Norah's Life
Location: N/A
By: Julie
When I was fifteen, my best friend Cathy came into my life, we have been friends for 45 years. Her mother Norah has always been in the background. About ten years ago we started to see more and more of each other and share our lives. Details we would laugh about or cry about. She loved to go out for lunch and talk about her life, I really enjoyed listening. Norah loved stuff that sparkled. We had a pack, that whoever should pass over first would let the other one know they were ok. Norah pass over this past April 2011. She is deeply missed. But shortly after she passed, three times during the night, I saw this wonderful green sparkly light. Right away I knew it was her letting me know she was ok. I have not seen her since, but I know she is there.
Some may never see with earthly eyes these heavenly beings or know that they exist. Many are unaware of the numerous ways they have protected and guided us. We would like to share with you the stories of people who take pleasure in expressing how real angels are.
