So, of course, this world is connected to that of the dead. But the line that divides us is open. For so long, it has always been open, but at this time, more than ever. It might not be a coincidence that Halloween is celebrated during October but the worlds really do in a way join together.
Why do I say this? I am not a sensitive person to these things but lately... I have been seeing things. I must admit that I am a very paranoid person but to see these things is not common in my life.
I speak of the afterlife and the souls or spirits of those that cannot crossover. Those that stay here.
In my house, I believe that there are two such entities. One of which is a small girl about the age of 7-12? I'm not sure. The other is a man. I have never been able to see this man. Just his shadow.
When my family and I first moved to this neighborhood. We had owned the house next the one we currently live in. From that house you could see through a window. As children, we were all curious as to what was here. Anxious to see our father rebuild our "new" house. That one day we looked through the window. I saw that girl. She came up walking towards us. Her eyes were closed as she came close. I kept looking at her, thinking it was one of my sisters or cousins. I pointed and asked who was she but everyone just kept trying to look through the window.
Since that day I had not seen her. Though she wasn't the only one I would see. The attic of the house is usually always creepy. Ours was no different. This time we all did see something that one day we ventured there. I was so scared that I froze in place. That shadow just standing over me. He is always here somewhere. I always see him. His shadow. Still I'm scared.
Since that day I have not seen the girl. Until recently that is. Not long ago while in the bathroom. I was innocently humming a song when I see the leg a girl walk through the bathroom door. It was white as snow with a nightgown just reaching her ankle. I was scared. I didn't believe it but it happened again. Even just now as I walked through the kitchen I saw another shadow. As if someone was looking over there shadow as I was coming. When I saw it and blinked it was gone...
I guess I'm prone to experiencing these things since I am a scorpio. Really death has been one of the most alluring and mysterious happenings of my life. For isn't death around us at every corner? Sad enough that there are those that don't want to accept it.
I see death as the ultimate liberation. An endless sleep of peace without nightmares. Yet, there are those that do not believe and wander in place. Such a shame; Such waste.
