Have you ever heard the saying bad things happen in three's? I whole-heartedly believe in this. I experienced something of this nature a few years ago. First, my boyfriend (who is again my current boyfriend) ended our relationship on the third anniversary of my grandmother's death. How nice, right? Then within the same week, my grandmother's cat that we inherited (not the grandma that passed away three years ago at that time, a different one) went missing. Our 80-something-year-old neighbor found him by his shed. He didn't want to break my heart, so he took him down to our pasture and buried him while crying the entire time. That in and of itself breaks my heart. Bob is a good man. And lastly, my aunt and uncle were in a car accident that sent them to the hospital while on vacation with my parents. That ALL happened within a week and a half.
Granted, my boyfriend and I are back together, and my aunt and uncle are both in good health now, but the fact those three things happened one right after the other baffles me. It really worries me now that my cat has passed away. I still find it strange that it happened the day after I left my parents' house from visiting them. That is way too strange to be completely coincidental. I feel as though something bigger was at work this weekend, and I am glad to say I am grateful that I got to see my beloved childhood pet one last time. But it makes me wonder, will two more unfortunate events happen soon? I hope not. We have too many things going on lately that we really cannot afford to have something bad happen. We are closing on our first house on Friday, and that alone is just scary.
I am trying not to let my negative thoughts get the best of me, though they often do. I need to develop a stronger mindset at times, especially during times like these. My fingers will be crossed for a while that everything falls into place as it should.
