Have You Ever Had A Sign....?

[Bobbisox1]

3 years ago I lost a young friend , she was there on the Saturday I went on holiday and dead the following day, no illness just a freak heart condition that had lay undetected, 43 happily married with two beautiful kids, I missed her terribly and had to pass her house nearly every day,one such day I passed and as usual my eyes filled with tears which I brushed away, it was a warm but cloudy day with clouds scooting across the sky on a stiff breeze, I went to the bus stop and remember looking up at those clouds and a formation split in the middle and looked like two lips then broke into a huge smile, that smile in the clouds let me know J was happy...

Sorry to hear about your friend Bobbi, Nothing like that has happened to me though.

[Theland]

Sorry to hear that. Don't let Naomi or Nailit know!

Not to much on the same lines as yours. But my father in law passed some 5 years now, on the day he lay dying at home in a bed downstairs next to a conservatory, a blue tit flew into the conservatory and couldn't find its way out, I got up from the bedside where I was sitting to guide the bird out, when I came back he had passed his last breath, every year since our garden is infested with blue tits. very strange, very rarely saw them before that.

I've had a couple of "coincidences".

Absolutely best coincidence was the fact that on the day of my grandad's funeral, someone I once knew and despised was involved in an accident. Not life threatening; but quite painful - having broken both his arms. I couldnt help but recall my grandfather saying "he couldnt find his own a*** with both hands". A sign? I doubt it. A coincidence with karma - absolutely!

[Bobbisox1]

Does it bring you a good feeling TC, it really did for me that day

[Bobbisox1]

Karma indeed BM

[teacake44]

Good yes, but also a very strange and weird feeling, my be all in the mind, but who knows, as I must admit I'm no great believer.

[Bobbisox1]

I guess Js been on my mind today ( 3 yrs ago)

Theland at 21:37, leave me out of your stupid comments. You don't have the foggiest idea how I think.

Bobbi. I know what you mean. I take a few moments every day to search for a particular face in the clouds - and usually find a formation there that brings a smile - albeit a sad one.

[Theland]

Naomi - You and coincidence? Thought that was not materialistic enough for you.

[naomi24]

Theland, what on earth are you talking about?

On the morning of my brother's funeral I was wandering around the garden and noticed the rose he had given us for our silver anniversary was flowering-on 5th march.

[Bobbisox1]

Arh horselady ,how comforting for you,
Naomi , I've looked since ,wanting to see the SMILE in the clouds but it's never happened again

[naomi24]

Bobbi, I think I find what I want to see.... I actually search .... but even knowing that, it brings me a quiet 'moment'. Some sadness you just can't come to terms with and get over. You just have to live with it the best you can.... and if finding something recognisable in clouds helps, so be it. Daft, I know .. but there you are.

[Bobbisox1]

I thought 'daft' too Naomi but now I'm grateful it happened on that day

[naomi24]

Good. Treasure it. :o)

[Bobbisox1]

Oh I do Naomi,I do

[naomi24]

:o)

Yes, there have been many 'signs' since my beloved Dad passed. The best one was the one he left for me after I asked him for a message when I realised I was losing Mum too. I have mentioned it before on here, but don't want to go into too much detail as it's so personal and don't want it tainted by those who may be sarcastic. I definitely know Dad is watching over me and I know I'll see him again one day, and Mum. Strangely, I often look at the clouds as well hoping to see something that will help me in grief, but I never do. Sorry about your dear friend Bobbi.

How true. Wise words.
