I remember when Angel died (cat) back in 2002. Not to get all religious here, but I did pray for a sign that she was ok. It was like the NEXT day, my mother called (she didn't know I prayed about this) and told me she found a clump of Angel's hair on the mat at the door (Angel lived with my mother even though she was technically my cat....I had her since I was 12 back in 84). The cat never really went outside unless she was on a small tie-out thingy (she LOVED being out) and we were there with her, but whenever my mother brushed her, she did clean the brush outside and let the fur go. I've had people tell me it was just a coincidence..that the fur just blew back, but if you were to see my mother's home, there was no way it would just HAPPEN to go back UP the steps and to the corner by the door ON the mat. There is no way. So, I took that as my sign that Angel was ok.
I prayed for a sign that Ashie was ok, too, a few weeks ago. The day after she died, I was getting dressed, but then decided to wear something else. I took the shirt off I was wearing and just kind of tossed it on the bed. I got dressed, went out to the kitchen for something, and then went BACK into the bedroom only to stop dead in my tracks.
YA. See the rounded indentation on it as if a cat had been sleeping on it?
A month or so ago, I did a scrapbook page/layout of Ashie and used strips of paper for journaling. I had forgotten to put on the last strip that said, "I will love you FOREVER!" and just never gotten around to putting it on. It had fallen off my desk where I scrap (upstairs) and onto the floor, but I never picked it up (why, I don't know).
Anyway, I noticed today, that strip of paper ended up at the bottom of the stairs on the floor. I thought maybe one of the cats had a hold of it or something...but still, I didn't pick it up...don't know why.
Tonight, my son (5 mos) woke up crying needing a diaper change...so I put him down on our bed to change him when I noticed that strip of paper ON THE BED. I picked it up and read "I will love you FOREVER!".
And something hit me...out of nowhere....and not saying anything about my thoughts, I told my husband the story of the strip of paper. He said, "Ashie will love you forever....that's her sign".
OMG. I nearly started bawling (OK...I did a little, but I had to keep composure because of my kids)........
So....coincidence or signs from beyond? Be honest on your thoughts.....just curious as to what others think about things like this.
