Letting Go Hurts

By Cal Orey"


... what we have enjoyed, we can never lose ...  all that we love deeply becomes a part of us." ~Helen Keller


A gift  for me last December was born
 after losing
 a beloved canine companion, Seth named after the film
"City of Angels"

Spirits of my parents/grandparents are here
Today, I awake to news about a cyclone in India and strong earthquake in Greece--natural disasters that come with great loss. As a grownup woman, an author-intuitive who takes calls to hear men and women talk about change--all types--you'd think I'd have mastered the art of letting go of precious things, good experiences, great jobs, and loved ones. But I'm human and the deal is--loss hurts...

It really doesn't matter, whether it be a parent, lover, dog, cat, fish--or anyone close to you. All of God's creatures that have crossed your path can and do make an imprint on your soul. It seems like I'm coming to this crossroad, once again...and it's not fun. At all. It's life in its rawest form and it hurts.
I telepathically connect with Seth
As an intuitive, I often read for people who are going through loss and it brings out all sorts of emotions: shock, bargaining, sadness, anger, denial, and acceptance. I listen. I try to be in the moment of how they're feeling--because I've been there, too. It's part of life. I'm not judgmental. I offer insight, tap into the energy of the spirit in question, whether it is on Earth or in the hereafter. It doesn't really matter because the fact is, when there is separation--it hurts.


This morning a caller reminded me of my muse KerouacRather than writing more about letting go--something we don't have control over, I'm sharing photos of beloved pets in my recent life that have left me...It doesn't get easier, whether its an object of desire, human or pet--it's losing a connection that's familiar. And it hurts. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. But the upside is, life goes on.
