"Although you cannot hear her voice or see her smile, your mother walks beside you as she did before.  She listens to your stories and wipes away your tears, she wraps her arms around you and understands your fears.  She isn't visible to see with the human eye, but try to talk to her and her spirit will reply.  You'll feel her love in your heart because although she has left her body, your souls will never part."
