Live Each Moment as if it was your last

Because it just might be:

Today, my wife picked up an advertiser that also carries some local news. She said, "I hope it isn't our friends that died in that crash by a drunk driver this week." I picked up the advertiser and looked at the picture. I said, "That looks like our friend's car that is mashed up there." At this point my wife started crying because she started to think they might have died. So she called the pet store they had fairly recently sold and found out it was them.

These two people used to be missionaries in New Guinea and were originally from Canada but had retired from being missionaries and had bought a pet store and recently had sold that pet store. We had come to know them when they owned the pet store about 14 years ago and they loved our dogs because they both are very special dogs.

Our goddaughter had come up from Los Angeles that day to spend 5 days at a business conference with her husband and they had brought their two younger dogs for our friends to sit for them during this time. So, 2 hours or so before they were killed by a drunk driver crossing an intersection in their car we had spoken with them as they returned the dogs to our God daughter and husband.

As an intuitive I was pretty amazed because their passing  as souls was seamless in a variety of ways. They had spoken of how so many of their friends had died the last couple of years. So, as an intuitive when I realized that they had passed on I naturally looked to the other side to see how they were doing and was amazed how well they were doing. These two and a Catholic Priest I have known seemed to be doing the best on the other side this early more than anyone else I have experience being on the other side this quickly (here in the U.S).

Normally, for the average person it takes about 1 to 4 months to be comfortable being without a physical body on the other side. There are a lot of things to get used to for most people because most haven't prepared themselves for it enough. However, their passing was completely seamless and in a sense they will miss out on all the worst things of growing old (one was 60s and one was 70s), and the day before they could still play tennis together. So, to my way of thinking they had good karma to go out like this together and not just one being left alone without the other.

On a more physical world pragmatic note: Some places need stop signs when there aren't any so this doesn't happen to more people at that location!
