There Are Signs Everywhere...

    So, just wondering... There's been alot of ironic signs all over the place for me. I'd go into more detail, but right now, I just wanted to ask you guys something. Do you believe in 'signs'. Truthfully, I never did and things just happen, I have a choice and no sign is going to tell me to change it ... Well that was my outlook, but I really have been seeing signs all over the place. All of the relating to a problem I have, and really need help with, but I have only gained up the courage to ask God. And in all honesty, I don't know if I believe in God as much to actually think like this... Well anyway, there's alot of things I don't know anymore - I'm really lost at the moment for everything... Which is why I'm wondering if these 'signs' would help me figure it out... Anyone a believer?

    When you're in love you hear happy songs and see happy things; alternatively, when we lose someone the sad songs drown us and we see negative signs everywhere - the same with every problem we encounter - things seem to reinforce it. don't worry it's natural to tune into the moment, if you follow my drift.

    I agree with signs, even if you can't really see them, you can hear or feel them. For instance... this was a while back, so don't make fun of my kid- like ways. I was upset with my two good friends when they did not invite me over. I was getting pissed and in the end I didn't get invited. The next morning morning I found out they got busted for drinking. In a way I see not going, or them not inviting me as a sign. A sign to show that I wasn't ment to get in trouble and be there..

    I have had a lot more, just can't think of any others

    Well, responding to what is written above, I can say that you provide a good point. However, the situation I'm in is a little bit different. The sign's I'm seeing are telling me to do something, and change something Very Very drastically... And I don't want to. I'm not ready to and really am opposed to it. But at the same time, it makes so much sense, and if this is my 'warning' then.. I should pay attention to it, shouldn't I?...
    Well, thankyou very much for your feedback on the whole thing, I really appreciate it, and will definately keep it in my mind...
    Is there anyone out there that doesn't believe in it?
    Or maybe some more thoughts from the people that do... (I'm just curious to see the majority of thinking)

    I think that we see signs or omens when we are uncertain and looking for guidance, they would have been there all the time, but we would not have seen them as anything significant. Whether you beleive them or not is up to you, but if they are telling you to do someting you know is wrong, then I would be very careful of doing what you feel they are saying.
    I see signs in everything, but that doesn't mean they should replace your judgment, or the advice of others.
    No one can tell you whether to trust them or not, that is up to you, and it depends on the situation...
    If you want my honest opinion, it's that you shouldn't make any life-changing decisions based on what you percieve to be a sign, there is always the possibility you have judged it wrong...

    I believe in signs. Without signs we would not be able to live in this world? How do you think we would function if there were no signs of attraction between people? if there were no signs of danger? there are signs everywhere. I do believe in god and I do believe everything happens for a reason.. signs are there and we do not always seem them but they're there.. guiding us or warning us or sometimes neither.. theyre just there..

    if you REALLY look at it..
    Human existance in itself is a sign..

    Well, these are some great thoughts and I thank all of you for taking your time to put them up. So far though, I have to say Violet has said exactly what I was thinking at first, and I still think that... And although, what beautiful disaster said caused me to think alot more about it, I do wonder why you think human existance is a sign within itself... I can go forever about how humans are random unnecissary creatures - but I won't :P.

    Everyone will have a different point of view on human existance..
    i myself think it is a sign.. what would this world be without human existance?
    what about pain..love..emotions..feelings.. without human existance we would have those things.

    i believe god created humans as imperfect creatures so that we actually have a purpose in life..

    we spend a lifetime trying to perfect ourseleves and our lives and trying to be happy just to die and be sent somewhere else..?
    It's like were being transfered from lifetime to lifetime.. so death isnt really death its birth.. into another lifetime..

    well thats my point of view.

    Yeah, there are signs. Because you want there to be signs. You're just imitating the enviroment & people around you. What are the signs asking you to do? If you really believe that human existence is unnecessary, I can already start jumping to conclusions. and my first reaction is...Don't listen to them. Get therapy. Maybe drugs. Legal, taxable, pharmaceutical drugs.

    I'm pretty sure I see signs. The problem is, I can't decipher them. There's this guy I dated for awhile (ok, he was my first love) and I tried to avoid him for years.

    (you've read it, so I've deleted the details)

    I don't know if it's God or some other divine force, or if I'm just reading way too much into it. It worries me because if it IS God then, what does he want me to do? Or if I'm just imagining things, does it mean that I'm still hung up on him 2 years later and am making up excuses in my head to keep thinking about him?

    Anyway, that's just my take on the 'signs' I see. Hopefully, you'll have better luck with your hidden messages.

    Well, hearing your story, my signs are a the exact opposite... I won't get into it, I just wanted to let you know that I can decipher mine, I just don't want to... So thankyou for your luck with that. I wish you luck to clear up yours aswell.
    As for this signs thing, I'm glad to see so many people notice this aswell, and I'm not just being rediculous. However, I do think that I'm going to listen to myself on this one. My head and my choices are the things I need to figure out my life... Right? Perhaps?...Maybe? *sigh*. Only time will tell. Thanks all.

    lol sorry. I know how annoying it is when people say stuff and not actually tell you. Or when they brag 'I know something you don't know' and then say 'but I can't tell you'. Gawd! lol who would do that?? But umm, I'm sorry, I'm not into sharing - but I will stop tempting you with bits. And hehehe, thanks for the humour in the above post :P.

    Well, this wasn't quite a sign; but I can take it as one... Today was the weirdest day in the world, I went to Nelson (a bigger community just out of the small town that I live in) to shop for things I needed for school. And I swear half the people I saw, were talking to people not around them. Or talking to me, without any voice.
    I know, it sounds like a horror movie, but it did for me too. I saw one ladie eating her lunch, with two extra chairs put at the table and set up like there were people sitting there - but there wasn't anyone there. And every few minutes she'd stop eating to look at one or both of the chairs and silently whisper words and ask questions... And another guy, was standing having a smoke by the corner, and he looked at me and his lips were moving to words. I could only read a few words, and I swear I saw the word 'help' as one of them. I'm so weirded out right now... What the heck just happened?
