Just had a question about something that happened to me

Well let's start off with a little history of myself. Not gonna get into too much detail but the jist of what is related to my experience.About 3 almost 4 years ago I lost an aunt of mine. We were only about 5 years apart in age.We were very close and yesterday was her bday. Was at the cemetery visiting her grave and my daughter's, whom passed away as well, visiting for my aunt's bday and just visiting my daughter. Anyways this is my experience,My daughter passed away about 2 and a half years ago and within a week of her passing I had a dream about her. I was at the funeral and I walked up to the casket , and touched my daughter's face. When I did that, the most horrible thing happened, the side of her face that i touched caved in as if it had started to rot. It was so heart breaking to see this. As I started to cry a hand reached out and took hold of my wrist. I looked up and it was my aunt whom had passed. She smiled at me and told me " Don't believe what your seeing, She's ok, she's with me." I started to say something and thats when I woke up,covered in tears. So do any of you have any thoughts on this? I'm not a religious person but I am a spiritual person, believe in the christian god and the chrisitian satan but don't follow any particular religion. Any thoughts?

First off, I am very sorry about your losses, this is a very sad post to read and I wish you nothing but the best moving forward. That said, I do not think you are experiencing anything supernatural, you have been subjected to an awful set of circumstances and maybe have not come to full terms of your grief in which case your mind may be playing tricks on you as you suppress or repress pain and anguish.

I would honestly suggest you seek some professionally help so that somebody much smarter than myself may guide you through the process of healing and recovery and I truly hope that things in your life get back on track God willing, the best of luck and life I truly wish you.....

I thank you for your kind words it just made me sad and happy at the same time, hard feeling to describe. Yeah it was alot to process at the time alot of negative things happened to me around both of those events just being at the cemetary made me recall that event in my life

niko,

I am so sad for you, that you lost your daughter (something no parent can bear) and your aunt.

But that was eventually a lovely vision - your daughter and your aunt together.

And the message is - there is a spiritual world after this one.

Thank you for your kind words , it is rough for a parent to lose a child , she was only 5 months old when she died. I was told by a pastor that I knew that the image of my daughter's face rotting was satan trying to trick me and that my aunt was an angel that had come to comfort me in my time of grief.

The human mind is more complicated than science can even understand presently. Emotion, particularly when negative can affect us in very strange and unexpected ways. If there is lingering despair, depression and anxiety, it will present in ways we do not understand and sometimes those ways can be scary and unfamiliar.

Try to tackle the feelings head on, fight the depression by finding one thing a day that is beautiful in the world and focus on it, be it the clouds, the sunset, a tree in the wind, something positive and beautiful. Realize that we all rise and fall from the same dust and at some point, we are all reunited again, in this life or the next.

Things will get better, I promise they will. It will only start when you believe that they will and in order to do that, you have to try and see the whole picture and understand there is a bigger story than you or I and that while we may not fully understand it right now, it's probably not all bad.

I understand what your saying, the thing thats pushed me through is my son and my fiance. Without either of them i'd be lost so thats what kept me going. I do believe in an after life, thats just my beliefs.

those whom we hold close are always with us and live on in our hearts/memories..and yes from time to time they do visit us..

condolences on your losses..

Thank you as well for your kind words. Theres not a day that goes by that i don't think of both of them , I miss them both and get low sometimes but i know my aunt and daughter want me to live on for them and never forget them.

reply to post by nikobellic


Yes, niko,

They want you to carry on. And they want you to get over your sadness because they are happy.

Let go of the sadness and live your life - that is their message.

i try to, sometimes it's hard , like the saying goes life is hard death is easy. i wont give up on life tho, I see too much beauty in the world.

My sincere condolence on the loss of your loved ones

I do not believe what you saw was the work of Satan. Satan is only the personification of the corrupt nature of people.

I believe what you saw in your dream was the result of grief and anxiety. I do believe that your Aunt knew because she told you to not believe what you see. She came to you to reassure you.

thank you for your kind words as well, I do not know what to think of the experience. It was so vivid it didn't feel like a dream more like a vision. So i don't know what to make of it

reply to post by nikobellic


Make of it this, niko,

They are sending you a message.

Get over your sadness and live your life!

And please do that - do not let your daughter or your aunt down.
