A Dip into the Unknown.

It is said that there are many mysteries in life and even possibly in the time thereafter. Have you wondered about reports and stories of communication with the departed? My Father in his early life did have a gift so I am told by my Mother. She was present when his appearance would alter and he spoke with a different voice. He relayed the thoughts and feelings of departed spirits. Unfortunately for me I would have liked to witness these events but my Father suffered a major accident at work that left him too weak to undergo the strain involved in physical demonstration and for the rest of his life he had permanent disabilities.

To my great disappointment I do not have the ability to traverse and perceive the hidden world but unknown to me until later when my daughter was to be born I was to have quite a shock. It was as she grew that my daughter started talking about individuals who were no longer with us physically and she began to refer to seeing departed characters. For my wife and I it was certainly a shock but the events did remind my of my own Father's experiences. This was the only referenced perspective I had to relate to, in listening to my daughter I have to say that every time she would dip into the unknown there was a lot of interesting experiences to be had and each time it seemed that I had yet more to find out.

On a school excursion to a historical ruin my daughter had a conversation with one of the departed former residents. Funny anecdotes built a personalised overview of the blank four walls we had walked through and all of a sudden we had leant about the secret doors which led to many hidden a life story. Later in class she was able to give highly detailed information about the building and the way of life. Teachers seemed amazed but intrigued by it. This ability for my daughter become unique as in a later school English lesson in a debate about a Shakespeare quote my daughter had a direct line of communication to the author and with authority stated information which the teacher verified but believed only few knew. In an interview at Oxford the interviewer lost track of time as my daughter could relay the feelings and emotions of so many of the authors they discussed. Now my daughter writes a web page that not only gives inspiration, she also writes and illustrates stories for young children.

Belief is something personal but I am sure more good is done by having an open mind as to what possibilities may be.
