Whilst in physical state you may measure your life span to be something of a very long time, certainly when one is separated from a loved one.
This measure of time for someone within the spirit world is quite the opposite. Their perspective of a human lifetime is very short indeed. Nothing in the spirit world is rushed, nor does it need to be.
Those that pass on usually take their time in transitioning and reintegrating back to their refined spiritual state. While to them this may be no time at all, for you several months, or even years may have passed.

For those who continue to hold strong bonds and emotional ties with those left upon the Earth, they tend to retain that closeness even after their death. They will often wait for their children, spouses or friends to complete their life term before making big steps onward in their development. They will often feel compelled by a sense of duty and responsibility to watch over and oversee the wellbeing of those still in physical state. These feelings tend to originate from the consciousness that is brought with the soul back into the spirit world. In such a way, it could be said, no one else could possibly comprehend the bond you have between you. In a sense that is quite true, for you have shared something together which no other has. This grants you a profound and distinct empathy and connectivity.

It should be understood that the roles within families of the human race tend not to be mirrored in the spirit world. This is to say that relationships evolve and transform into something else after the initial unification. A father would not continue to treat the other soul as his son or daughter, or a mother to the same effect. Those roles were aspects of human consciousness which are at first brought over into the spirit world, but are not something which persists thereafter. As the consciousness expands and reunites with its divine ancient spirit it becomes whole and indifferent to all others. Though it is that two souls can share memories of loving roles and bonds from physical life, the same family conditions will no longer apply as each soul will return to their own distinct soul group and soul family.
With such new forged bonds between one soul and another, great divine friendships are founded which expand beyond all time and space. The two spirits will often meet up frequently in the spirit world and reminisce and share memories, thoughts and achievements. They will often retain the same sense of responsibility and duty of care for each other, despite moving onward in their own separate ways. -Sparrow
