TALES FROM THE BOBBI LAMA

My late husband’s birthday recently brought me some calls from loved ones who wanted to remember Jack with me that morning. As the day went on, it was bitter sweet. I was happy he was born, but I truly missed his physical presence and tried not to stay low with sadness. I quietly spoke to him throughout the day knowing he was around but would have loved a sign. I also assumed he did a spiritual nudge to several friends who just happened to call even though they didn’t know it was his birthday. They all said I just popped into their minds and they felt the need to connect. I must admit, connecting with people truly gives me joy, and sharing old memories of my late husband’s antics with them does, too.

At the end of the day as I walked into my bedroom, I suddenly heard something. It was the Roomba Robot vacuum sitting in it’s docking station in the corner across the room making a humming sound. The red light, that goes on when a cleaning job is done, was lit up. The thing is, though, the Roomba hadn’t been used in over a month, and the power in our house had not been interrupted. I don’t know any reason for it to be lit up, but I do know Jack likes to mess with appliances. His spiritual energy and his sense of humor was the best sign he could send me on his birthday!
