I don't know what to say. It's so strange how I can hate my job so much but feel so trapped because I won't make this kind of money anywhere else.
However, recently I have been receiving emails from different police departments saying "thanks for submitting your application, please join us for the P.O.S.T test (police officer selection test).
BUT I NEVER APPLIED TO THESE POSITIONS! Could my husband still be trying to guide me from the other side?
In addition, I just went on a get away trip to Cozumel Mexico and when meeting with one of the trip advisors he tells me out of nowhere that they have swimming with the manatees.... like who just out and says that out of a million different activities the island has to offer? He did not say swim with dolphins (which you would think is more popular), or snorkeling, jet skiing, scuba diving.... no he said swim with the manatees.
Swimming with the manatees had ALWAYS been my #1 bucket list item and I would have never even dreamed about researching the activity on the island.
Was this Matthew helping me to be as happy as I can be since he is gone? Or could this just be my imagination?
Regardless it's still crazy..
I'd like to share something with you, that happened to me today, 1/27/17..my husband Dennis passed suddenly in his sleep 19 months ago, of a heart attack..I've had many signs from him, that I've written about many times on here..As have my daughters and granddaughter..
I've been doing pretty good the last few months then out of nowhere I started feeling sad and had a couple of days of surface tear days..I started asking myself wants the use of hanging around..
I said if you're around I need a sign, its been awhile or I might decide to go in a different direction, if I don't get one.. I told Dennis either give me one or go too one of our daughters and give them a sign so I'll know it's real..
My daughter called me a couple of hours ago, and said Mom you won't believed want happened about 3:00 am this morning..She said her alarm went off on her phone for her camera, in her house..
She looked at the video, and noticed the light was on in her family room, she was nervous but went to check, and it had turned out the light that was on was one those you have to turn with your finger to come on..she went back to bed and her dog kept walking back and forth into her family room..this dog never does that..she went back to bed and checked her camera, when she got up, and their was a an orb and also a white whiff of something else on there.. She said I think Dad, that paid me a visit this morning..
Just look and ask for signs..It seems they come when most needed...Also read all the postings under signs by Laurie..Posted in December..
You're not crazy, Matthew is reaching out in the most obvious ways he knows you'll understand..
Take care and come here often and remember you have too go straight through grieve there are no short-cuts..Peace and prayers...Gail...
It is an undeniable fact that there is no way of proving beyond doubt that these spiritual events do actually happen. But, I believe that once you have felt the presence of your loved one or loved ones, there can be no mistake that they really are with you in spirit.
My own experiences and feelings tell me when my Hearty drops in on a visit. The feeling I get is so strong it's like she has actually just walked into the room
