When someone says, “I will love you forever,” what do they really mean? Will they literally “love you forever,” even though you both know the human being speaking those words will not–cannot–be with you forever?

At The Meaning of Forever Project, we have a theory: That when two souls truly love each other, their love does last forever, beyond the life of one physical body–beyond (if you accept the idea of reincarnation) the life of many physical bodies. The stories you can read on our blog back this up (click here).

Your story may be like one of them, or it may be about a different experience entirely. But if it has reassured you that your loved one (human or animal) continues, even after physical death, please send it to us at themeaningofforever@gmail.com.

You can find out more about who we are and the fundamental beliefs driving our project by taking a look at our website here.

If you don’t consider yourself a writer, don’t worry, just write from your heart. We’ll work with you on the finer points of language and construction to shape it into a post that conveys exactly what you mean. We won’t publish your story until you are completely happy with it and give your okay.

Please join the discussion. Drop us a line at  themeaningofforever@gmail.com Your experience may bring hope and comfort to others, just as it has to you.
