Everyone has their own opinion on things, and what one believes the other might not. Although this is going off topic. Something created us, because we just didn't come from dirt...

Not sure you will be able to "get rid" of them with the sage. The sage is meant to "level" the spirits. To help them to be able to function "with" you instead of "against" you. Remember they were there first .

I found small toys when I moved into the home I'm living in now. I always use sage when I move, and say grace to have God help me and any spirits co-exhist. I cleaned up the toys and placed them in a spot where they would be safe. I have just recently found out that there was a girl that lived here who died from an overdose of drugs. It made me feel very sad. I say prayers for her now and then, hoping that her spirit will be guided in the right direction.

The dead know nothing.

Only those who live on in your mind, can answer.

Well, so far so good. The house is much quieter; my phones are working again, my stereo has stopped shutting itself off, and I am able to sleep better. However; only time will tell.

to answer the original question...yes.

I did get a photo of a spirit. No, it wasn't a dark and menacing figure. She appeared more like a lady in white with blue robes. She was very faint and standing next to a door and looking down at a young girl who was peering into the abandoned store.
The odd thing was, when I snapped the shot .... there was nothing there in that spot. She showed up after the film was developed.

Newsflash: We did.

I have seen /Talked to brain dead people , does that count?

I have done hair and make-up for the deceased.

Me too!!

& I dont say no,if they wish too,but usually they dont.

I talk to my dad sometimes, and he did come to me the night after he died to tell me he would be watching over my daughter


other than that,,I havent been receptive to any 'spirits'

This is very sad by many means

sad that he died? its a natural part of our journey on earth

sad that he visited me? I dont see why it would be...

Though natural part,everyone feels sad for departure,that sadness too is natural like demise.

I felt sad for he visited you,as it means that he died with some incomplete desires in mind.

( Sorry If I'm being much frank & personal)

no, I am not one to retain negative emotions about much of anything in my past. ITs fine.

My father and mother were always caring, always interested in the well being of their kids.

I feel his visit wasnt about him at all, but to comfort me as I was pregnant at the time and very distraught(which can actually cause physical risk to a pregnancy)

LOL, YA RIIIIIIIGHT!

I have sworn I worked with the dead but then at quitting time of course they came to life again.

All kidding aside I have felt like sometimes the dead have talked ot me or others in various situations. Having done Hospice work you often get the feeling that the two worlds are not so seperate.

As are many "absolute truths" we think we have sometimes it is just understanding we have not all come to know fully.

Like concepts of creation or death. In a universe so vast we can not truely comprehend it. Who is to say what the concept of time is to those who are in charge.

Since dirt is in a very "simple" form life maybe we all did start from it and continue in it in a way we just don't find all that flattering but might in fact tie both sides of the arguement together.

Give them some sage to smoke
