Ever asked someone you’ve lost for a spiritual sign they’re still there? Here’s how this submitter knew his wife was still with him …

I was really young when my wife died, only 36 years old. It was extremely painful to watch her become increasingly sick and weak from cancer. But I did my best to care for her and keep her comfortable. I was able to tell her I loved her one last time right before she died.
After she died, I asked her for a sign that she was still with me in some way.
Cardinals were my wife’s favorite bird. But we lived in an inner-city urban environment, so we never got to see them around our house.
About one week after she passed away, I glanced outside my window. Suddenly, I saw it: the most beautiful red cardinal perched right outside my window!
My jaw dropped because, as I mentioned, I’d never seen one anywhere in the area ever before.
Now I often see that red cardinal perched in that same spot, right out my front door window. It often appears when I’ve been thinking of my wife and asking for another sign of encouragement. Whenever I see that bright red cardinal, I don’t even question it. I feel an absolute certainty in my heart that she’s with me.
