A few days after Tom's passing, Natasha and I were out on a walk. I am used to seeing lots of butterflies on my walks, especially when I walk out towards the cemetery by the fields. That morning, one butterfly kept fluttering around me and I commented to Tasha that maybe it was Tom letting me know he was okay. Since then, every time I see a butterfly, I think of Tom. As I was walking this morning, I saw even more butterflies than usual and I saw a dragonfly. I had read somewhere recently that seeing a dragonfly means someone who has passed on is "visiting you". Now, I don't really believe that stuff but in a way, I do believe it as well. Because seeing the butterflies and the dragonfly have made me smile and think of Tom in a happy way and so in that sense, it is definitely real. I knew this was going to be hard, but I just had no idea how incredibly hard it would be. I guess there was no way to "prepare" for it even though I knew it was coming.

I’m right there with you. I’ve never believed in that but Robin has so many friends that believe I’m trying to get there. My problem is the first couple weeks after she passed I saw lots of cardinals-that was out sign. I’ve not seen anything in weeks but I too am told to stop looking so hard. It’ll come and let you know all is well with our loved ones.

AuthorMy passion is to share the importance of playing, and not just as a child, but as an adult also. It is so important to take the time to play and be active. Our children are losing that. CategoriesArchives
