Do you believe that when our loved ones pass on they try to communicate with us?

Well, there is more than one way to look at this....what we want and what the bible tells us.  We want to believe that our loved ones are consantly keeping up with us in heaven.  But the bible tells us that when we die we have no memory of earth.  But we do know "of" each other in heaven......we know what we were to each other.....hope this helps.

Do you also feel that they remind you of someone in your family/or someone who has been very close to you? Do they have something in common like alcohol addiction?\nIf so, it may have a psychological explanation.

I still feel that sometimes, and my grandfather died 20 years ago.  If you had a strong bond, it's normal.  Either that or we both are crazy.

Yes, a family member, or a close friend. And make sure that it is someone who will let you stay in contact.

yes, i have.\nshortly after my grandmother passed away, which i had a very hard time with. i had a dream in which she came to me and said that i needed to let her go and that she waould stay with me this one last night but then i needed to say good bye. the next morning when i woke up she was standing at the end of my bed i reached for her, but she was gone. i have not seen her since. some people say i was still dreaming and who knows i might have been, but in my heart i believe she was there with me.

When my father died I was most touched by those individuals who told me they were sorry for my loss - and then told me a little story about how my father had touched their lives or told me about why they thought he was such a good man. I don't know if there is anything more comforting than to hear these anecdotal comments. They are so positive and fulfilling to hear. They also are thought that you can “take away” with you after the conversation is over. Even today, and it’s been almost 30 years, those are the conversations I remember and that were most meaningful to me at this time of great loss.\n\nIf you are unable to talk with the grieving person, sending your thoughts in a note would be just as appreciated.

I saw my first spirit when I was 14. It was the summer of 1987.(showing my age)My cousin's best friend was killed in a bicycle accident. About 2 months after his death, he made his appearance at my cousin's house outside his bedroom. Since then I seen the spirit of my grandfather (who died a year before my birth) on the 25th anniversary of his death. I believe in psychic abilities...somehow I can receive people's thoughts, but, unable to do it at my own whim. I am able to "know" information about someone that just pops into my head. Again it is random. Try this short activity, when the phone rings *minus caller id* predict who will be on the receiving end. Think of someone that you haven't been in contact in a long time, see if you bump into them or hear from them.

They start acting distant.  They pick on you.  They are impatient with you.  They try to minimize the significance of your relationship.  It's a hard thing to see because you don't want to face it.  Just start working on being good to yourself and not blaming yourself for their loss.

of course not\nbut we are born, we live and YES we die..we all do this..but.......\n\neveryone we come in contact ( yes everyone )\nwe change and add or subtract form their lives in ways we may never know\nso we change others live from our birth through out our lives and yes even at our death..\nsome changes are so very small and some changes are drastically huge..but we do change everyone we come in contact with\n\njust like you and I right now...\n\nso lets just change ourselves so when we come in contact with anyone..we actually do them some good..instead of dropping off bad on them\n\nnext time at a stop sign, smile and say no you first and let them go.\n\nnext item you see some one raise their figure to you..do not look oar say anything..who know what that poor person is going through at that moment..make good happen and it will flow throw out the world...\n just like they say..if a butterfly flaps its wings in China..will we feel it in America..the answer is YES..we will some how some way..sooner or later  it will effect everyone...\n\nGod bless \nand have  great day everyone

No one REALLY knows, but my opinion is that we either cross over into a spiritual world or not - that's easy, yes or no.  If we do, then ghosts certainly are possible.  Our souls are immortal, or they just cease to exist when the body dies.  Maybe some souls haven't crossed over yet, are wandering around for awhile, maybe until something is resolved to them.  Seems there would be many contacts, but there aren't, and I really don't believe in Mediums - the ghosts shouldn't need them.  Ask your mom and grandma about their experiences, if they are willing to discuss them, and learn as much as you can.  Talk to other family members too.  I think they are sincere, or definitely believe, even if possibly they're just having dreams. I wish I knew someone who has ghost experiences.  I hope there is an after-life.  Good luck in finding out.

Probably not being able to say good-bye to any of my loved ones before they died. Say you didn't remember to say good-bye to your mom before she left to the grocery store and then an hour later you get a call saying she was killed in a car accident due to someone who ran a red light. Or what if your husband or wife had gone to work without saying good-bye and that day a 9/11 happens to their work building? Or even worse what if you yell at them before something happened to them. I think that would be a nightmare and taht is why I always try to stay on good terms with my family or always try to say goodbye before I leave or they leave. \nSecond though would be spiders or heights! LOL

We think about it because they aren't around anymore.  As long as someone is living it's in the back of our mind that we can call them, write them, go and see them - even if we never do.  When someone dies it registers in our head that they aren't there anymore and there is no way we can get to know them or let them know we actually cared about them - which brings on a little guilt, because no matter how busy you are it only takes 5min of your time to call a loved one and say "hi, how are you" and let them know you care.\nIn our society family isn't always the most important thing and it should be.  In other cultures family is everything, no matter what.  Here in America other things become important - friends, ourselves, work, etc - and we just don't give our family the time that they deserve.

I went through a phase where I had to tell everyone how much they meant to me - it's second nature - I don't get wishy washy just truthful - and it doesn't happen to often. \n\nBasically one day i got an email from a colleague talking about how we must take the opportunity to show our love even if they get on our nerves all the time.   There are people out there who lose loved ones and will never get that chance again.  I felt weird but I knew I had to do it too and I did - I was surprised that my family didn't tell me to pull myself together - rather they showed love back.

If you mean that you believe that you have been visited by someone who has passed over, then yes it is possible that they are around you in spirit, especially loved ones.\nMany who pass from this physical world cannot leave the realms of this dimention for many reasons and can be trying to tell you this.
