Bridge to Light and Love: One Couple's Immersion into the Shamanic Spirit World Who am I?What's my purpose for being here on earth?What happens when I die?As so many of us wonder, these were the kinds of questions Kathie Waters, coauthor of Bridge to Light and Love: One Couple's Immersion into the Shamanic Spirit World, was struggling with. She reached out to the spirit world for healing, and the spirits responded by healing Kathie-mind, body, and soul. Kathie's husband, and coauthor, Michael, became interested in joining her on this journey. They learned that everything in the universe is connected by light and love.Urged by the spirits to become a bridge of understanding so that others could also learn and understand these forgotten ways, Michael and Kathie Waters wrote Bridge to Light and Love to give readers like themselves the answers they seek. In a world of scientific logic, mathematics, and philosophy, this book gives people insight from the opposite end of the spiritual spectrum: faith, trust, and emotion.

Waters explores the confluences of the sensual and the spiritual, and renders their mysteries with precision and clarity. The title evokes the rigorous consciousness that prods the artist to deepen into his craft. Line by line, Waters delivers the passionate eloquence and intensity that distinguish his poems.
