Janet: You know, Tomas, I'm not afraid of [[dying]]. I don't think that's going to be anything very bad. And everyone talks about a white [[light]]? Or those that have had a [[near death experience]]. I'll probably be scared blue if I see it but I'll probably get through it, too, because I manage, usually, to overcome those things. And then when I get up there I hope to …. Some of [[the angels]] will be my [[father]] and [[mother]]. They forgave me every time I messed things up and probably they'll take me by the hand and say, "Well, look, you can't just go trotting right up to God because He's busy. But there will be things that you're gonna have to answer for that you did that were wrong in this life" -- and I'm sure I've done plenty of them, but I've tried to do some good things, too, and maybe when I get up there to the [[throne]] of God and He's had a [[chance]] to talk to me, He'll probably look at me and shake his head just like my dad did, and say well "You managed to mess some things up pretty well here and there, but you tried to do some good things, too,... And we did give you Carl and Carl took you by your hand and managed to love you and [[promise]] to be a good [[husband]], so I guess that's what you needed. So now that you're up here, you can meet the [[angels]] who helped you in life and if something doesn't feel good maybe I can send you to help them out a bit and then you can make yourself useful up here," because that's what I'd like to do and that's why I'm not afraid to die. It's going to be a whole new experience up there.

TOMAS: I have picture of you, my child, as a coy and precocious, curly- haired, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jabberwocky jabberwocky] on my knee looking up, telling me, your uncle Tomas how you see Daddy God -- and He's not a bad chap in your eyes, I am delighted to see. You have a delightfully childlike [[perception]] of where you are in [[the universe]], one which I will not take issue with, but rather will bounce you on my knee and enjoy with you the [[vision]] you provide, for you are not at all wrong, for the most part.

I would spend just a moment indulging these [[visions]] for the [[truth]] therein, as you will, in fact, have your [[angels]] as they have helped you and will continue to help you through the ages, and that you will, in fact, see those who have preceded you, they will come to greet you. But perhaps, more immediately, I would [[share]] with you that when I went through the [[death]] [[experience]] and saw the light, it was not a frightening thing at all. It was as if my [[soul]] had been fine-[[tuning]] itself all my mortal life in [[anticipation]] of the opening of that doorway which allowed the light of the new world to enter in. For indeed, it was a new world for me as it will be for you, [[blessed]], indeed, as we have discussed before. And beyond which I will only suggest that while it is customary for little children to [[anticipate]] the [[authority]] of those who are older and wiser, it will be you yourself who makes those determinations in your [[heart]] and in your soul as to how you will become a better daughter in your [[attitudes]] and in our acts as a result of your own live [[reflection]] and not because God has wagged his finger at you. It isn't in Him to [[shame]] you, little girl. You are too much of a treasure for him to scold. You who are [[meek]] and [[humble]] are already on the job of chiding yourself as to how you can live up to your own best image of yourself, which is, indeed, the image of God.
