late halloween post!

This is not to spook anyone or something. I just have to share this and maybe expect some few explanation apt for what happened.

I do believe in ghosts, if that's what we should call them. And that's because I have seen, heard and felt some since my childhood. My mom thinks I inherited such capacity from her because she does have a third eye. I don't know if I share the same sense or if it just so happens that we live in houses with "boarders". But thing is, I know when there's something else... I tend to get scared a lot. But okay, my point is that I do believe in them.

Tonight, on our way home, my mom told me quite an unbelievable story. Last Nov.1 while she was busy preparing lunch, she received a text message. She opened her fliptop phone and screened through it, surprised that it was from a friend..... a dead friend. (As I type this, I'm all spooked out). She managed to keep it from all of us thinking that someone else might be using her friend's phone. The text contained an inspirational message with a very mysterious ending.... "God bless, ading". Ading was what her friend calls her. It's an Ilocano term for a younger sister/brother.

This morning, in the office, she learned that five other people received the text. They tried to phone their friend's husband and asked who was using the phone. Appalled, he told them that he kept all her personal belongings in a box and have never dared to open it since the interment for apparent emotional reasons. They requested that he check the phone. He took it from the box and had it charged for some time since it hadn't been turned on for months (or so everyone thought). The moment he turned on the phone, messages sent as replies to her alleged Nov. 1 textbrig streamed in. For some more mysterious reasons, there were no messages in the sent item folder.

I was totally taken aback. It sounded impossible but I believed my mom. I don't know what that incident meant but I do hope you also pray for my mom's friend's soul.

Let's all pray for our deceased loved ones not only because it's Halloween but because they still our affection. :)
