"dead people" in just the same way, doing the same mundane things they did in life...In your case,
it seems to have happened too many times, with the resemblance being too dead on (no pun intended!) to be
the living who may have resembled them.
I, too, would probably be too "chicken" to go and talk to them. :scared
Your point about the dead going to another dimension resonates with me, as it's something I've thought on before.
The theory, which may correlate with quantum physics, you can tell me, is that heaven or the "afterlife" is not a place
and certainly not in "the sky" some atheists mockingly refer to, but another dimension.
I've read that this dimension operates at a higher frequency than ours does and on reading that, I did recall
a childhood "memory", which may have been a "dream" rather than an actual memory, but it did coincide with that
description of another dimension which seemed to vibrate at a higher frequency.
I'll be happy to tell you about it in my next post, but for now, I have to go to bed -- So tired, arranging and packing for
a last minute, but long trip overseas....I'm bringing my notebook, so I'll definitely be checking back in with you.
