Do loved ones who have passed send messages from the beyond?
One night, I was thinking of my mom and dad very deeply. There were memories and tears. Since they both passed (Mom in 2009 and dad in 2010) I’ve always hoped (and perhaps…sensed?) they were watching over me.
Then, sometimes – it feels like they are not. Like they have moved on into deep space, where things are so awesome, psychedelic and divine, that they couldn’t give a damn about hovering over me like Casper the Ghost.
Or, maybe they’re in the middle of a nothing dream. Nowhere.
It felt that way that night. There was a sense of being…alone. Really alone. I never feel “really feel alone”. Even before my parents’ death, there’s been a lingering sensation that a presence, some unknown angel or decease relative, has been with me.
Maybe it’s an old imaginary friend I never gave up as a child.
Or maybe it’s a real other worldly being assigned to me, as some believe happens before birth. (I’m on the fence about these beliefs.)
After my folks died, there was a feeling that this lingering presence was joined by them.
My dad, comes through strongly. Although I love my mother, my father was the closest connection to me. We were cut from the same cloth. I was born the day after his birthday. We were/are both Sagittarius. I was daddy’s girl.
That night, feeling like I was flapping in the cosmic wind, I went to bed with my iPad and went on Facebook to see what was up.
Then I saw the Winnie The Pooh quote above.
I adored Winnie The Pooh as a child, and still hold the character dear to my heart. I even own a series of Milne’s rough sketches.
Maybe it was a sign from Dad telling me he was still around? Who knows. Until it’s my time to leave, maybe these notes and the belief they appeared at the right moment, is enough for me to believe.
