THE GREAT BEYOND...

First, let me apologize for my terrible picture. I haven't gotten it right yet, so please bear with me. this was the best one of the few I took.
This is always an interesting time of the year for me. In my husband's and my combined families, we have had some pretty close relatives die during the next two calendar weeks. Every year, very strange things happen to me during this time. I have had some very odd dreams, have had sensations of someone patting me on the back or gripping my arm, wierd coincidences happen and very odd signs happen. I have become attuned to look for and be open to any and all things that may be a "message " from one of these relatives. It's usually my biological mom who died when I was 4 months old, or my Mother-in Law who died 10 years ago.
Already this year I had a phone call from no one, and feelings of being watched.
The other day, I went shopping, and had a coupon for a free item. I looked and looked for it, but couldn't find it. Then without any reason, I thought to look in a very specific place (inside a book).It was a place I would not have looked in a million years, but something told me to look there, and I was astonished to find the coupon right in front of me. Very odd......
So, I went to the store, used the coupon, and came home. As I was unpacking the bags, I realized that the item wasn't in the bag, and upon searching, it wasn't in any of my bags! I actually went out to the car and looked in the trunk and on the passenger's -side seat, and under the seats...
Nowhere....I came in the house, and after Ihad resigned myself to the fact that it was gone, I went into the bathroom, and there it was, in front of my face, even though I had looked there not 10 minutes beforehand......
I usually don't take these things at face value, I usually think that someone is trying to make me open my eyes and be more aware, like the truth to life is out there if you just open yourself up to seeing it.... That kind of thing...
Anyway....I read an article last week about a woman who wrote about loved ones who have died putting dimes in her path. I used to find so many pennies when I would walk, or in the parking lot at my job. I always thought about the whole "pennies from heaven" thing, and I even saved them in a jar for a year. I gathered quite a few!
Tnight as we were leaving the restaurant we ate at it was getting dark as we came out the door, but I noticed a dime shining on the ground and stooped to pick it up. I said to my husband "this is the beginning of 'that" week!" We sort of laughed it off, but I think there is something to it.
