Your loved ones have not faded into nothingness—they live. Energy never dies; it transforms.
How much of their memories, personality, and individuality do they retain? Do they still feel emotions?
They retain all of it. They remain as they were on Earth, though, in time, they gain greater clarity. Some, unaware of the hurt they caused in life, may seek reconciliation and forgiveness as they move toward peace. Burdened by guilt or shame, others may need time to find the courage to face those they wronged.
The path to the Light is clear to those who have earned it yet obscured to others, hence the term “lost soul.”
