It’s been four years since my mother passed away, and yet, she feels so close in moments when I least expect it. She left this world at 4:44pm, a time that has since become more than just a memory of loss. I started noticing the number 444 & 4444 appearing everywhere, like a gentle nudge from the universe- or maybe something more. Whether it’s the time on the clock, a license plate, or a random receipt, that number keeps finding its way into my life.

My mother always believed in ghosts. Growing up, her stories and beliefs planted the seed of curiosity in me, but since her passing, that curiosity has grown into something much deeper. I find myself wondering if these signs are more than coincidences- if they’re messages from her. Maybe she’s reaching out to tell me she’s still with me, watching over me.
I’m not sure what she would say if she could speak to me now. Would she tell me she’s proud, that she’s still around, guiding me in ways I can’t fully understand? I think about that a lot, especially when I encounter the signs I’ve started to search for. Songs, certain birds, a favorite symbol of hers, seem to appear at just the right moments. Or maybe it’s the quiet feeling of peace that comes when I’m missing her the most.

The number 4444 is said to be an angel number, symbolizing protection and guidance from loved ones who have passed. I like to think my mom is communicating with me, reminding me that she’s still here, helping me navigate life in her own special way. Whether through signs from the universe or something more spiritual, my search for her connection continues.
I don’t know if I’ll ever truly understand the meaning behind these messages, but I’m open to the mystery. If nothing else, I know she’s out there, letting me know I’m not alone.
I love you mom, forever and always- xoxo
