View Full Version : Watching over you.......
Do you think people watch over you???
Whenever I'm really upset or things are getting too much for me and I find myself sobbing ,not knowing what to do, I always smell pipes. The old fashioned kind that my grandfather used to smoke.
When I smell this ,my tears stop instantly and I feel all warm inside. I smile and know that my Grandfather is looking down on me.
I have told DH to come into the room when this happens and he can smell it to! There isn't anything else the smell could be, it's so unique. It happens whether I'm in my own house or someone else's.
I told my sister in England about this and she was so shocked, she says she experiences exactly the same thing!! How freaky is that!:eek:
Anybody else out there have experiences like this or feel that someone is watching over them???

Hi Natasha,
Its very easy for me personally to answer that question - YES!!!!!. My mum passed away 8years ago now & when I'm upset or down or stressed I can 'feel' her energy around me &voila instantly feel composed & peaceful.
Yes, my mum before she died told me to always look for her in a rainbow and to listen for her voice when the frogs sing. Maybe I just look for those things when I'm down and luckily I find them? Have to exit, too much emotion...

My sister Bronwyn (Bonnie) comes to visit , sometimes when i'm feeling down:crying:
there was a song on the radio , that she used to love maybe she was showing me she is there with me as i was thinking about her before the song came on
she died when she was 15 years old she was walking across a road and got hit by a truck that was on 22/3/97 ,
well i had a dream or was it a Dream ?
In the dream i was hugging her so tight and she was stroking my hair and i was crying well i woke up in the sitting postion it felt so real i had tears running down my face . :crying:
YES! my grandma passed when i was just 5 years old but i still have really vivid memories of her. i've kind of had the same experience except i can smell jasmine (we used to walk thru her garden where she grew jasmine) but its not so much about signs its just a feeling, some kind of connection with her, ya know?? we were born just one day apart and very close, but its a good feeling :) and i hope she blesses us with lots of baby dust while TTC this month :fingerscrossed:

It is funny that I should see this thread tonight - earlier I was varnishing our new sand pit when something made me think of my great Aunt watching over me, which led me to thinking well then maybe Grandma was watching too - and in that case maybe Nanna - and so on....
So I found myself wondering - if you can watch over people once you have gone, how many people they can watch over at once, and if they are 'passed over' surely it wouldn't interest them to watch over boring old me varnishing some wood by the lights of a four wheeler!
Etc etc - then I came across this thread - Hmmmm - I wonder

ok guys you might think im a bit nutty
but my dps dad died from a car accident up near cairn atherton
area when he was 4
ive only ever seen a black and white photo of him
wich dp always has
but ive been seeing him since we got back together
hes only let me see him properly once when we went to visit tims uncle (brians brother)
apart from that he hs stood near a door way or something
watching me even while dp was
at work (ok if that isnt nutty enough for you)
heres the rest
i had this funny feeling he was hiding something
and i asked him straight out (yes i know hes dead but anywya)
my step dad made a few phone calls and we finally got to
the bottom of his accident the police just assumed he aqua planed
but could work out why he had been on the worng side of the road
this anon person confirmed what i thought that he had over taken someone and lost it cause of the heavey rain
now since we have found this out he hasnt been back
(told you you would think im nutty)
you sound normal to me :D thanks for sharing .

Hi Nasha, It was freaky when I read your thread regarding the smell of your grandfathers pipe. I was very close to my grandpop and he was always smoking those old-fashioned stinky pipes as well. I have felt his presence quite a few times since he passed away, but there was one particular time (about 10 yrs ago) when I was going through a very unhappy period in my life and I got a real strong whiff of that pipe smell and felt like he had his hand on my shoulder saying everything will work out and I'll be o.k. Just after that visit from him all my problems were worked out.I have only smelt that pipe smell that one time but still feel his presence every now and then.See-ya!!

My husband mother passed away 10 yrs ago, I never knew her, but i have one of her rings i wear every day on my right hand, went through a really rough patch awhile ago with DH because he immigrated here, and all the associated emotions that go wth that..............I considered leaving him,and was really upset and anxious one night, then suddenly realised that ring was on my wedding finger and my wedding ring was on my right, then i got a really cosy feeling and cried.............I probably did it, but I NEVER do that!!!! Think his MUM was having a chat.............I just said "I'll look after him Mum don't worry" and got on with life!!!!
Was a really eerie feeling!!!!!
