Ask Anna

Dear Anna,

The question I have is... My first love left to another state and started a family and has two daughters, he's been gone for a long time I have never heard from him or had any contact with this person. I always wondered about him.

One day my sister was on line and met him online and he did ask about me and I wanted to contact him but never did and next thing I hear he was killed stabbed to death in the city.

Now the thing is I cant stop thinking of him and why do I even think of him? I don't understand why he keeps coming up in my mind I to started a life and two beautiful children. Do you think he may need prayers or is he trying to tell me something? Any help on why I keep thinking about him will help me understand. Thank you

Why Am I thinking of Him? Dear Why Am I thinking of Him:

He has been around you off and on since he passed, because he felt there was unfinished business. He wants to apologize for the way that things went, and let you know that you always will have a place in his heart.

He is a member of your Soul family. We have agreements with people, made on a soul level, often referred to as soul contracts. Some people call it karma.

It looks as though he feels that he didn't complete the contract. That happens a lot in this world. The good news is that both of you will have an opportunity to complete that contract in another time and another place. That is the beauty of reincarnation.

Just tell him that it is okay. He can go on and that you have a good life, and your appreciate his concern over you. He will hear you and be able to travel on in his journey.

Dear Anna:

I just want to thank you for reaffirming my beliefs in the other side, I've written to you before, haven't had any visitors yet. I've got a lot of questions but there is always one distinct one.

I had a dream one time after my Ate' passed on while I was in the service, I don't know our language fluently, but I remember him saying the word "chimsni" I'm not sure if that's how it's spelled but that's how it sounded. I told one of my Aunt's about it, she said it meant something like abandoned or something.

There was a ceremony we had, I still didn't figure out what it meant but I prayed for him and my aunt who was sick. I'm just wondering about him, I just want him to know we still love him and I wish he could see his grandbabies, That I'm hanging in there the best I can and I'm trying my hardest to raise my family, I want to thank him for inspiring me to play music when I was younger, it was one of the best gifts he gave me, I'll never lose that.

Again I thank you for your insight and appreciate your time.

Thanks Dear Thanks:

You are welcome. He does see his grandbabies. He thanks you for acknowledging his insistence on your music skills. He just wanted to communicate his love for you, and his sadness that you were so far away, and that he didn't get to say goodbye. He says, "goodbye, and wiconi. I watch over you.

Thank you for the prayers and the respect. I respect you too, and am proud of you. You don't have to wear the hat, but keep it. My grandbabies will love it."

Dear Anna:

Well first of all I am a single mother with a 7 month old boy and his father wasn't here ever since he was born or during my pregnancy and he is too busy fooling around with his life he tells me he will take over but I don't know or I'm not too sure.

I am having it hard I don't have an education which I tried and tried for my GED.

Ever since I got pregnant I changed my life around I don't do drugs, I don't drink, or I don't care to look for any man because I am too busy with my baby I am breast feeding so it is hard to be away from him.

I am also worried about my mom she has a bad knee problem and she is also going deaf on one ear. We are struggling at my house because we are having a lot of problems with money my mom is getting old and my sisters treat her bad and she stresses over it. I love her , my baby and I think I still have feeling for my son's dad but he still needs responsibility in his life can you please help me? Will I ever get an education for my baby? Will I get a job or move off the rez? Will my sisters at least respect my mom's wishes? Will my baby's daddy man up and take care of his responsibilities? Does he still care for me? Does he know I hurt without him? Will me and my mom go back to Little Falls next year well thank you so much.

Nursing Mom Dear Nursing Mom:

You and your mom will visit Little Falls two times in this upcoming year. I see you and your mom moving to Rapid City. I see you in low-income housing, while you get help getting your GED and get training in either early child hood development or the health field. With you and your mom living together a lot of the chaos around your mom will disappear and both of your lives will be better. The feelings your have for your ex chiefly center around your gratefulness for your baby.

He will, as you say, man up someday. That day may be 15 years (more or less) from now, so don't hold your breath. I am very proud of your sobriety and your efforts to be a good person and parent. The Creator will reward you with better opportunities and a better life. Good Luck.

Dear Anna,

I had a reading with you and it was so freaky, like you were reading my mind. How many people do you have in your head?

Freaked Out Dear Freaked Out:

You made me laugh. I only have one person in my head, but I have many in my heart, and you are one of them.

Dear Anna:

My grand father is very sick. He is very old, almost 60. Will he live? I don't want him to die, I want him to see me graduate someday.

Crying hard for my grandpa Dear Crying:

I do see him recovering. He has a heart problem that will be corrected. He will see you graduate, both from grade-school and high school. Talk to him on the phone when he is in the hospital and see him a lot when he is home recovering. You will help him live a little longer. 60, sheesh, that is old, almost the same as me.
