Particularly if a person has been raised in a belief system - the idea of breaking from that system is emotionally painful, even without threats of hell and the disappointment and fury of family.  Combine that with grief (I'm sorry for your loss) and oh boy, do you EVER want to know that your loved one is in a wonderful place, and that you will be reunited one day.  (Actually a piece of me still longs for that fantasy.  I have so many people that have passed away that I would love to see again.)  You will walk your path - in your time.  You have already challenged your belief multiple times, and for many of us, it's part of the process.  It was for me.  Best wishes.

Oh my gosh, your post here, it just...I needed to read this. You have no idea. Hearing that I'm not crazy for going through this ''process'' multiple times is beyond comforting. Thank you Heart

You're welcome.  Just relax, read, soak it all in.  Nothing needs to be forced. - - It's cliché, but . . . que sera, sera.
