Have you ever had that feeling that something Supernatural has happened? I mean, if you were to look at your own personal time-line in life and all the times where someone briefly came into your life, and a very definite life changing experience has happened. You may not have thought anything of it at the time. It may not have even seemed to have been life changing at the time, but when you look back now You can see that it really was.
For me, it was when my sister was in the hospital in 1999. I was working at a posh downtown office and I would take my lunch break to go and visit her on a daily basis.
My boss would always take Fridays off and I would cover the phones. Well, one Thursday when he was getting ready to leave he gave methe usual speech about how he was not going to be in that Friday, I already knew this-but this time was different. HE convinced me to take Friday off as well and spend it with my sister. I told him, That's ok, I will see her after work. At that point he looked me straight in the eye and said-This place will be here on Monday, Where are you going to be 5 years from now? This place will still be here whether or not you are. Business will go on as usual. In 5 years do you want to look back and say I really should have taken that Friday off and spent it with my sister? He had this look as he was saying this that told me that I Absolutley Needed to be with my sister that day.
I took him up on his advice and spent that Friday with my sister...........She tried to get me to go home when her doctor was there, the Doctor told her to let me stay. At that point she looked right at the doctor and said "I'm going to die, aren't I?" The doctor didn't answer, but we all knew. She then asked me to get her some orange juice which I did and she said "thank you, it's good." those were that last conscious moment of my sisters life and she died 2 days later on Valentines day.
I will never forget the Angels from that weekend-I am so thankful that I was able to be there for my sisters last words. And I will be forever grateful. <><
