Hi Again Jack…The week following my boy’s passing my husband and I were flown on a horse in my dream to an unknown palace. I have come to realize we were given the precious opportunity to help transport his soul after his transition. You should share that place with Kate sometime. It was one of my boy’s unbelievable gifts to us. With love…
I know that horse you dreamed about. He's the one who brings your loved ones to the places we need to share. If Kate is meant to see that palace, she will be shown. In the meantime, she loves visiting the Rainbow Forest where she and I meet and walk every now and again. Thank you! Your boy and I are so glad that the two of you have become friends. Someday we will all walk that path to the palace together.
