Do you believe there will be someone there, when you pass on from this life? Someone to welcome you....to leave the light on for you?

Is that something you inherently believe? Something you have to consciously try to believe in? Something you need to believe in? Something you don't believe at all? Where do you stand on it?

Yes I do. Some experiences in my life the last few years have made me more sure of that at least and gives me comfort.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow That's a great thing to be sure of.
@LadyBronte For the longest time I had I suppose a more agnostic animist view of things. Everything in the universe that is made of matter is basically densely packed energy. And we know from physics energy cannot be destroyed so on some level something of us persists. Beyond that I was never sure.

I have been a practicing pagan since the 90s and mostly Wicca but some aspects never quite felt right.

That led to alot of searching and well my first experience with the divine that I could attach to a specific deity and tradition.

Took awhile to figure out what exactly what happening and what was calling me. But when the lady who leads the souls of the dead to the underworld in the times of my ancestors I took notice.

That has led down a rabbit whole I still have not found the bottom of but more things about myself make more sense to me know.

I no longer fear what is coming. And I still battle depression but I know now more than ever I still have reasons to stick around longer.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I hope you continue to find reasons to stay and to hope.
