In my early stages as an empath, I wasn’t fully aware of my gift of clairvoyance. I had already started with doing readings – as part of practice – but I was a beginner on my path. Let’s say I wasn’t too conscious of it. Yet, when one of my friends got pregnant, it opened my eyes even more.

Romy

When my then girlfriend and I were still in a relationship, we sometimes fantasized about having kids. And we already had some names in mind: I liked Romy, she liked Amber more, and we both liked Milan. So we were kinda ‘ready’, just in case we wanted to go for it; becoming parents of our future children.

For some strange reason my idea of naming my future kids as mentioned before, suddenly changed. Just out of the blue I started to be obsessed with the name ‘Sunshine’. And when I mentioned it to my then girlfriend, this name started to grow on her as well. In fact, when she decided to start her own spiritual practise, she was truly inspired by this name. So she called it something like ‘Sunshine’s Wisdom’. And needless to say, I liked the name as well.

Happy

In the meantime one of my best friends had gotten pregnant with her second child, and we were all excited for her. I remember how happy she was with this pregnancy, and how she dealt with the whole situation, while having her first born as well – even more challenging, as far as I can say just being an uncle.

So when she gave birth to her baby girl, she let me know that they had called her ‘Sunshine’ (for the sake of privacy I changed the actual name). And I was shocked. Sunshine, the name we suddenly were obsessed with. Like my friend had been on the same wavelength and got excited about the same name. But later it came to my mind that it must have been the other way around: my friend was ‘obsessed’ with this name, because she had this name in mind for her little baby girl. And I simply took notice of it.

Explore The World

One more thing about this charming event. When Sunshine was a couple of months old, my then girlfriend and I visited my friend and her family. And her eldest son got so inspired to explore the world, that he was lost for a couple of minutes. His parents panicked a bit, of course, and started to look for him around the house. And for practical reasons my friend put Sunshine in my arms, so that they could look for their son freely.

So there I stood with this little baby girl, holding her, while her parents were looking for her brother. Fortunately she was quiet, and totally at ease. And pretty soon they all came back with her ‘lost’ brother, who had just decided to check the area around the house. Hence, we were all relieved.

But this odd event did cause that I unexpectedly spent some time with my friend’s little girl, holding her in my arms. So sometimes – as a highly sensitive person – it crosses my mind: was it just a coincidence, or was there more going on? Maybe she was just communicating with me at a certain level, being highly sensitive herself, so my friend found out later in her daughter’s life. Maybe sending me some of Sunshine’s wisdom. Who knows?

High Sensitivity

Because of her high sensitivity it made me even more wonder: did I pick up her name energetically from her mom? Or did she just reach out to me, lying in her mom’s belly, while I was with her mom, revealing her very own name?

Well, I don’t know Sunshine very well, but I do think that her name suits her well. I mean, the world we are living in right now, needs so much more light. And who else than highly sensitive people like Sunshine could be part of that…
