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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
