Book Review (Part 2): Love Never Dies: From Heaven My Sister Speaks

Hi All!

Part 1 was kind of lengthy so I’ll keep it brief today.

One thing I wanted to mention is that Ms. Dawn had a religious (Christian) upbringing and education, and sometimes her spiritual advisors bring Christianity into their description of the spirit world.

For example, she was told that everyone in heaven is 33, because Jesus died at 33. Therefore, younger people grow up to 33, and older people reverse age and go down to 33. I feel this is really the author’s Christian view coming through and I’m not sure I buy into it. Let’s face it, nobody knows everything. I just take in what makes sense or resonates with me and leave the rest.

I wanted to compare some of the things  Angela Dawn has experienced to my own experiences. It’s always gratifying to find someone else who has experienced the same things I have. It helps me form a clearer picture of the spirit world and allows me to trust my gut feelings more often.

I’m going to quote a few passages and then relate them to my own experiences.

Quote: “Yes, mum is here, mum is always here!” (Note, the author is British. Mum is mom.)

My Experience: I often say to myself, “I miss you, Nico,” and immediately I hear his voice saying “I’m right here, mom.”

Quote: (Author speaking about receiving communications from the spirit world) “If people want to call it my imagination that’s fine with me, but I never had such a great imagination. I had never been so inspired to write and never been able to write so philosophically.”

My Experience: I often doubted myself when I did inspired writing. I had done it even before my son died and felt I’d received guidance. It was clear to me the thoughts I was receiving were not my own. I even once connected with my boyfriend’s father, who was deceased. I have written “reply” letters from my son that included things I would never have thought of.

Quote: “When we are closer to earth, we take on the shape of our human form that we once had. Spirit is just a ball of energy…we take on many shapes depending on the level of vibration. We only need to take human form when we are dealing and communicating with humans.”

My Experience: At one point my son told me he was pure energy, and no longer in his human form. Because of this, I was puzzled when I visited a medium and he was speaking about Nico like he was in human form. He would say Nico was sitting next to me, he knew he was a young man (as opposed to a child or an older adult). After reading this passage it all made more sense.

Quote: “Everything is energy.” The author speaks about psychometry exercises, where an object takes on the energy of the person who was holding it.

My Experience: When I first came upon the site where my son died, it was a very emotional experience. I (thankfully) did not see him there, but there were some items from our home about the area. I just felt an overwhelming sense of sadness. I felt compelled to put my arms around the tree, since it was the last thing he touched (or maybe I just needed a hug). I felt profound sadness, almost as if the tree was an unwilling participant.

I know that trees don’t have human qualities, but I most definitely sensed a sadness coming from something other than myself. Could it have been psychometric energy from my son transferred to the tree?

In this picture, I wondered if the stool took on the energy from my son. This photo was taken the day after he died. The stool is in the same place as when he died. When I saw it, I laid my belly and chest across the top, bent over and embraced the stool. I stayed like that for a while. It brought me comfort.

Treehaven. The site where my son took his life. I realize this is sunlight, but it is illuminating something that looks like my son looking over a wing.

I hope I gave you some insight into the book. It is available at Amazon in digital and book.
