Messages

Once in a while I receive what I call "messages". They are usually a one sentence statement. I could rationalize it as my subconsciousness coming to the front or I could call it a message from God. This is something I always debated with myself...is it really God or is it just me thinking about an issue so much that my brain still works on it subconsciously and finally puff a one sentence pops into my head. Regardless of what it is...they are usually profound and they some times (believe it or not) are prophetic. I would prefer it to be the later, though. Well this blog has been dedicated to my dad so most of the themes that I write usually involve him. One of the "messages" I received was "My dad gave me something" I mention this to my wife and her immediately responded was..."it was Finn" You see Finn was born after my dad died and he always wanted me to have a boy (I may have mentioned this in a previous post). We were giving it one more try and I indicated that this would be the last child no matter what sex the baby was. I even got "the operation" before I even knew what we were going to have. Finn was born and he does so many little traits that my dad use to do. My Dad would had been very proud of Finn (although he would be proud of all his grand kids) but Finn in my father's eyes is the heir to the O'Neil Throne.
