Letting go of your spouse isn’t easy, and most of us seek ways to hold on to the person with whom we had planned to spend the rest of our lives. We may thus become vulnerable to signs, messages, and conversations beyond the grave.
I’m about as pragmatic as anyone you will ever meet, and in the past when I read or heard about messages from beyond, I scoffed. But after my husband’s death, desperate to know he had made it safely into the next dimension, I wasn’t quite as prone to skepticism. I became intrigued when I read about an author who interviewed more than 2000 individuals who claimed they had signs from a loved one who had died. With a trembling heart, I decided I would be open to signals Bob was safe and content. What could it hurt? To my amazement, sounds and sights seemingly came from afar.
In SIPS OF SUSTENANCE, I share the two signs I like to think came from Bob. Am I certain they were messages from him? Of course not, but they helped me in my darkest hours to believe in the possibility that he was keeping his promise to let me know he was okay and was watching over me.
Others may see my “signs” as coincidences or nothing out of the ordinary, but they comforted my grieving heart. And, even if they weren’t messages, if they helped me, did it really matter?
