Have you guys ever seen the TV show, Dead Like Me? It's about a girl who was killed when she was 18 and was given an assignment in her afterlife to take the souls of people who were about to die before the soul got "stuck" in the dead body. It's a whole theory, I guess, of an afterlife. Anyway, on one episode, the main character had to take the soul of a little girl and obviously had a hard time with it. She eventually did and when the little girl's soul was released, a beautiful carnival of lights appeared in the distance. The little girl ran towards it excitedly and that was the ending.
I like the idea that every person's soul goes to the place that makes them happiest. So I like your idea, Julie. I hope wherever our babies are, they're happy. I don't necessarily feel like I'll see Olivia again someday either (outside of my dreams) but who knows? It makes me feel good to think about and that's all that matters now.
not religious, but still hoping for afterlife
