I love to encourage people to believe in their own intuition, visions, dreams and sense about a person or situation in general! There are so many examples I could give where I did not listen to what others told me and followed my gut instinct and was blessed for it. Never question it: for once you own your intuition, begin really listening, a kind of magic unfolds and your intuition will become clearer and clearer with time because you experience little miracles regarding how it made a world of difference to listen!
I love telling stories so I will share one with you in hopes of inspiring you to listen to your own truth!
Hi My name is Nancy. I experienced being very intuitive, my whole life and many times was teased, labeled and called names because my heart was so trusting I thought it was natural to share everything I saw sensed and felt, with others. I believed everyone saw, sensed and heard things the same way I did. I was very trusting and naieve. I learned to hide this part of myself, eventually,out of the sadness I felt being so misunderstood and labeled as "too sensitive". I no longer hide these things, but that is another story! After about 10 years of hiding this part of myself, because I wanted to feel I belonged, my life began what some may call falling apart. I was taking care of my elder in laws and moved them into my home, when me and my husband both lost our jobs. Soon after I contacted an illness from a hospital and was sick for a year. Then I lost a baby and my sweet father passed away. Eventually, we lost our house and everything we owned. I was well enough to travel, so I packed up and followed spirits voice, my intuition and a vision I had of moving to California to start over. I first had exausted any other venues I could engage with to help me stay near my family in Michigan. My husband stayed behind to wrap up business. It was difficult leaving my son with my ex husband( I knew I would send for him once I was settled and did not want to take him out of school)and moving to the only place where someone had offered to help which was in California with my sister. After living in a van for a while my husband came out and we together began rebuilding our lives. I decided to look at all of the losses as new beginnings and thanked the angel I saw that encouraged me to go back to trusting my inner voice and make the move and my family WOULD all be back together again, soon. . I was so thankful for a place to sleep after spending 5 days on a bus with my 4 year old. I could not live in her house because she was a foster parent and anyone who lived in the house had to be fingerprinted first.Skipping a couple of years I was now in a rental. My husband was there and I was hired doing something I really loved and could work from home. My son whom with a broken heart I left in Michigan with his father from my first marriage came out and my family was together again.
At 40 years old I became pregnant. It was a beautiful surprise and finally it just felt as if life was sweeter than it had been in a long time. Into my third month the doctor told me that my baby would be born with a rare illness, would only live 2 months and to prepare my family and abort the baby immediately. I went home in shock. Another kick in the gut and other loss. I remembered the angel that had come to me and encouraged me to move to California and showed me that my family would heal and come together again. She also showed me that MY baby WOULD live!
I had another little visit from this same angel. I recognized the soft comforting energy from when she told me my family would all come together and be healed. In my mind, I was curious and asked myself about what this angels name might be. I heard what I remembered to be "Ania".
She asked me to name the child after her and to believe the pregnancy would be blessed. I spent the next 4-5 mos in bed praying every waking moment. Asking that the baby's illness would be filtered into my own body.I ended up with big black welts and raised bumps all over my legs and even the specialists could not figure out what they were!I gained lots of weight not being able to get up and around and was in pain from a constant sensation that my legs were on fire. The last month I did not even lift my head to greet visitors as I was emotionally and physically exausted. What kept me going was my belief that what I heard, saw, sensed and envisioned with my ANGEL was my truth and I NEVER stopped believing that my baby would live!
One day the baby was born and she was not breathing. I remember the same doctor that told me to abort my baby looked at me with a look on his face saying :"I told you so". As they revived the baby girl I said out loud to my my husband; I am naming the baby after my angel: Ania. If I only get to hold this precious bundle for a few weeks then so be it! She will meet her family and we would all love her as much as we could while she was here!
So 12 years later Ania; is a beautiful sweet kind creative funny little animal whisperer, actress, computer geek, sister, daughter, cousin, the youngest tribal leader at her school and so much more! And now four years later, as I add to my 4 year old post,she is sweet, intellegent, kind to others and everyone loves her!
She is here because I listened. I spent 10 years not listening and lost everything I had built while not being truthful with myself about my intuition! Never again! I always encouraged my children to trust their own truths, no matter what anyone said :) My Ania is a miracle and living proof that YOU MUST LISTEN and teach your children to trust themselves also! Look what I have been blessed with now, because I always do. Join me and listen to your own beautiful inner voice!
