PLEASE TAKE THIS DOVE AS A SYMBOL OF PEACE &
PASS IT ON TO SOMEONE YOU LOVE!!
HI...My Name is "Cheryl"
I Created this Site to help all of those in
need of a touch from up above!
I have been touched by a "Spiritual Experience" that
awakened me to the Realities in this World & made me believe that there is a "Higher Existence" that we
all will be going to someday.
I would like to ask a
favor from all of you viewing this page, to please
E-mail me if you know of
someone who has had a Spiritual Experience that has
awakened them (Touched them so deeply that they too
Believe). Please feel free to send them this page so
that they can read it.
First off I would like to thank My Mother (God rest
her Soul). For I know she is with me all the time and helping me build this Site!!! I don`t know if you or anyone viewing this page right now believes in "Angels", but if you are viewing this page then you must believe somewhat!!
My Background music is by Rod Stewart. The Title is "Sailing". I
wanted to have this song play because it reminded me of the
Song that was Playing on the Radio on my drive back home with my Brother Rick in our Mothers car. This song is special to me as it came on the radio while we were driving back home to Las Vegas after our mothers service. We both started crying. It also reminded both of us about the Dream I had before we left our mothers house. You can read about my dream further down on this page.
Below you will read about my "FIRST" Spiritual Experience. All the Stories on my pages are True Events which have already happened to me or my Family & Friends.
The Guardian
There are those who believe, so the story is told,
that at birth you receive, your own Angel to hold.
You come into this world on a wing and a prayer,
and throughout your lifetime, she will always be there.
A Guardian Angel, who will guide what you do,
her pure essence is love, sent to watch over you.

MY MOTHER`S GRAVESITE SERVICE
My Mother passed away May 3, 1995 the day after my
Birthday. I flew back to Illinois with my brother to
view her body the following weekend. To make a long
story short I will tell you exactly what happened.
One Spiritual Experience I will never forget!!
My Mother didn`t want to have a funeral, but wanted
to be Cremated, so we all went to view her body
before that came about. I cried as I said my last goodbyes and told her things I never got to tell her. Like, "Thank You" for the Birthday card, because I had called her on the phone when she was in the Hospital to tell her that, but she wasn`t feeling very
good & didn`t want to talk to anyone. I Also wanted to tell her that I Love Her Very Much & will Miss Her a Lot!! I found out the next day that she had passed away at 2:55pm later on that same day I called her to Thank her. But I didn`t realize till later how much I really do miss her now...
That night at my Mothers house my brothers and
sisters & I sat around the table discussing things.
We all decided to have a little ceremony at the Grave Site where my Mother wanted her ashes spread over Her Mothers Grave. I have a Half Brother (John) who is a
Psychic and he is my oldest Brother. He said he would stay up and put a Sermon together. I went with my
other brother to buy flowers (red roses to be exact)
because we had all decided that a red rose for each
one of us was to be put on top of our Grandmothers Grave then our Mothers ashes spread on top, like she was being laid on a "Bed of Roses". We also bought carnations for all the Grandkids to do the same.
The next day was the Service. We all drove the hour
or two to the Cemetary. Silence Paved the way. When
we got there we walked silently & solemnly to the Grave of my Grandmother and Grandfather. My Half Brother John, started the sermon. Then we each put a Red Rose on top of our Grandmothers Grave and the Grandkids that were there placed their Carnations over the Red Roses. Then we spread my Mom`s ashes on top of the Roses & Carnations, each taking a turn holding the Urn.
Then John turned on the tape recording that he had taped the night before. The very first song that came on the tape he had recorded was, "Wind Beneathe My Wings", By Bette Midler.
Anyway, as soon as the Music started my sister Vickie was standing right next to me and she grabbed my arm. I thought she was grabbing me for support, but instead she was pointing up to the sky and when I looked up there was a cloud floating over us that looked just like an Angel. As soon as the song was over the cloud disappeared. By the way, did I forget to tell you that there weren`t any other clouds in the sky!!!
We were startled and glad at the same time because we now know our mother is in a better place.
This Spiritual Experience I had was what led me to
make my first Home Page on the Internet. It is also why
I have made it a Tribute to My Mother. There is more that happened to me while I was still at my mothers house. Those stories are at the bottom of this page & other pages in My Site! Below you will read my second Spiritual Experience that happened to me after my Mothers Service back at her house. I Hope this story inspires all of you reading this page. Never be afraid to express yourself and let your feelings flow!!
MY DREAM
It began when I got back to my mothers trailer, it
was pretty late, it was a long drive back from the cemetary.
