Since the death of my husband and a couple of happenings....I have really been studying about Angels. There are many theories, books, etc. out there and trying to sort out the varying opinions, theories and stories can be a bit...much. I have learned a lot and do know that I believe in them and truly feel there has been a couple of experiences with them in my life.

--How do you feel about angels?
--Have you ever had an experience? Could you share if yes?
--What is your beliefs for 'good', 'bad' or 'miraculous' angels? less

Ok... Here's where the It-Guy goes and gets all Scientific but spiritual up in here....

(My own stance on the after life and life in general, its gonna sound weird but just humor me)

The law of conservation of energy states:

"Energy can be neither be created nor destroyed but only changed."

How does that have to do with death and being spiritual you may ask...

The human body works on electrical and chemical impulses for it to properly function. This would also mean that energy in the body is changed and used in different ways. Synthesizing food into energy and sugars and proteins into structure for example....Right?

(I know its getting weird hang with me on this one)

Memories and senses are electro-chemical too and they are stored in the brain and body. That's how you can remember things from your early childhood when you are in your 30's. When the body ceases to function I feel that that energy and information by proven physics is not destroyed but only changed. Possibly into something that we are unable to identify or experience. Energy is proven to not be lost... but where does it go?

Some scientists believe that the energy that leaves the body is the soul. Which I take comfort in because it is always possible to experience that energy again if its only been changed and not destroyed.

What I am saying is if all of that is true that would then mean that life does not stop when the body does. Do angels exist? I choose to believe they do. I hope that I haven't upset you in any way and I am so sorry for your loss js.

The whys and how come's are none of my business but I have lost people myself and I have experienced things that make me believe that there is more to life than what we know. I choose to believe that there is always a possibility of angels in a way it almost seems that what we know already proves it to be true.

God bless. less

Thank you. You did not upset me in any way--if anything it clarified some of the thoughts and experiences I have had since my hubby died. I know he has been in this house with me and after I got our truck back from the shop.... let's just say I do not drive it alone. I greatly appreciate the time and thought you put into your answer!! less

Me too! When I was allowed back into our home after the State Crime Lab Investigation was done I was not sure of what I would find. The cleanup of a death is left up to the family, not performed by the state. It took me a few hours before I could go near the area where my husband was shot and died. A couple days later when I sat down to say my thoughts and prayers to him, I placed the angel down prior to actually sitting down myself. I had to take the picture to clarify to myself that I was not seeing things I might have wanted to see in a tragic and emotional time period. It has been 2 months and looking at the pics--there is no misinterpretation. My husband's blood is in the exact shape of the angel.

Very crazy, very comforting but still very heartbreaking. less

Thank you! Your comment brought tears to my eyes--it meant so much to me! I can feel when he is with me...it is a warmer and more complete feeling than when being in the house or our truck by myself. Then something happens...

I really damaged my 1971 Chevy truck engine and transmission when I jammed the shifter into Park while accelerating to 40MPH. I jumped out of the skidding truck and started running down our driveway... I did this when I arrived at the house after my hubby had been shot and I did not have any idea what had happened. A few days later I got a call from my hubby's closest friend telling me that he had been up there in his house...he asked me to come over. When I pulled into his driveway, my truck died and would not start again. The friend came out, looked at my truck and tolf me that the bent rod caused my carburetor to come loose. My gas was pouring all over the engine and spark plugs...He spent 6 hours rebuilding my carb and getting a new gasket. My truck could have blown sky high if the gas would have sparked. Especially after evaporation and the massive amount of fumes..... less

Definitely! He was my husband's friend and while we are friendly, we never called each other or talked much. I didn't think a lot of this since it happened so soon after his death-but the friend called me back yesterday to say he has not seen him since then--thought it was odd. Then my hubby's aunt called me behind her husband's back to say she has been seeing him and felt like she needed to make amends for what she did after he died.....that happened today. Soooo thinking he is going where he is needed to tie up his loose ends. less
