The Irish are well known for their open-heartedness. I'm sure that this accounts for some of the feelings you describe. Whether that indicates connections on other planes or at other times, I wish I could prove it, but even if we are only here together this once, it's a blessing to have a soul sister, or even a brother! I'm just hoping to meet up with those I love in the afterlife! I know I can't "prove" that exists either, but I live with the hope. Imagining for a moment that the pessimists are right, and there is nothing on the other side, shouldn't that be a case for even greater love and closeness in this life?
