The part about the ghosts being cold because they lose energy and then, in relation to them, the rest of creation feeling like a fiery furnace is excellent. <br /><br />Lost of good points by Southern Writer as well. Plenty to ponder. Maybe I'll start hanging about, haunting this site. I would have come earlier if I'd known it was so interesting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13423684.post-33196337612162271902006-12-18T23:56:00.000+00:002006-12-18T23:56:00.000+00:00Yay! Thank you for this post. I like your others, ...Yay! Thank you for this post. I like your others, too, but you know these are my favorites. <br /><br /><i>It’s very common for a manifestation to be accompanied by a reduction in the local temperature. Sometimes just as a cold spot, sometimes as a chilling of the whole room.</i><br /><br />I'm thinking there must be more than one kind of ghost, because I don't always find this to be the case (and was glad to see you said, "it's very common," which does not mean it's an absolute, right?) I have experienced the cold effects - the house I lived in as a kid was always cold, but I guess I just attributed it to being a big old drafty house. I was 9, 10, 11, 12 years old then, what the hell did I know? But in recent years, this hasn't been the case for me. Of course, I haven't actually seen a ghost appear recently, other than the I-don't-know-what-that-was incident I told you about last month, but I am often aware when a particular one is nearby, and I get none of the "usual symptoms." So isn't it likely that some are earthbound, and some are able to return here from some other place? Both intrigue me, and I wish I understood it more. Have any thoughts on that idea?<br /><br /><i>If we don’t eat, we become thinner and weaker. If ghosts don’t absorb energy, they too become weaker.</i> <br /><br />How do we know this? I'm not challenging you to provide proof, but you must have discovered some evidence or understand laws of physics that I don't (admittedly not my strong suit), in order to say this. What type energy would they feed on? Fear? Living human presence? Art? Music? What? Let's say for instance, you're out hunting and find a ghost in an old empty house, and it's dressed in something from a hundred years ago. What has that ghost been existing on? <br /><br />Which reminds me of something else I've been meaning to ask you: why are ghosts always dressed? Do you think they still have the same code of decency and shame that the living have? And are they dressed in their burial clothes, or something they particularly liked when they were living? <br /><br />Here's another thing that worries me. Ghosts seem to remain the same age they were when they died. So if I had any plans to get jiggy with an old boyfriend who died when he was 24, and I don't die until I'm 60 or 80, I'll pretty much be s.o.l., won't I?<br /><br />I'm not sure I fully accept that ghosts must live by the same laws of physics that we do, because you said yourself, they don't eat (or perform any of the other bodily functions that we do) or reproduce (can you imagine life with orgasm? That would suck). They have the ability to walk through walls and yet, wasn't it interesting in that video of the little girl at the top of the stairs walked through a doorway, like the rest of us (which was the most convincing ghost footage I've ever seen, but why are all his other ones so obviously bad imitations?). Anyway, I'm not sure they have to adhere to the laws of gravity, magnetism, centrifugal force, etc. like we do.<br /><br />Shoot. I have to get up and go to the store now. Bummer. See ya later. I'm looking forward to next time.astrologymemphis.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094432734141490681noreply@blogger.com
