This took place on Sunday the 11th of January at roughly 12:30 PM. I was laying in bed with my dog watching a movie while my boyfriend was away at work. He leaves early in the morning so I usually roll over and lay on his side and invite my dog up to sleep on my side.
Out of nowhere flew the brightest and whitest 'shooting star' - to what I can describe it as - fly above my bed going toward the headboard on the other side of me. When it appeared I saw it in my peripheral for about a second and then I looked straight at it then it started to fade like how you'd see a shooting star.
After it vanished, I was overcome with the strongest sense of happiness that I smiled a huge grin.
I tried to process what had just happened and thought to myself that it was either a super weird and fast bug, a reflection or it was my first orb. I investigated to see if I could find the bug or reflection that I thought it was, only to find nothing. How could a bug or reflection give me such an amazing feeling though? It got me confused.
When my boyfriend came home from work, I told him about what I had seen. The first thing he said was "Michael." Michael is my boyfriend's brother who passed away in February last year. Read 'His Spirit Lives On' for a better understanding. I honestly didn't think about the orb being him but it made sense as the first anniversary of his death is about a month away.
Maybe he's trying to let me know that he's still here, watching over. This also happened during the time that the house they lived in across from me was being bulldozed.
I don't know if this is related but it is quite odd opposed to seeing the orb. About 4 days after I saw this orb, we had to take my boyfriend's mum to hospital because she has been extremely ill. She's been ill ever since Michael passed but she just recently went to the doctor to see what is wrong with her. Sadly, she has been diagnosed with cancer and doctors have found many other problems as well.
Was the orb maybe some kind of warning/message or did it appear just to say that he's still here? Maybe both.
