I’ve been going through something very difficult and traumatic. A few days ago I felt so lost and broken, anxious about my future, Ive been under a lot of stress and over past month it’s affected me physically. The other day I felt pretty shaky and was trying to think how to cope. I found myself saying to my dad as I drive “hold my hand dad, just hold my hand” I said it over and over and started to quickly calm down enough to where my anxiety was more manageable. The next night I was in a store with my daughter and I was again feeling anxious and physically weak, I wanted to have a decent nice time with her but felt so incredibly anxious and weak and in my mind said hold my hand dad... knowing it had calmed me the other day. A moment later a young dad with his little kid walked by and as they passed by I heard him say “hold my hand” to her.... it just felt like a confirmation yes he is- he’s aware..Sometimes you don’t need words you need someone to just be there , hold you or hold your hand . I was so surprised that right after that he walked by as on cue at the moment he walked by me and said loud for me to hear hold my hand. That was it- it wasn’t even mixed in with other things he said and nobody else was standing around talking so it seemed like just stood out more |
