He never had a birthday after 48, my dad.
Last week, we went on the boat (his happy place) to celebrate. This birthday I felt sad. Over the years there have been many I haven’t even remembered (sorry Dad 😂 ). 2024 has been a big year and feels like he has missed out and we have missed out not having him around.
While on the water, I had a moment thinking how cool it would be if he were here, fishing with his grandsons, getting to meet them and seeing the life we’ve built.
I had a little cry behind my sunglasses & asked him for a sign, which I haven’t done for years. I wanted to know he’s still watching over us.
A few days later, the rain came. Not just a drizzle but it poured. Just like the time there was a massive downpour for days and days after our wedding, where it never rains in August in North Queensland.
Or the time it poured so hard while I was in labour that roads were cut off. After he died it rained for 2 months straight and I used to always think the rain was his tears.
And then, the very next day, I had a HeartHealing session with a client. In her session, her late husband came through with powerful advice, words she needed to hear.
It’s the fourth time this has happened during a session—when a loved one who has passed joins, bringing messages of love and closure. It’s always such a special experience. And I can’t explain it or the healing it brings.
I know this time of year can highlight people who are no longer here. If you’re missing someone, you could try ask for a sign. You might just feel their presence in ways you can’t explain but know, deep down, are real. For me, it’s rain. ❤️
