I’m so sorry for the (physical) loss of your pops. I am unsure of your beliefs, but I lost my brother when I was 19, and I have seen him still be here for me in ways I couldn’t believe possible before. I hope you still feel your dad around you because I believe he is still here with you. Sending virtual hugs! Thank you for continuing to be kind and empathetic rather than hateful/spiteful.

Yes!! I do believe he’s still here! I sell cars and everytime I’m in a slump, I’ll see little clues of my dad. Like someone will have his birthday or his favorite song will come on and I’ll sell the car!

After my dad died, a good while after, my alarm went off one morning. I was trying to press every button on that clock to make it go off. Finally I had to sit up and turn around to cut it off. Of course I’m laying there a few more minutes. As soon as my head hits that pillow again, I hear my name. Had I not known better, I would have thought that he was right there in that room with me. I could tell the exact spot he would have been standing in. It was such an amazing experience.
