Have you ever had a dream that woke you up so suddenly and it left you feeling unsettled?
I used to be a big dreamer I dreamed every night and I always remembered my dreams the stories I could tell about them. Ever since Trent passed its rare I dream and even more rare if I remember the dream. This morning my alarm went off at 7 and I decided to reset it for 730. I don't remember to much about the dream but I remember there was a guy talking to someone he was wearing a black coat and I went up to him and hugged him he turned to me and said you didn't answer my question I just hugged him tighter and said what question he said I miss you and then I realized it was Trent it was his stupid carhart jacket his face and his voice and then it ended. I woke up abruptly a little out of breath and this unsettling feeling hasn't gone away.-Allie

Some of the religions do not believe contact across the veil is possible at all...then, some believe that when it does happen that we are dabbling in something nefarious.
I can only speak for myself...and after spending over half my life being joined with Marylou Body-Mind-Spirit, I refuse to believe that contact across the veil with our Beloved is anything nefarious or evil, and I absolutely refuse to accept that Marylou is "gone-forever" and that I will never see her again.
If you are curious, or perhaps emotional that seeing your Beloved in a dream may be a form of contact, afterlife researcher Patrick Mathews has several books out you may find of interest.
Maybe this dream kind of took your breath away because it's what you wanted so badly, but you're not sure how to process it. Hang in there and post if you need to talk. We're all here for you!
