Do you believe in the supernatural? What is it about stories that involve thrillers, sci-fi, or the supernatural that captivate us so much? Especially when they feel so real?
Let me share a personal experience.
Shortly after my husband passed away, I heard him calling my name from the next room. The voice was unmistakable, and I rushed in, only to find the room empty. I am certain it was him.
Not long after that, I had a vivid dream of him standing by my bed. In the dream, he reassured me, saying, “It’s better than you could ever imagine.” I woke up feeling a sense of peace and happiness.
I believe he found a way to let me know he was okay. Since then, I’ve had many vivid dreams of him, each bringing comfort in its own way.
