Signs From Heaven

 

I just had a thought about symbols and signs of love from your loved ones who have passed. I know people who think of their mothers when they see yellow butterflies. It was this particular butterfly that their mother loved when they were alive.

I can’t argue with that. Especially on birthdays. It means something to them. It comforts them.

But not everybody gets a sign that loved ones remember and think of them enough to send a sign. Does this mean their loved ones don’t care anymore? What does it mean?

I don’t think it means anything. I’ve been told that family members, even those you were at odds with, still love you. I tell people to think of these folks when they are sorting laundry or when they are doing the dishes. Just a quick hug in Heaven and an “I love you.” Even though you can’t sense an acknowledgement, feel a hug, or sense them, they are there. They gave you that hug. They did kiss you on the cheek. You just need to imagine that happening.

And that’s been working. But I keep thinking of those symbols.

Why not think of a symbol for them? Why can’t you think of a penny on the sidewalk as your sign that your mother is still in your world? Why can’t you think of a blue butterfly as a symbol that might represent your grandmother? I don’t see why you can’t.

I mean, if Tarot cards work and the person doing the reading can interpret them enough that they can give themselves something to concentrate on that day, or for some insight into a particular situation, why couldn’t you declare to the Heavens that from now on, blue butterflies are going to be your symbol for your grandmother?

I mean, why not?

The thing with talking to Spirit is you’ve just got to hold that thought. You’ve got to pretend for a while, and then, I bet you money, eventually, you’ll have a dozen blue butterflies dancing right in front of you. The butterflies, not your dead grandmother.

I mean, there aren’t any rules for this stuff. Make up your own.

Visits from loved ones, years and years after they’ve passed on, are comforting. Grieving never ends. There is no timetable for it, but society says that after one year, the time for grieving stops. Nope. I’ve had too many people in my life who have passed on, and I still grieve. You do it quietly. You do it in private. But it just never stops completely.  It eases, yes. But you learn to live with it. It helps to know these people you love are not gone forever.

 Hey, thanks for reading. For your convenience or curiosity, I’ve listed some other places where I’m active on the internet.
