Terrified of Ghosts. Always have been. Its the Catholic in me. Cant watch Ghostie things either. However, I managed many sheltered schemes in my job and it was quite common for elderly people to tell me that they had been "visited" by dead relatives and, frequently, they would die shortly afterwards. What always struck me was they were NOT afraid and often described these visits as being very normal and often during the daytime.. No storms of dark spooky incidents. More often than not they would wake up or go into a room and see whoever it was just sitting in a chair. None of this transparent stuff. The last person who told me of one of these incidents was a very elderly lady I was very fond of. In her case, her long dead Sister was sitting on the bed as she woke up. She was not frightened by said to her "You should not be here". Her Sister told her "I have just come to keep you company". She told me she was not afraid of her in life so wasnt in death. It used to terrify me although a couple of brushes with Cancer have made me realise that its probably comforting for people to think there is someone they love waiting for them. I always noticed it was the person they cared about most who appeared. I dont know whether it was actual Ghosts of whether they wished to see them. Much as I loved my Mum and Dad, I dont want to see them!!! My Husband says he would like to so he could tease them about Everton doing so well lately!
I do beleive that our loved ones will come to us , when it's our time ..
Thank you for this comforting post Partsky ..
I've got very close people who I know would come to me - - one in particular who, when we would discuss if there's an afterlife, would say that they would send some sort of sign - - - and I'm still waiting. :rolleyes:
Our house is the hub of our family for 5 generations, and two died at home here - so ours is the place where any ghosty family members would visit ! - - but not a sign of them :neutral:
I was particularly close to my grandmother- - no sign of her !
I can't say what happens after death, but I don't believe in visitations and suchlike. It's all in the imagination. There will always be a rational explaination for so called apparitions.
That's right Lindy.
Notice it's always "a sign" rather than...a conversation! Mystics play with people's gullibility, for their own profit, and reframe things that they know people want to hear. It's all in the imagination, and stories like these on this and other threads deserve their title as Woo.
Woo, or Woo woo - "refers to ideas considered irrational or based on extremely flimsy evidence or that appeal to mysterious occult forces or powers", from the Sceptic's dictionary.
