Love, Amore - An Italian Journey


My recent journey back home to Italia, gave me some real 'live, in living color' understanding of the meaning of the word love.

In Vicenza, Italia, my daughter, Francesca lives with her husband Giovanni and their two children, Riccardo (8yrs old) and Maria Cristina(2yrs old).  Francesca had left the world of New York City, Greenwich Village where  raised to go back to the town of Vicenza t, where she was born.

Letting her go was so very hard to do, but the spiritual way, of loving and letting go was a Truth that I had to follow with her again.  

I flew to Venezia and from there it's only 45 minutes by car to Vicenza. 

I was excited and yet not sure how it would be/feel for me to with Francesca, the family,and friends again. Almost two years had gone by since my last visit and this time I was to stay at the family villa which I had sold with my Italian relatives when my husband and his mother and father had passed away some years ago. Francesca and her husband had recently bought the villa back and beautifully restored.

This villa was the only home I ever had with husband Francesco, Francesca and Mama,Papa. They had passed out of body many years ago, and here I am going back 'home' again. I now have the children in my arms, loving and kissing me.  I am happy to be 'home' at last.

The first night I slept in the villa I woke-up suddenly around 3PM. I felt a pull of Energy calling me to go to the large salon living room, which was always my most favorite room in the villa.

When I came into the large room with panorama windows, I just stood there in this room that has the most incredible Italian countryside view. 

I stood and opened my arms wide, and called out loud to Francesco, Mama and Papa.

               I am here now.
               I am home.

I then waited to 'hear' or sense their response, answer to my call.

In a few minutes, I felt a great wave, likes warm waves of Unconditional Love bathing over my body from head to toe. I felt them close to me. And then I heard in my inner Soul space them saying to me 'yes you are here Katrina and we are so happy that  you are 'home' at last!

Now it felt to me that my love for Francesco, Mama and Papa had come full circle.

I felt more complete, that this connecting with them right here had given us all another deep level of Soul closure. It was a way for the three of us and Francesca to be more Soul Free. Free from whatever Karmic ties of this lifetime and perhaps other lifetimes had held us.

My prayers that I had in my heart for so many years felt to me to be answered.

We are All Free at last to love and move on with our lives.

                                                                                      Love to you all . . . Katrina
