Absoultley no qualms when it is my time to go. Although I hope it isn't tomorrow or anytime soon as I've been having a blast while here but I have so much more to do and experience.
I'm convinced when my time is up I'll be meeting up with friends and family that have already gone and I'm looking forward to catching up with them.
One main reason I think this is when my dad passed away of a heart attack in his sleep 15 years ago, he came to "visit me" the day before his furneral. Needless to say I was very upset at this loss but I heard a quiet voice in the middle of the night asking me to wake up and look at the end of the bed. I woke up and there was my dad. He was wearing a red golf shirt and khaki's. He had a huge smile on his face and looked so content. He said "Lynn, don't be sad I'm gone - everything is good here. I'm here with Liz (his sister he lost when he was 16) and grandma and grandpa. Please don't be upset but I have to go, they need a fourth for a game of cards".
Of course the day of the funeral I wasn't sure if my experience would upset my mom or reassure her. After the service I asked my mom if Dad ever played cards? I never met my grandparents or aunt. She said yes Dad's family were avid card players. I told her what happend and she was very happy to hear of my experience. I'm not sure why I had the expereince (I have six siblings) but I am so thankful for it.
Although that was 15 years ago I remember it, like it was yesterday.
Still not even close to being ready but I want to meet people I never had a chance to meet when they were here. Which reminds me I better put on my list of things to do "learn more card games".
