The number one question I’m asked is if a person will reunite with a loved one, after death.

Well, I hate to pee in your Cheerios, but it doesn’t work that way. The afterlife is all about overlapping planes. We all live in the same physical space, but on different metaphysical levels, and someone who’s passed before you might have reached a consciousness you haven’t yet. Take Romeo and Juliet, for example. The sad truth is, they’re probably not together in the afterlife. Romeo dies because of someone else’s initial mistake—Friar Lawrence relying on the Verona postal service, when we all know they’re freaking government employees and delivery’s not guaranteed. Juliet, though, stabs herself, in the hope that she can be with Romeo again. Clearly, she messed up in this life. She’s going to have to deal with that in the soul world, and because of this, she is far more likely to bump into Friar Lawrence—who’s got his own mess to atone for—than into Romeo.

Trust me. Before that big sweeping romantic reunion, Juliet has to figure out what she did wrong.
