a way so as to get him to see you.

You'd be far better off occupying yourself with a meeting other people and going out socializing. In fact, do whatever it takes in order to regain a reasonable amount of clarity with regards to the situation.

Especially take the time to look at why you want to get guy back, because to be honest, too many people find themselves back with their exs only to discover a few weeks down the line that they have made a huge mistake. So just because you want to get guy back right now, ask yourself if you really should?

However, if you've made the decision that you definitely want to get your boyfriend back, and you're satisfied that you're in control of yourself, then you need to prepare yourself for the next step which will involve actually discussing it with him.

One other thing you should bear in mind is; he may not feel ready to see you yet and if that's the case is not very likely to want to discuss getting back together again. If you find yourself in a situation like this, rather than trying to force the issue, accept that he needs more time.

Instead, tell him that you understand completely and then tell him you will give him more time to think things through. Leave it at that and continue living your life and keeping yourself busy.
