  • Found Dog!

    Sacred Stories

    Out for a bike ride, she met a woman who had a small dog on a leash.

    “Do you recognize this dog?” the woman asked.

    Stopping, she straddled her bike. The dog had been found the day before. The woman was out walking the neighborhood streets just looking for anyone who knew something.

    She snapped a photo of the dog, jotted down the woman’s contact information, and promptly put up a post on the local Pet-Lost-and-Found Facebook page. Very quickly this sweet little fella was recognized and returned.

    Had she not changed her route that day, she would likely have never made that connection. Whether we realize it or not, our paths are being guided. You have to love a happy ending!

  • Cookies

    Sacred Stories

    He was writing a column about birds sneaking treats without getting caught. The column jogged thoughts he admitted to a friend. When his neighbor, who is an excellent cook, bakes a scrumptious cake, or delicious cookies, he would often entertain thoughts of surreptitiously sneaking into her kitchen and sampling some, without getting caught.

    He thought the birds were more skillful at their thievery than he would be.

    That neighbor delivered a plate full of cookies to him, just as he finished writing the column!

    How often do you think of someone, only to have that person make contact? In powerful ways, without picking up the phone, our thoughts can be transferred….

  • Grasshopper

    Sacred Stories

    She was walking their dog on the usual path. There were always grasshoppers jumping out of the way on the sidewalk.

    Her husband had died. This particular day was the second anniversary of her husband’s transition, and she was walking and crying and wishing for the simple pleasure of holding his hand.

    At that very moment, a grasshopper jumped into her hand! The grasshopper stayed there a while before hopping off.

    She felt a calm and peace come over her, along with a big smile on her face. For that brief moment she felt the connection of holding his hand. It was a moment of sheer joy!

  • Window Washer

    Sacred Stories

    One summer, she was working on a window washing crew. The crew was doing a house above the lake where the owner had passed away.

    Late in the afternoon, she created an intention to be a channel for this gentleman if he cared to communicate. She received a very clear message: “Mind your own business. You are only the window washer!”

    The crew got a good laugh out of it.

  • Cracked Lid

    Sacred Stories

    A friend’s obituary showed up in my inbox at work. I process obits.

    My friend was 97. She had given me a Tupperware container before she moved away four years earlier.

    My lunch salad was in that container. The previous day I noticed the lid had cracked….

    At that exact moment of her wondering, a second street light also went out!

  • You Called Me!

    Sacred Stories

    Her phone rang. The caller ID showed only the city. No number or name was identified. She took the call.

    The friend she had had lunch with earlier that day was on the line. The friend said, “You called me!”

    Many say they notice how technology seems to be sensitive to the spiritual realm….

  • Timely Delivery!

    Sacred Stories

    It was such a gift that someone was there to perform CPR on her husband when he collapsed. The most significant synchronicity was that the mail carrier who saved his life was running two hours later than usual, plus it was her first day back on the job after two weeks off!

  • Mandarin Oranges!

    Sacred Stories

    Her most frequent snack of late was mandarin oranges. She was driving on a four-lane road, when—on the dotted line in her lane—she saw a single mandarin orange slice.

    Recognizing it as odd, she missed the message of a visit from her husband until the very next day (on a different four-lane road!) she saw—again on the dotted line in her lane—another single mandarin orange slice.

  • Electricity

    Sacred Stories

    She and her grandson were driving in her car. He was working on his homework, and asked her to turn the radio off. She did, but a block later, the radio came back on!

    When she would get into her car, she noticed the bright lights would be on. She knew she never left them on high beam. As she backed out of the driveway, her turn signal came on. She looked up and the rear view mirror was tilted down.

    At that moment, she knew for sure she had been visited by her husband.

    (Note* Many people say they experience odd electrical system happenings with their loved ones who have transitioned.)
