You find detritus . . . bits of a plant with teeth marks . . . and you make an assumption that a small animal has brought it to this place. You are basing this understanding on the evidence before you. Now you know that the animal exists, yet you have not seen it. Can you extrapolate this experience to the understanding of an afterlife? You may not see those who have passed, but if you are open to the signs and messages they leave, your assumptions are well-founded. You do not need to see or hear objectively to know they are still right here.

You are so very loved.
