Is There Life After Death

A women in her mid-forties, the story goes, was killed in an accident. As she floated up out of her body she saw a blazing White Light approaching her, radiating perfect Unconditional Love.

"Who are you?" the Light asked.

"I am Mrs. Alan Jones. My husband is a doctor," she replied.

"I didn't ask who your husband was. I asked who you are," the Light said.

"I'm a mother. I have three children: Jason, Joan, and Alyson."

"I didn't ask who your children where. I asked who you are."

"I'm an elementary school teacher. I teach grades three and four."

"I didn't ask what work you did. I asked who you are."

"I'm a Christian. I believe in Jesus Christ."

"I didn't ask what religion you belonged to. I asked who you are."

With a shock, the woman realized she didn't actually know who she was. "I can't answer that," she finally admitted.

With infinite compassion, the blazing White Light sent her back to earth, into a new body, in order to find out.
