Signs

Hi all, 

I sadly lost my partner 8 months ago to Colon cancer after being diagnosed he passed within 8 weeks he was only 46 ️

I've never been spiritual or religious in any way and neither was my partner. We planned to buy a house together this year which I have now done on my own.. I was drawn to look at this property even though it was slightly over my budget but something made me want to view it.. on the first visit the lady who was selling told me it was her Mums house who had passed a few months before, then on the 2nd viewing I found out my partners Auntie used to own the house and her Mum purchased it from her a few years ago, this just made me want it more.

I picked the keys up today and went to visit him to tell him ️ later this evening I put on my dressing gown to get a drink downstairs and my daughter said '' you've got a feather on your sleeve'' I can't say I believe in these things...now it could have been a clunk of cotton thread but it was sticking right out shaped like a feather end..  it really does make you want to believe.. it certainly got to me and made my heart skip a beat ️

Also reading on here ( I thought it was just me ) but I also experienced a flock of birds about 20 of them all in one row on the top of our garage a week after he passed I thought it strange as they came from nowhere.. it really does make you wonder if these things are really signs from our loved ones ️ xx

    I do have faith and believe I will be reunited with my mum one day but I've always been a bit sceptical about white feathers and the like but now I'm not so sure. My mum died in March this year and both close relatives and friends commented on feathers around the house but as we have seagulls nesting on our roof I didn't pay much attention. My mum and I loved gardening and spent many happy hours weeding and planting both flowers and veg. Just before my birthday in August I noticed a tiny viola growing in a few grains of soil on my driveway, it seemed to have self seeded and as it was pretty I left it to grow. The amazing thing is that although we have had both flooding and stormy weather here over the past few months that little flower is standing strong. I'm now wondering if it was sent to encourage me to do the same thing. My mum bought the flowers this one would have seeded from and always gave off to me for pulling up little seedlings that were growing in the wrong place. I'm not sure if this is a sign but it makes me feel warm inside when I look at it.
