Thread Name: Chatting With The Deceased? Do You?
Subject: RE: Chatting With The Deceased? Do You?
Wow back again Yes the wall in D.C. !!! I was a Scout master and went in to the Army on the same day with my first eagle scout, 1953 Korea, He ended up Airborne and I was a medic stationed in D.C. at Walter Reed Hosp. Years later both families went on a trip to D.C. and part of the tour was to "The Wall" at night. What feelings the wall brings up 2 grown ex G.I.'s standing there blubbering in each others arms. Yes their spirits are there. This thread really has been a catharsis for many of us The interesting thing there have been no people humbuging us. God Bless All. I wonder what our ages are. Me 71. When I was a callow youth and knew everything I didnt believe any of this. But now with all these happenings boy do I believe. Years ago I was teaching with a woman of Irish extraction who was telling me about "THe changlings" in Irish lore. She made an interesting statement or thought. In early times people believed in contact with the dead, ghosts, etc.they needed that ability to survive. now we call it superstitions. but now the more civilized?? we have become we have lost that ability .to communicate with them. Any comments???? Allan
