What Do You Think?

After a loved one dies, some think they see things or hear things that might be there loved one. I wonder if is real or just our imagination. What do you think?

When my Father passed away, I was the only one staying in his house. I walked into his bedroom and on top of his bed was a prayer card that was his Fathers. It wasn't there earlier.

About 2 weeks later, I walked into a store and the music was playing my Fathers favorite song. "Come on Eileen." That same night I was at a red light, the car in front of me had a car full of teenagers, they had the music loud and I could here them all singing along. I rolled my window down and it was, "Come on Eileen."
This was very strange because it is a older song and you just don't hear it much anymore.

Before going to bed, I got a treat out of the closet and gave it to my dog. I closed the closet door and we went to bed.
In the morning all the dogs treats were on the floor in the hallway and the closet still closed.

I don't know if it was my imagination or if it really was my Father, I like to think it was.

I would like to know what you think, of if you ever experienced anything like this?
THE END!

I hope there is more. Me, grandfather and father plan to meet at the big Pow Wow in heaven. A hard question. We would need a pot of coffee and a long conversation. Always more questions than answers. . Thank you Donna for sharing the amazing story and I will return later and read more.

Sorry if you’re still missing your dad a lot. I love the way you present the pieces of this puzzle without making an argument, just laying things out to create their own unspoken argument. My favorite detail is the one about the song. When I took my all-time favorite dog Barley in to be put down at the end of her life, I came away crying so hard I could barely drive. But I cried even harder when I heard Josh Groban sing “To Where You Are” on the car radio (a song so fitting for missing a loved one to death). To me it’s not so much about “ghosts” as just that the spirit of a loved one will hang around as long as needed!?!?! *sigh!* Fondly, Margie

That was beautiful Margie. I can't imagine how hard that was for you, I am going to have to face that, hopefully not to soon, but it is coming. Thank you for sharing that.

We are convinced we have a ghost in our house. Objects get moved without us touching them. Doors slam. We hear bumps in the night. Enough to wake us. Maybe we've upset someone who's died?

[Donna]

Maybe someone just wants you to know that they are there?

I do think the afterlife looks out for you. A month or so ago. My mother in law past. But I found out via my partner her son. Not that long ago. Maybe a few weeks after before she actually past way. That She said she woke in the night. A few weeks before she past And saw someone at the end of her bed. And she felt calm and relax. And knew everything would be okay. She was not scared. It was like her husband who past 20 odd years before was coming to see her. And was telling her everything was okay. Crazy I know it sounds. But true.

[Donna]

Yes, I do believe you! Thank you for the nice review.

This phenomenon has been documented in every country and every age, so I'm pleased you have brought it up for discussion Donna. Especially as it is a recurrent experience for the leading character in my latest book!

[Donna]

Well, I look forward to reading your book. Thank you for your review.

I think this experience of yours might not be all that uncommon of a thing. Although I still "talk" to my deceased mother, father, brother, and close friends, I never receive any signs or replies. Many do, and I've heard their convincing stories. You are probably one of those who is just more in touch with the spirit world.

[Donna]

I don't know why some do and some don't. I guess its a mystery we will not know until its our turn. Thanks for sharing that.

My wife wakes up in the middle of the night and swears blind that her father is by our bed, he'd been gone 21 years. I personally think it's hog wash and that sometimes folk miss a loved one so much the mind plays tricks
Morning Donna, hope you are well.

[Donna]

Or maybe she is just dreaming, who knows. Thank you for your review.

[Gee]

[wordman]

my brother in law came back and talked to my daughter twice

[Donna]

What did he tell her?

[wordman]

the first time he told her he was scared and was hiding,,the second time he told her he wasn`t scared any more and he guessed he was in heaven and it was beautiful,,,he was gay,i think he was just out side of heaven for a few days

[Donna]

That is amazing! I got the the chills reading that. Thank you for sharing that.

[wordman]

you must be into this supernatural stuff

[Donna]

No I'm not, I just hope its real.

[wordman]

[Stella Armour]

my father passed away 45 years ago, and i still feel his presence, and smell his pipe tobacco; not as much as i used to but certainly he is not too far away.I still say "goodnight" to his photograph.

[Donna]

That is so wonderful to hear. I do believe its real! Thank you for sharing this!

[Stella Armour]

i do believe that you have to open yourself to receive the essence of other people , not everyone can do that.

[Abby]

[Donna]
