Is my deceased sister-in-law trying to contact us?

Strange things often happen to me after somebody passes away.

I’m not surprised that it’s happening again since the recent death of my sister-in-law.

I believe that the portal between the dead and the living is rather fluid, especially right after somebody passes away. Sometimes there is a type of limbo, and the entity doesn’t know where it belongs.

It happened after my older brother passed six months ago. Smoke alarms went awry. A bird hit the screen and died. I guess it’s happening again.

But these things don’t frighten me, because I believe the deceased have a unique way of making themselves known. A spirit can manifest itself in so many ways. There could be a familiar smell, an apparition, lights going on and off, or another form of electrical outage.

Sometimes I’ve received messages from other people who have departed, which have helped guide me in making some major decisions.

So here’s what has happened over the past few days. On the night she died, there was a silhouette of the outside bushes on our bedroom wall. Both Erika and I were awake when Erika told me that the shadows were a shimmering bright purple. My sister-in-law’s favorite color was lavender. It was a great comfort to Erika, who has felt so much grief with her sister’s sudden death.

When I looked at the same wall a few minutes later, the background behind the bushes pulsated a turquoise blue. My sister-in-law was all about fluorescent colors. Maybe she wanted to say hello to me as well?

The following day, the light in our living room went on. We never used that light. Maybe it was her sister.

Today Erika saw her sister’s car go down our street. It’s a rare turquoise Mercedes sports car with a dark blue top. Maybe she’s visiting us? She used to live three doors down from us. Just now, I was on the phone trying to get a refund on some travel arrangements when I briefly saw a figure walking down the hall behind me. I assumed it was Erika because she was taking a nap in the adjacent bedroom but when I asked her about it, she said she was still in bed.

My sister-in-law had a troubled life and created a lot of discord with those around her. Before she passed, I asked her if she could do some good from the other side. Maybe she will. Maybe she will realize that the material world isn’t what the world is all about. Perhaps she will realize that her constant quest for money, status, and prestige alienated her from other people.

I’m waiting for more signs. Perhaps she’ll help us get that trip reimbursed. But if she wants to do more than that, I certainly would welcome that.

So who was walking down the hall 10 minutes ago? I hope it’s a positive vibe from her.
