I Was Able To Contact My Grandparents Through A Medium And I Did Not Receive Closure

It only made me want more of them.

I Was Able To Contact My Grandparents Through A Medium And I Did Not Receive Closure
Lexy Gierszal

In a previous article, I wrote about being a skeptic until I sat down with a Medium. In that article, I really only touched on losing my skepticism. I failed to talk about what happened after my doubts were dissolved.

When a Medium contacts the spirit world they can't see everything, at least the medium I saw couldn't. She could tell us the age range, gender, some personality traits, and sometimes how recent the passing was. It was a lot of bits and pieces that I had to put together.

At first, it started cloudily, but eventually, the pieces started to come together. She was talking about my grandpa and grandma. It is honestly strange typing those words I was only seven when they passed so I don't really remember calling them grandpa or grandma.

It has been so long since I have seen them or spoke to them I was stunned when the Medium contacted them. At first, as I said previously, I was skeptical. The facts were pretty generic to me. Then they started to get more specific. She was able to name things that were specific to them.

The reading became a conversation and the Medium became the translator. I got everything I came for from the appointment, except for closure. Although I don't think I went for closure. Most people would think since I was so young at their passing times that closure would be a big thing for me, but it wasn't.

I mean of course I would want closure, but I think I already had it even before the meeting with the Medium. I don't know how, but I just did. Even though I didn't need closure I thought the meeting would bring reassurance that I didn't.

Instead of reassurance, I received the need for more. I wanted to keep going, I needed more, and I still need more. I wanted to keep talking to them and hearing about them. Hopefully, in the future, I can see the Medium again. Maybe I'll receive the more I need or maybe it will be a never ending cycle of wanting more.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
