The greatest mystery in human history may be what awaits us when we leave this physical life behind. Across religions, collective consciousness, and entire civilizations, humanity has returned again and again to this profound question. My Spirit friends assure me that no one makes the passage alone; those we love in Spirit come forward to greet us, comfort us, and support us through the transition. The experience of releasing the organic body is unique to each soul, shaped by one’s beliefs, the circumstances of passing, and the life one has lived. I find deep comfort in imagining that my relatives, friends, guides, and beloved animals in Spirit will be there to welcome me and accompany me into the next journey.
I believe that what awaits us will be beautiful, and that it will gently reveal the answers we have spent our lives seeking. More than that, I believe everything will finally come into focus and make sense. Though each person’s journey is deeply individual, I often find myself reflecting on people’s final words before they pass, because they seem to offer a fleeting glimpse into what that moment may be like.
One of my favorites is attributed to Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, who is said to have spoken these words just before he passed: “Oh wow, oh wow, oh wow.”
