There are those who say they receive signs from deceased loved ones, showing that they are still with them. Such signs can include smelling their distinct scent, hearing their favourite song, or having meaningful dreams about them. Often people report having seeing specific symbols like feathers, coins, birds and dragonflies, or experiencing electrical disturbances, and noticing synchronicities like repeating numbers.
Do you look for signs?

Like a Butterfly
When that last breath is taken
the air in the room leaves for just a moment
leaving those in its presence
holding their breath
it is at that moment when we are all reminded
how truly fragile and precious life is
Life is much like a butterfly, whose wings, which
are delicate in nature, are powerful, miraculous, and strong
sometimes able to make it through fierce winds
while other times, no longer able to fly, feeling the
wind blowing through the tiny tears in its wings
knowing … the end is near
Life is like that … fierce, strong, fragile, and precious … like a butterfly

There is no D at the end of love when someone has died. We didn’t "loved" them, we love them. Still. Always. That love doesn’t vanish when their physical presence leaves this world; it simply shifts, deepens, and finds new ways to exist. You are allowed to say their name out loud. You are allowed to tell their stories, to share the memories that make you laugh or cry or both at once. You are allowed to carry them with you, because love like that doesn’t end, it evolves.
I give you permission to scream from the mountain tops that you love them and you always will. Love is not something that anyone can take from you. Death can’t silence it, time can’t erase it, and no one gets to tell you that you should stop speaking their name. In fact, I’m learning that sometimes, after someone dies, our love for them grows even stronger, more sacred, more present, more intentional.
I will honor the ones I love for the rest of my life, and I am proud of that. I am at peace with that. And I want you to be too. Because the truth is, love doesn’t die, it simply changes form, and continues to live in us.
