Can I Stay in Touch with My Husband Between Lives?

Ever since my husband passed away in late spring this year, I've been wondering how I can possibly let him go? We were married for over 40 years. We were best friends as well as lovers. We respected each other and supported each other in our growth through all that time.

I miss him so much. My heart aches for his touch, to hear his voice, to feel his presence.

Loss is a process - I know that. I'm struggling to get through this grief. I'm trying to remember the divine blessing of our love and remain thankful that we had such a wonderful, deep, beautiful marriage.

I'm trying really hard to get through this painful experience. I don't want to get in the way of him Crossing Over, but how do I just let go after 40 years?

I know in my heart that death is a beautiful experience, also, and I trust that he is now going through incredible beauty on the Other Side.

But I'm needing some help on this side. I talk to him, constantly telling him I love him. I kiss his pictures and pull down the covers on his side of the bed every night. And then I cry -- each and every night -- because I miss him so much. I pray to feel him with me.

I want to connect with him. I want to feel his presence here with me, hear his voice, feel his touch. How can I do that and also honor his death?
