My “Day of the Dead” Claw Prize 💀
I went to grab a fresh-n-ready pizza last night & while we were waiting, my hubby decided to try a carnival claw machine situated in the seating area. There were so many sweet, fuzzy & cute-looking animals that we were trying to grab. We kept trying & trying but the claw failed & dropped them all.
Lo & behold, we decided to keep going & we finally grabbed the least cuddliest – a zombie panda!
Leave it to me to attract dead people!
😂🐼😂🐼😂
We couldn't even see it at first. It was buried so deeply under all the other toys. Like wayyyy dowwwwn in the underrrrworrrrld… 👹👺
We giggled out loud. Out of all the sweetest & most innocent-looking fur babies that were in the claw cage, fate dealt us the ONLY one that looked like a demon!
What are the odds of that happening on “The Day of the Dead”??? 👻😱
While driving home, we drove through the dark dense fog & I thought how eerie & serene it was. And it dawned on me that I actually felt comforted in the presence of my new fur baby. I’ve never been one to feel uncomfortable with cemeteries or ghosts. To be honest, I always felt at peace around them. There has always been a deep connection with the supernatural or paranormal in my life & this actually deepened my faith in the unseen forces of that world.
They say on this special holiday in Mexico (similar to Halloween), that people light candles for their deceased ones to come out & celebrate with the living for that day. There is joy & laughing & festivities. So basically, I invoked my dead loved ones & they decided to give me a sign in a funny & playful way. Like a sarcastic joke!
“I SEE DEAD PEOPLE!” 😆
Most orthodox belief systems tend to see dead people as demonic or evil. I don't. I see them as souls that have passed into another realm & are hovering & waiting to communicate with others who can understand.
Of course, I will welcome my new stuffed animal with open arms & treat him the same as my other ones. He's not your average carnival toy but it looks like he found the perfect family.
Spirits just want to be seen & heard. Sometimes we need to listen to them & bring them into the light… 💛
They have important things to tell us after all, don't they?
