Have you ever seen something - or someone - from the corner of your eye? Did you ever have a vivid dream of a deceased friend or relative?
Apparently, the spirits of the dead are often around us, trying to communicate, but we're simply too busy and distracted to notice. When we do notice, we quickly attribute it to our imagination (isn't that often the most reassuring route)?
A special greeting from Grandad
When my husband's maternal grandfather passed away in Australia, he was devastated. They shared a unique bond: one bound by similar interests, personalities and memories.
Roughly 3 years after Grandad's passing, my husband had a vivid dream. He was in his Grandad's shack somewhere in the Australian Outback (coincidentally his Grandad's favorite place). There, sat his Grandad in the corner of the room. He looked much healthier - and younger - than when he passed away.
The sentimental conversation that ensued was as meaningful as the encounter itself. His Grandad validated every NEW aspect of my husband's life (since his passing), "Don't feel guilty about leaving Australia... I left England for Australia when I was younger than you. Canada is a beautiful country. Explore it!" He also revealed that he knew we had plans to marry and that he couldn't think of anyone better for my husband than me (naturally, I had to insert that comment). Their dreamtime talk was reminiscent of when Grandad was alive.
PROOF: This Was More Than a Dream
Grandad suddenly told my husband, "I have to go now, and you also have to wake up very soon." When my husband woke up from his amazing encounter, it was one minute before his alarm clock was set to go off!
We've all had dreams of loved ones... So many people have told me about their visions or sightings of loved ones while they sleep. I've been blessed with a few dreams of my grandfather. Some that I plan to share with you in future blog posts.
Why do the deceased choose dreams to send messages?
Are we more attuned or receptive to their otherwordly forms?
Are we easier to access when not bombarded by the overstimulation that plagues our waking lives?
Do we travel to visit them? Of do they always come to us?
These experiences often leave us with more questions than answers...
When was the last time YOU were visited by a deceased loved one?
