When I was 6 years of age, my family was living in southern Florida. I have just recently related this story to my children and close friends. I've only begun to tell my family now because I was sure the story would be received negatively but the incident was so wonderful and real.

I was outside riding my bike when a very bright being appeared to me. He smiled at me and made me feel very safe. He told me not to be afraid, there was nothing to fear. I was told, never fear anything. That I was special, that great things where going to happen to me. All the while he was speaking to me I felt an overwhelming love. A love that seemed so pure and whole. I never told anyone. When I would think about the visit I would feel overwhelmed all over again.

As I grew older I thought of the incident of and on. Wondering why it happened. I still have no answers, but one thing I know, when my father died, the very moment, I had that most peaceful feeling come over me. The same feeling I had with my visitor when I was 6. Something was telling me that my father had just been taken to a place of perfection. A beginning point that we all will experience. I thank God for the visit. For it showed me that death was the beginning of life.
