Completely creepy true story!

Ok I'm definitely more than a little freaked out right now! For the past few days I haven't been able to find my engagement ring but the wedding band was on my dresser (I usually only wear the set when I go out) sick about it searched the house high and low for the last couple of days with no luck:( I figured it must have fallen off.

Here is the creepy part.....I went to bed about three hours ago, and woke up with a very vivid dream. My aunt (who passed away two years ago) was telling me "don't stress jen, Anthony says it's at the bottom of the bag". Now who is Anthony....I don't know but I start to think what the heck bag is she talking about?! I walk onto the deck and realize its garbage day tomorrow, so yup....started digging through the trash. Sure enough, at the bottom of the second garbage bag was my ring:).

Weird hey?! I thought so but am super happy that I found the ring!! Just a little freaked out and now can't sleep even though it's 1:30 am!

Ps
I promise I'm not crazy!

Wow!

I'm so glad you found your ring.

And...

I don't think you are crazy...

I've had stuff like that happen before.

One time, I had the horrible feeling that my dad was going to have a heart attack the next day!! I was crying hysterically and called everyone I knew who would pray. I know some of them probably thought I was off my rocker. (I live hours away from my parents.)

Then, next day I get a call from my mom that Dad had passed out as he went off the porch walking to his work truck. Ambulance had to come and get him. It had to do with his heart and blood pressure. I truly believe to this day that God told me and that the prayers of my friends and loved ones saved my dad.

lovelyiskey · September 2011

that's really amazing. I don't think it's creepy at all

your aunt looks out for you- that's a wonderful lucky thing.

I know your not crazy...could have been your sub concious (sp?) telling you where you last remembered seeing it? Good thing you found it though!

My dad had a dream one night that he was talking to a woman and a little girl, and suddenly everything tilted and felt heavy. The little girl told him he had to wake up because he was having a stroke. He woke up and called a friend and went to the hospital and sure enough, his symptoms were indicating a stroke that might have happened if he hadn't gotten to the hospital fast enough. He wasn't taking his blood pressure meds when it happened.

Not creepy at all! My Dad and I live on opposite sides of the world but often share dreams. Spooky huh? We both knew at he same time that my Grandmother had died, for example. I think some people are just more in tune than others. Great that you found your ring!

Saw this recently explaining the maths behind precognition.

Lucky, strange and cool about the ring though.

Not creepy at all. The communion of saints were on your side! Anthony is the patron saint who is known to help those who have lost something. Catholics commonly say this prayer..."Tony, Tony, turn around. Somethings lost and can't be found."

Not sure it this bit of trivia is "too religious" for the new moderators.

So glad that you found your ring!

I was just getting ready to post that St. Anthony is the patron saint of lost/stolen articles. Not creepy at all, one time I had lost my checkbook for almost 3 weeks. Was completely stressed about it. One afternoon while searching in tears I just sat down on the couch looked up and said "Okay God, I could really use some help here..." immediately an image flashed into my mind of where it was...in a tote bag in the garage. Sure enough I found it seconds later!

My dad has said that when he was young he used to have "visions". He'd sometimes know what was about to happen. My father is brilliant, and a freak for logic, so he figured his mind would calculate possibilites in the background and when something highly likely and significant was about to happen, it'd throw it into his concious mind. He found this rather disturbing and it stopped when he was in his 20s, I think. But I think what happened to you was something like that. Your mind was working through this in your subconcious and when it figured it out it threw it into your dream to bring it to your concious mind. The mind is a cool and weird thing!

Crap, my workstation does not have speakers, I must watch this when I get home.

This is not creepy at all. It is just to show us that "God works in mysterious ways" He comes through when we need him. I am so glad that God helped you find your ring.

As someone else said, St. Anthony is the Patron Saint of Lost Items (my mom was a Catholic school girl and she always tells me who to ask for help in every situation...LOL).

Glad you found your ring, and your story gave me goosebumps!

maab_connor · September 2011

it's awesome that your aunt was able to tell you where the ring was. those we love may go on ahead, but they still visit. and i'm glad she told you the day BEFORE trash day.

Wow! I do that ALL the time when I lose things! Except I was taught "Dear St. Anthony please come 'round; something's lost & can't be found." And 99% of the time, it works.

No idea that St. Anthony was even a saint (Im the least religious person ever...more spirtual than anything), and that he's a saint of lost articles is pretty cool! Wow!

Its definitely weird how the mind works...and whether or not it was a visit from my aunt from the beyond or my subconscious mind at work....its pretty cool both ways:)

Im still sort of in shock that I actually found the ring at the bottom of a completely filled garbage bag (good thing the neighbors weren't out, because then I really would have looked nutso going through the garbage at 1:00 am lol). It was literally at the very bottom of the bag in a pile of coffee grounds.
