Guardian Spirit
Burlington, ON
by Kate Kingston
Date: September 2000.
Time: 5PM
I had quit my job at a large office in Burlington and my supervisor
asked me to please stay after work to read her palms. (That's what
you get when you tell people you can do it! :) ) She was semi-skeptic
going into the read, but was amazed when I showed her the death of
her grandmother when (my boss) was 21, an accident when she was 26,
her marriage, divorce, etc. Another girlfriend called me over to her
desk to ask for a quick reading, and my supervisor followed. There
was a nasty thunderstorm raging outside, and most of the other staff
had cleared out by this time to race to their cars in the rain. I
gave my
friend her read, and then she and my supervisor stood around comparing
notes.
When my supervisor got to telling us about the car accident she had
been in, she got a little teary as she remembered how she had almost
died. All of a sudden there was a woman standing behind her, hand
on her shoulder, comforting her.
Apparently I stopped dead still and stared, because another friend
(who knows I see things) said "You just saw something, didn't
you!". Now I never tell people when I see things, because I don't
know if it is my imagination or not, and I wouldn't want to upset
that person! But this time, I felt I could, so I described the woman,
what she was wearing, how she had her hair, her facial expression...my
supervisor burst into tears! It was her grandmother! The woman had
died when my boss was 21, as I had showed in her lines, of colon cancer.
She had been in the hospital for months, and always wore the yellow
gown that I saw her in. I told my boss that she was there, and that
she wanted her to know that she had been with her since she left this
life, as a guardian. She calmed right down and smiled! She had always
thought her grandma was there, and now she knew she was right...and
that she could count on her grandma to be there when she needed her.
