I was in a dressing room today trying something on and my mind was only on my shopping excursion at the moment. Out of nowhere, I heard a distant shofar blast!! I literally froze!  My heart racing, I hunched down to the floor to worship in the changing room because my heart was about to burst with excitement. After about a minute, I stood up again and began to wonder if maybe I was just hearing things, that my mind was playing tricks on me because it seemed so out of the ordinary! Slowly, I began to continue with what I was doing while listening for any strange sounds that might have explained it away.  A few minutes later, I heard it again! Like it was far away but in my head. I almost asked "did anyone else just hear that?!!" I was giddy and worshiped God all the way home.

When I got home, I googled to see if other people had heard a shofar before and found several entries online over the past few years. After listening to some youtubes of shofars, I identified the sound I heard as the Shevarim. Look it up on youtube to see what it sounded like. I believe it's a warning? My mother suggested my ears were ringing. I thought that was pretty funny because I know the difference between ringing ears and trumpet sounds.

Any thoughts?
