orgre999 ... now your talking my lanuage :wink: .... I have several stories to tell you but not sure which one to start with. So give me a bit of time to share with you ~ but I'm not so much sure I'll post them here, because the feed back I've come across in my life time of those who don't beleive in ghost or spirits can be curel to down right rude .... People put their foot in their mouth before speaking alot ..... especially those who have 'tunnel vision' and aren't willing to accept other peoples life experiences. These things I've experinced I didn't go looking for - they came to Me .... it all started when I was 5yr old ......... and has continued todate !
To heck with it ... I'll go ahead and tell you my First experience with Ghost.
When I was 5yr old, I would wake up in the middle of the night and see someone standing at my bedroom door. This went on for a long time and so finally I told my mother one day about what I was seeing at night ..... as a child I described him as a gingerbread man.... because the shape I was seeing you couldn't see the fingers but you could see the shape of a body --- from the head - shoulders- arms-legs, but I couldn't see fingers or eyes. But I knew it was a man. Because back in those days women didn't wear jeans, only dresses - so I knew it had to be a man standing there. And even as a child I knew I WASN'T dreaming ! ... this went on for ever it seemed like.
Then one night my younger brother was sick at bed time so Mother had me sleep with him - since I'm a light sleeper - so if brother got sicker I would wake up and go tell mother and dad that brother was throwing up or what ever. ... that night I was woken up by a man standing at the foot of brothers bed . I just laid there and looked at him, afraid to move - shortly he turned and waked into my sisters bedroom and I never saw him again that night. The next day I was telling mom about this man standing at the foot of the bed and my sister started crying, then she told mom that she too had seen a man standing in her bedroom and he turned and walked into brothers bedroom but he never returned to her bed side. ........... Acourse mom said that me must of been dreaming, but how could we .... we BOTH saw the same man ! ...........
We lived in that house for several years and this man continued to show up from time to time. After we moved from there and being several years older, Mom told us that she did some research on the history of that house and the bedroom that my sister and I shared nightly ... an older man had died in our bedroom. ......... Clearly it was the ghost of that Man .... he didn't realize that he was dead and hadn't crossed over to the light yet.
A couple of years ago I went back to the town I grew up in and drove where that home sat. With the intentions of visiting with who ever lived there and explain to them I grew up there and gently ask them if they had ever seen my ghost. But the house had been torn down. I felt bad for the ghost of that man, because with my knowledge now and the gifts my Creator gave me from birth I do beleive I could of helped that old man to cross over to the light.
Now before some of you decide to be judgemental and tell me I'm crazy or not religious .... You couldn't be FARTHER from the truth ... I have a deep and solid connection with God our Creator. I talk to him daily and he let's me know he's with me always. .... But my Life's path is different from those who think they must attend a church on weekly bases to be faithful. I grew up in the United Pentecostal church, I know and understand what the Bible says. So please do not come to me preaching. That's not what this thread is about. Life is just that ~ Life. It's different for everyone, that's why we're all special in our own rights.
If I felt safer sharing my lifes experiences on this thread I would do so freely, but time will tell. :roll: .... This is a thread I'll watch closesly, because as I said at the being ..... ogre999 your talking my lauguage now.
I told someone the other day .... if the truth be know (and if people weren't so judgemental) we're ALL alot alike. We've experienced the same things, just at different times in life and at different degrees. But life IS interesting and it should be able to share without being burned at the stake. :wink: .... (
