Do you believe in the afterlife?

Well, I didn't get it right away. It is a very nice banner anyway.

After my hubby died, and I moved into a new house, my outdoor lightbulbs on either side of the garage kept burning out. No sooner then I would replace one, the other would go out. This happened about 6, 8 times within a couple of months. Someone suggested Jason was messing with me. So, when I went to replace another burnt bulb, I told him to "leave 'em the f*ck alone..." Needless to say, I haven't replaced a bulb since. There was a couple of times in the past 2 years (I can't believe it's been that long) that I've wondered aloud where something was, and I clearly hear his voice in my head telling me where to look. Sure enough, it's where I'm told to go. Yes, I absolutely believe in the afterlife.

I just find ALL then banners to be a waste of bandwidth. Why do we have to scroll through them? Sorry, but I find them annoying. No offense, jmo.

Aw, Lux, you had me going there!

Anyway, I do believe in an afterlife, though I think it's a really vague term that means different things to different people. My Mom wouldn't want me to share the details on a message board, but just let me say that we feel pretty certain that some of our family members who have passed on contacted us shortly afterward, and sometimes I think they continue to do so. So, I do think that your mom might have been trying to tell your family that she's okay, Brian. I believe that that's possible. I'm not the most spiritual person and I don't really believe in God other than one that might have created the world and that's the extent of it, but I do believe in the human spirit, and I also believe that love survives death into eternity, so I think that your mom could be watching over all of you, wanting you to know that she's okay and wanting to help you all cope.

I like looking at people's banners. They're decorations and ways of showing that we're devoted fans. Why not? I was thrilled about my Stevie & Christine banner when Mikki made it for me. Besides, some of us are supporting Ledgies so why wouldn't we have the privilege of displaying banners and such?

I absolutely believe in an afterlife And I also believe that our dead loved ones send us signs and things from beyond...some crazy things happened to my grandma after my great-grandma died - and an ex co-worker of mine had some amazing stories from after her brother died.

I, personally, don't have any afterlife stories - but I completely and wholeheartedly believe that there is life in some form after death.

I really do believe in the afterlife. I've had so many experiences but I'll just share one here. When I was growing up, our next door neighbors were an elderly couple. The man liked to "sneak" over into our yard and "borrow" our roses--cut a few for his wife to take her. We didn't mind and loved this man very much. He was a very sweet man and I thought of him as a grandfather figure, as both of mine were dead by this time. Anyway, he had a massive, fatal heart attack and died. I was about 12 at the time and the day after he was buried, I got sick and stayed home from school. My Mom was in our den with me, watching TV when all of a sudden, we both smelled the faint smell of roses. The smell got stronger and stronger until it was simply overwhelmng. My dog, who had been asleep at my feet, got up, the fur ruffled up on his back and looked up at me bewildered. My mother looked over at me and said, "Do you smell that?" I replied, "Yes!" And with that, the smell vanished. There were no room deoderizers in the room. Neither of us were wearing perfume. And oh yeah, did I mention this was in the dead of winter-January--and it was about 30 degrees outside--no roses anywhere near us either inside or outside that house.

You're relentless! Really, though, some people spend lots of time working on banners and don't come up with something that looks as nice as what you have there.
