If you have a mother, don't hesitate to keep taking care of her by loving and obeying her always. Mothers are the best forever. How I wish my mom was still alive. I wouldn't believe if I was told I would be motherless. We were friends, we talk, gist and many times, I love being around her to tell her what I was going through.
She taught me how to use the sanitary pad for the first time. She gave me everything I needed in school. She is a woman with hundred Jobs. Why do I say that? She never gets tired. She was a trader, she delivers bread to customers through my Dad's Car, she was an agent dealing with lands, she was a bricklayer, all kinds of menial Jobs like that just to feed us.
She never leaves us alone as she would do everything to cater for her children. She was always sick too. Who won't be sick engaging in those hard works?
But with all that, she tells us stories of herself and stories she experiences with her eyes. Two of the stories she told me that I will never forget are these;
TRUE LIFE STORY OF REINCARNATION
Do you believe in reincarnation? This is a rebirth of a soul. In some tribes especially the Yorubas, we believe in reincarnation which we call "AKUDAYA" in our language. When someone dies and it isn't his or her time, they start to wander or lives somewhere else where people won't notice them.
This man was a mechanic and just got married to his wife. He went out for his daily business and was busy repairing a bus when he was crushed by a trailer coming. He died instantly. He went home to his wife and was happy with her. He stood by her. The wife didn't know her husband has come to appear to her that day.
She didn't notice anything and meanwhile, those working with him that knew what happened where scared to inform his wife of the incidence seeing that they just got married.
They were still thinking of what to do until they went to meet the guy's parent and explained everything that happened. They cried but nothing could be done.
The incidence happened on a Thursday and the following Monday, the guy didn't go to work. His wife was asking him why he wasn't going to work. He lied that he wasn't feeling fine.
After some hours, the parents came. The guy was in the bedroom when he got a sign that his parents are here to tell his wife what happened. They knocked the door and he told his wife to go and answer them.
At that time, the man had disappeared. The wife welcomed them warmly and was surprised to see her mother - in-law and others from the husband's workplace early that morning and with a sad face.
Mummy, what happened? Why are you all here? The wife was still shocked and then she said she is coming, she want to go and call her husband. The mother called her back and told her to sit down.
They had to explain everything and even showed her the picture of the incidence. Still shocked, she ran inside but couldn't find her husband. That was when it dawned on her that her husband only came to show his face to her before going.
I have always believed that people reincarnate and some children may come in form of someone who has died in the family.
Let's take for instance, a man who had lived a good life and suddenly death took him and at that time, someone in the family was pregnant then. The man would be reborn through the child and when he starts to behave, they will know it was the man who came to life through him.
And most times, if it is someone who wants to come and revenge of his or her death, they will be reborn and using the baby's image, they take revenge.
HER OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
My mom also told me this personal story of herself too. Her own grandmother died and because she was the one close to the grandma, she came to reveal herself to my mom.
She said she was inside this evening and suddenly the air was disturbing everywhere in the home. Her plates on the shelf were thrown down by the breeze. Curtains were dancing and the door was cracking. She didn't understand at first until the picture of her grandmother she hanged on the wall fell down and broke. Suddenly, she knew something has happened.
A call came in from her sister that grandma was dead. That was when she knew she came to reveal herself.
I also knew about this from her that when someone is dead, he or she would reveal him or herself to the one they are close to. Have you ever experienced this before?
My Dad's friend also confirmed this one-day that there was a small boy in his neighborhood. He likes this boy and took him as his son. The boy also calls him "Dad". The boy died and it pained this man
He was sitting outside one night when the boy appeared to him, it was only him that could see him that time. The boy held his hand and was telling my Dad's friend to come with him. Thank God he quickly snatched his hand from the boy's hand. If he had followed the boy, he would have been dead.
Things are happening and these are just the stories I can say for now. More stories my mom told me about but I remembered these particular ones.
I hope you enjoyed reading them?
Do you also believe in Reincarnation?
What can you say about them? I would want to learn from you in the comment section.
Thanks for Reading
There's a part of me that believes in reincarnation. I saw a Facebook post where it says that her dog who died just reincarnated as her baby. They believe that it was their first baby which is the dog because of the mark on his hand, and the baby also has the same mark on his hand.
