This is what happened to me a little while ago. I was on my iPad looking at my music collection. My thought was, I want to listen to a song about “us” – as in me and Prince as twin flames. So I scrolled down and suddenly I noticed a blank white space in my music collection. I noticed that the icon for the Prince’s Batman soundtrack had migrated mysteriously. It was floating on top of  The Rainbow Children album. I was so confused. I tried to see if for whatever reason, the new iOS update allows you drag the album icons or something. No. It was impossible. I scrolled up and scrolled back down, and the Batman icon went back to its normal position. Immediately after that, I regretted not taking a screen shot of it. The one song I had from the Batman soundtrack was Scandalous. Prince later told me that the song encapsulated everything he wanted to say to me.

Just to show you what I mean, this is a replica of what I saw on my iPad screen.

The next day, I told my very psychic friend about what happened. I said that I was wishing Prince would do it again so that I could get a photo of it. She asked me if it was a sign for anything. And I told her what I was thinking at the time. She replied, “Prince just jokingly told me ‘Get over yourself, Miss Photographer.’ He did it as a romantic gesture, not so you could record it!” And if that wasn’t funny enough, I went over to my Instagram after that conversation ended and there on my feed, a fan had posted a pic of Prince with a camera held up to his face.

I could to help but smile for the while day after that.

Prince is just as funny and romantic now as he was in life. The thing is, when you go to the other side, you are pretty much the same person, carrying over everything you were as a person. So you better act and be the person you want to be while you’re alive because that’s the only thing you get to take with you.
