I've known Mary for many years now, we became good friends almost immediately. Mary's sarcastic humor is almost a mirror of mine. We have talked about almost everything including the creator. I realize it's probably wise to tread carefully when discussing this topic. Now why is that? I mean no disrespect to anyone or their beliefs but I enjoy talking about all things. Mary is the same way and although she is Catholic and I'm...to be honest I don't know what I am, we can have a discussion without getting heated over something that is close to our heart. But what's amazing is that we can find common ground even though there may be vast differences in the way we see things. The reason we went down this road was in part to prove that we all can find some common ground in spititual beliefs, and if that was the case...then is there a chance the world can follow suit? Would that end some of the wars that exist today? How can we move forward if we don't at least listen and respect what the other person has to say. In the end we may realize we have more in common than we realize.
Sadly, like some of you, Mary lost her dad at an early age. They were pretty close. What's great about these stories is that her dad seemed to come back almost right away and keep an eye on her all the way into early adulthood. Even her roomates in college were witness to these events! Whether you believe these to be true or not, so be it. But what I take away is at least some comfort in the possibility that all spirits go on and that love moves beyond the flesh.
Also included in the interview is a discussion about "The Secret".
