January

2024 was the year marked by health struggles. Feeling sick and tired for much of last year challenged my willpower to remain calm.

After my near-death experience, I spent January convalescing, propped up by pillows at my window.

With the light streaming in, even a Zoom call felt charged with a mystical energy that lifted my spirits.

Her voice deepened. I heard a masculine baritone, comforting and authoritative, much like a father asking, “Do you know where you are going?”

Shock rendered me speechless. Yet not responding felt disrespectful.

Unsure, I mumbled, “I don’t know…”, then paused and waited for a response, but there was none.

At that moment, I trusted my instincts and continued, “It doesn’t matter if I don’t know. You will be there to guide me.”

Once I spoke those words, the Fatherly presence was gone.
