"As a person gifted with the ability to hear the dead, I view death a bit differently 
than some others do. I mourn the loss of the body for a time, missing the company 
of loved ones, but I also rejoice that the Spirit is free, to walk in the Light. 
At this time, though we honor the dead, it is also a time of life,
for the cycle of life, death, and rebirth is a part of Nature. 

A flower grows, goes to seed, dies, and it's seeds are reborn, and life continues. 
So too with mankind. A soul comes into form, is born, lives, dies, and moves on,
and so there is no destroying energy - life continues, through a cycle, 
and death is but part of that eternal dance. The Wheel turns. "
