Lisa Smartt’s newest book, Words at the Threshold:  What We Say as We’re Nearing Death, includes a collaboration with Dr. Raymond Moody. I enjoyed talking with the linguist and writer, Lisa Smartt, and in this conversation we talked about after-death communication, how to relate to those who are transitioning from this earth plane, and how some of the phenomena at the end of life also relates to near-death experiences.

I loved hearing about some of the poetry inspired by her father in the afterlife.  Not only are the poems lovely, but they are a document and testament that love survives death.  I must say that as I write this, my grandparents on the other side are sending me much love and appreciation.  These bonds of love do survive death, and I want others to know this at a deep level.
