Yesterday before leaving to travel three hours away to my cousins’ husbands’ funeral, I asked during meditation for two specific Spirits to accompany me. They are both dear to my heart and their presence gives me comfort in this very human world. I often get winks from heaven from them in the form of any combination of “0513” and “Georgia”.  As my brother was driving I was free to chat and scan the passing landscapes- out into the countryside we rode passing pastures of cows and long stretches of highway.  

It wasn’t long before a car whizzed in front of us with a Georgia license plate with the very numbers- “3315”- a very clear message from Spirit they had heard me.  I continued to see variations of these numbers and many license plates form Georgia as well- (we were in Pennsylvania….)  

Being a hospice nurse for over 20 years I have attended many, many funerals, but it is a much different experience when it is family. I hadn’t seen my cousin in years- we just lived parallel lives that rarely intersected- but my love for her runs deep.  We spent many childhood summers on Cape Cod- and though our childhood is now a distant memory it remains the essence of our bond. Hugging her and her sister was a balm for my Soul. 

Pink Floyds’ “Wish you were here” was played on guitar at the beginning of the service, a beautiful rendition by a family member. His voice cracking as he sang- “How I wish, how I wish you were here…” 

A few hours later our car stopped at a traffic light just a few moments from home. I hear a song playing in the air from a car behind us…. “How I wish, how I wish you were here. We’re just two lost Souls swimming in a fish bowl…” A beautiful wink from heaven….
