unexpected feathers

if it gives people comfort, what's the harm? I'm not sure if those who have died can contact us or not but I do know whenever I lose anything, especially of sentimental value, I ask my late DH to help me find it and I always do, usually somewhere I have already looked!

If only!

Best of luck to your daughter Inishowen, what lovely news for you all.

Wishing her (and you!) well, after so much sadness, she deserves her baby x

My daughter has had five miscarriages in the last two years. Recently we started seeing white feathers in unusual places. Then we found out my daughter was pregnant again, and has passed the dangerous stage. I know it's probably nonsense but I like to think it was a message from my mum in heaven to say all would be well this time.

A few months ago, during a particularly stressful time, I found a little white feather on the dining room table.
It probably blew in through a small open window but at the time I found it comforting and it helped me grit my teeth and face the day.
To be honest, at the time, I think I would have believed in fairies at the bottom of the garden if I thought it would have helped!

That's a kind thing to say, Anya. And who's to say they're wrong anyway?

Several in the coop this morning. One of the Warrens is moulting.

I just found a bunch of feathers under my bird feeders...RIP another pigeon, I'm afraid.

Feathers fall off birds all the time, they blow around and get everywhere. If angels or those who have passed on wish to send us messages, I would have thought they could do it more directly. However, I agree that people believe what they want to believe - and if they believe that a message is on its way, perhaps they become more receptive?

People believe what they need to believe.

Can't go along with this. I think there was a thread about angels which suggested something similar though.
