So, I’m walking back from yet another charity shop run, ahead of my move later this month. Late afternoon sunshine, the last of the beautiful Autumn leaves grace my road. I turned the corner, thinking about Tom and how much I miss him still, when I looked up and… there on the pavement, about 50 yards ahead, was a couple. Seen from behind, a woman and a tall, older man. I was winded - the man looked exactly like Tom - tall, lean, well-dressed, grey-haired. So much about him was the same. I turned away and faced the opposite direction, trying to breathe through it ( I know you will know what I mean). A minute passed, maybe two. I knew I had to turn around, so did… and there was the woman, still walking ahead, but completely alone. I don’t know what to make of it, less still how to feel. I plodded on, to my gate, the gate I once shared with Tom, and went in. Sending love to everyone on here, this dark and cold Sunday evening x

That’s definitely strange. Some weird things do happen.
Did you feel Tom? I hope it gave you comfort? X

It was a sign, I think, that he is still with me, still loves me and is there, on the road, a little way ahead of me. Like all our loved ones lost to our touch, but held so tenderly in our hearts. I hope all is well with you, my dear @Ali29 x

It’s been a difficult week but we rise above and I will be ok.
I do believe they are with us and they send us a sign now and again.
