We see things all the time which no longer exist. Everytime we look at the night sky. They are called stars.
We hear things all the time from people who are dead. Think about record albums and recording stars.
We see people all the time who are dead. Think pictures and movies.
We hear things out of thin air with special listening devices. They are called radios. There is a lag time between when things are broadcast and when we hear them, in effect we are listening to the past.
All these things were so far fetched before we knew about them that no one would have believed them. Is there some energy left over from our activities which we have yet to identify and understand?
Do these questions open our minds to "ghosts" and other paranormal events?
Food for thought
My mother passed in 2000, and I was with her in the hospital. I began to feel claustrophobic in the hospital room, and had to get out. I went down and smoked a cigarette outside and when I came back her breathing had changed and the nurse made it clear that this was going to be it.
She lived until morning, but it was clear to me she wasn't "there". As I lay my arm on her leg, holding her hand, I felt a small jolt of electricity hit my elbow. I told the nurse and she just looked at me strangely. I even began looking to see if there were any cords or anything that could of caused it, but the nurse just shook her head no. I put my arm back down, and felt it again immediately.
This was not like being "shocked" by someone, but like a small jolt of electricity. I always wondered about it. Like maybe it was her energy leaving...for what it's worth.(Boy, am I glad this is "anonymous"!)