I was suppose to fly back home the next evening. My
Brother was going to drive my mothers car back to Las Vegas where we live.
Anyway, all week long I had been sleeping on the sofa in my mothers living room. That night I had decided
to sleep in my mothers bed on the side of the bed where she always slept. I didn`t know which side that was so, I told my Brother, (since I was flying home the next evening) that I wanted to sleep in her bed, because he had been sleeping in the bed the whole time we were there.
So he said okay, you pick the side of the bed you want and I`ll sleep on the other side. So I picked the left side of the bed. My brother told me that, that was the side our mother always slept on!! So I laid down and he laid on the other side and we were just casually chatting about the days events and other things. Then we both fell asleep.
That night I had a dream so real it was scary!!
I dreamed that my brother and I were driving down the highway back home, and there was a white cloud floating behind us following us all the way home. I pictured it as an Angel (my mother) after what had
happened at her service the day before...I truly still believe it was her.
When I woke up I told my brother about the dream I had and he told me he had had a similar dream and saw the same thing I saw. That afternoon before my flight was suppose to take off there were tornado warnings out. A really bad storm had moved in the area. I cancelled my flight because I had decided that I was going to drive back home with my brother in my mothers car just like in the dream. That is just what I did!!
I believe that the dream I had was a warning not to
fly home that night and that our mother was watching over us.
For those of you who have had Experiences like this,
I believe you think they are Psychic dreams, or
Premonitions. But as for my Dream I believe that it was
Spirituality more than anything else!!
Well, I have shared a little more about myself with all of you!! Please share your Dreams or Visions or whatever you call them with me!!
For all of you who have enjoyed reading these
stories, I have built a Continuing Page of Spiritual Experiences of my Family & Friends. There are more stories of mine & stories I received from my Friends. Just Click onto the Title: "Cheryl's Spiritual Awakening/Page 2" the next page in My Site. I`m sure you will enjoy that page, that is if you liked this one. ~S~
Friends Forever, Cheryl
Being loved this much should make a difference in your life. Remember the One who loves you - and then, be different because of it.
Speaking of a Mothers Love...Here is another one of my Experiences.
MY NEW JOB
I had been out of work for 5 months and was waiting
for a new store to be built up the street from my house. I had already filled out an application at a sister store from the one being built up the street.
I wrote on the application that I would like to work
at the new store that was being built. It was to open soon, as it was almost finished being built.
Well, I got a call from the Manager of the New store
asking me to come in for an interview the following
day.
That night before going to bed, I asked my mother for help in getting this job. (I asked my mother because I knew she was my Guardian Angel at the time...Especially after what had happened at her
Service those 8 months ago!!)
The next day I went into the new store. It was the
day after the Grand Opening. January 12, 1996. I saw a Man stocking
shelves with merchandise and I recognized him. He used to be my Field Rep. when I worked for 7-11. I said, "Hello". He recognized me and asked if I was going to put in an Application for a job. I told him
that I already did and that I was there for my Interview with the Manager. He said, "Good, I`ll put in a good word for you!" I said, "Thanks".
We were still talking about things when the Manager
walked out and saw us talking. She asked me if I knew him and I told her that he used to be my Field Rep. at 7-11 when I worked there. She took me in the back room and started the Interview. After asking me all the questions she told me that he (Mike) was one of
the Company`s Supervisors. I didn`t even know that he had left the Southland Corporation. He had been with this Company for over a year now.She sent me on my way and told me that she would contact me in a day or 2 and let me know if I was hired.
That same afternoon, about 3 hours later, I received a phone call from her stating that I was hired and could I start the next day? I started the following day!
Now you all may think that this has nothing to do with my asking my mother to help me get this job.
Could it all be just a coincidence that Mike just happened to be there stocking the shelves or was it Devine Intervention????
Whatever it was....I have now been at the same store it will be 5 years this coming January 12, 2001. The day after my Mothers Birthday.
By the way...Did I tell you that the Grand Opening of the store was on my Mothers Birthday and that is when I asked her for her help in getting the job.
We all have Guardian Angels and Spirit Guides looking out for us and helping us. All we have to do is acknowledge that they are there and that they will help us whenever we ask for help or Guidance in our
lives.
I hope you all enjoy these stories of True Life Spiritual Experiences. If you look closely at your lives and open your eyes & your mind you will see and recognize things that have actually happened with and in your own lives. It will also make you feel better and
Happier with yourself!!
These stories that I write on this Page are for all of you to read and Hopefully understand your own lives and wake you up to your own "Spiritual Awakening".
Again...I want to Thank all of my Friends & Family I have met on the WEB & Internet.
