Heh, my mother, like the rest of our family are no strangers to the so called "paranormal" Her grandfather was a medium who stirred up a lot of activity in his own house to the point that, her mother would not let the children go visit him and his wife left him because, the house to dangerous. My grandma having grown up in that house before it got out of hand, experienced a lot of stuff so they all put up with it until it could not be ignored. That being said, me and my siblings have all had our encounters ourselves but, nothing negative and none of us went "looking for any of it" Grandma would of thumped us if we even tried, just happened every once in a while. Sis and I sitting in the living room and suddenly a "see through adult male" walked right between us and into the wall. Stuff like that on occasion. We do not fear it, know it all exists just that we as humans hardly ever get glimpses of it, knowing another existence past that of the physical one though, is enough to believe in a higher power and in the continued existence of the soul after death. Shwoo, anyway, being a dumb human with my limited knowledge beyond knowing what I have seen, have no idea how it works once the body dies, rather you are whisked away to the next stage of your existence(destination based off of what you did while in your physical) or if you stay around for a bit, for all I knew, mom was sitting at the table with us rolling her eyes at are conversation while her body was still in the room. (creepy thought but, would not put it past her. lol)
