dear somewhat,

To be certain is  to know things   beyond a shadow of a doubt.

It  would be lovely if life allowed us this bit of luxury, but that aint going to happen it seems.

This  is   why the age old religious struggle  will never end..some of us   just don’t know thesebible teachings  to  be   an  absolute fact…so   we go along…hoping   someone hears our prayers…just that act alone  helps us  each day…admitting  we are not infallible [sure] of any of it…but open to miracles.

Now I said   I definitely  do  not believe in ‘ghosts….but  ANGELS?  they   walk among us each day, I speak from years of experience.  It seems…they  just walk up and say something  you need to hear…and walk on.

If you doubt this   you are closed up  to the inexplicable laws of  nature…the astonishing goodness that surrounds us each day..kate

dear kate,

You are so right, my loved ones that have passed are on my mind at some point almost everyday. This keeps them alive in my heart & in my memories. Memories to me are so precious! To me they are one of the most valuable things on this earth! Thank you for helping ease my uncertainty!

somewhat less than uncertain

Uncertain,

I have never seen a ghost either…but there are so many things I have not [personally] experienced in this life, only a fool would be certain.

What exactly is a ghost anyway, is it the bogey-man?   a bit too spooky and supernatural  for me to spend time on.

I can say with some certanty, that when we die  it is the brain that dies.The 1300 grams of gray matter in our heads are where we store memory and learning.

The difference between Life and Death is in that  LIFE  we have the potential to create, in DEATH the potential to create is passed on to a receptive brain [one that lives]  through their  memory of the deceased.

So as long as we are REMEMBERED we continue to have a physical effect on other people’s brains, so  that we are not technically [or at least fully]  dead, until all memory of us dies.

As an aside  while living we are often compared to ‘computers’ … Human hardware is the Body, and the Software = the wiring  of  the brain.

Our brains are the sole determinate of our identity..

Do you find this helpful Uncertain?

From personal experience  the loved ones that have passed  on before me, are alive and well in my  heart and mind.

love katey

KATE,

You touched on a point here that I have always had a fear about. When you hear these stories of people who have had near death experiences and they claim they saw a white light or a loved one… is this just your body/brain creating a safe place for you, kind of like when you are sick & your immune system kicks in? Or are these people really experiencing something?? I guess we will never know until it’s our turn to find out. The only thing that makes me believe that there could be life after death is ghosts. But then again I have never seen one myself so who am I to say they truly exist either. Its all comes down to faith I guess and I have plenty of that! So here’s to hopeful thinking!
