The Perfectly Placed Feather

Looking up this morning while taking a shower, I saw in the skylight window a perfectly placed feather. It was absolutely centered, and even placed as you would frame a painting with more weight on the bottom 3rd. I know my Mother, and her sensibilities about framing and displaying art were impeccable. This was her sign to me. After my shower I ran to get my camera. The feather had already started drifting, and was not so perfectly placed.  What are the chances that I would happen to look up at exactly the time that the feather was displayed so perfectly??  As i continued to watch the feather it just blew away.

I have been thinking a lot lately of my mother, and missing her terribly.  Sometimes I just can’t believe that she is gone. Thank-you so much mom for sending me this sign and letting me know that you are still there for me, still watching out for me, and still caring. It is hard not to have her in my physical life any longer. But – she sends me these signs. I see her in the clouds. I see her in the ‘glorious flowers’.  I am still opening up books that she sent to me with her loving handwritten notes to me.

I would so love to call her and talk with her. She knows me better than just about anyone. She is still there. I feel her presence.
