The Brother

On a bright sunny spring day, I walked across the lawn from the barn to the house of a friend to use the restroom. I walked inside and immediately was greeted by her brother in spirit. I never meet her brother and never knew one existed. Our friendship was just beginning; we both would have a lot to learn about one another and her brother would bring a message that would bring us closer.

Mandy’s brother stood tall and thin. Tells me immediately that he looks like his Dad with his dark brown hair, brown eyes and skin that glowed with a tan. He immediately tells me he can still run faster than his sister. Shows himself in a track uniform and tall sport socks striped of blue, blue short shorts and white tank top crossing his arms he leans against a car. Quickly he changes how I am to view him and dresses himself in Levi’s and t-shirt still leaning against the car in the dark. He say’s, ‘I left to soon. I am okay sis. I know you want to talk to me one last time. That is your wish with every wishbone winning pull. You have stopped talking since I have been gone. You have to feel me in your heart and let yourself heal.” He then starts to show me four children the exact number of children Mandy has. More messages come through. The boys are young men now. He is with them often and shares with me one of them has a learning disability and will grow to have a drinking problem. He was most concerned with this nephew but assured me that he will have his own business as an adult though these problems will occur due to lack of confidence he will walk with him to assist him. His last words were about his little sister. “She will push you Mandy! This pushing will be for your good. You don’t always see her but she see’s you. She is sensitive like you and she will develop the emotions that are lost in your heart. She is the glue and the strength that you need. You find laughter and family and she pulls you all together. He shows me a ring. You will marry again. Mandy is married and this was a bit of a confusion. He said you will find true love. I love you sis. I am happy and well and you will be too.

A year after receiving this message Mandy’s husband passed unexpectedly. Mandy is remarried and her heart is healed.
