I have seen ‘spirits’ or ‘ghosts’ all of my life & they are not limited to people, either. I have had visits from some of my very beloved pets after they passed on. One of my cats visits on a regular basis. If you have ever shared your life with a cat, then you know the way the bed feels when your cat jumps on it to sleep by you. You feel the ‘give’ when the cat lands, & then you feel the slight impressions of the cat’s feet as it walks up the bed to where you are laying, & then you feel the warmth of their body when they lie down beside you, & frequently feel the wiggling movements your cat makes when they decide to groom themselves before they finally settle down to sleep. You can take my word for it, this is the same thing their spirits do when they visit you after they have passed on. The first time it happened it was a trifle startling, but I have gotten used to it now & I just tell Tiger to find a comfortable spot & go to sleep already! He was a marvelously funny & loving cat when he was alive, & he really has not changed his ways. I was also very close to my youngest brother & when he died a few years ago very unexpectedly at far too young of an age, his spirit came & stayed with me for quite a long time – I know that he knew how much his death had hurt me. In my house, where ever I have my computer set up, I always have a mirror of some sort on the wall behind my desk & I have seen him many times come walking up the hall after I have turned the radio on (we loved the same kind of music). I never get more than just a glimpse of him, but he is unmistakable. He was tall & thin & had wildly curly hair, he was an extremely attractive man – he always lets me see him, but never for very long. I have even seen a newly deceased spirit as it has struggled to manifest itself as a ghost for the first time since passing away (this seems to be something they must practice & learn in order to do it easily). A very short time after the death of my last husband, he came to see me & I had the opportunity to see him trying to materialize. I am not sure just why he came to see me, possibly to explain why he had allowed someone to get close enough to him to be able to poison my dog. We had been separated when he died & he had been driving in from Oklahoma to tell me about the death of my dog (he had taken my dog to take care of him when I had ended up in the hospital) & he was killed in a car accident on his way here. As I watched, I could see a slightly luminous area at the foot of my bed & it was trying to form itself into its man shape, legs, body, arms, head, etc. It was very odd to see. You can get an idea of what it looked like if you think about what it would look like if you put vaseline on a piece of clear plastic wrap & then pressed another piece of plastic wrap on top of it. You could see thru it, but you could also see that there was something there. I watched it for quite some time before I turned on the light & when I turned on the light it just slid away into nothingness. He still comes back from time to time, to see me & to see my daughter (he was just crazy about her). He does things like turning on the lights in the middle of the night, turning off the radio if he does not like the music that is being played, things like that. My daughter’s previous boyfriend was evidently someone that he did not think was good enough for her & he gave the boyfriend a pretty bad time. He would frequently ride in his pick-up truck with him & he would keep turning off the radio if the boyfriend put the station on hard rock music. He used to like to catch the boyfriend home alone after my daughter had gone to work & do things like turning the lights off or on, or turning the tv off or on. He REALLY spooked her boyfriend. You should never doubt that spirits are real, they are. Mostly you are going to catch glimpses of them out of the corner of your eyes. Oddly enough, science says that the vision out of the corners of your eyes is clearer than the vision thru the front.
