Ghost Stories...my fair share :p

It's halloween and this is the time when we reminisce our "encounter with the ghosts".Actually,for me ghost is just a result of our wild imaginations.we were just influenced by the Chinese people who believe in lots of superstitions and that include ghosts.our ancestors believed and acquired it until now.Do you still remember when our parents and other relatives used to scare us with ghosts?I remember my older sisters,when we didnt want to sleep at night yet,they will scare us and we will end up covering our face with a blanket so we could not see the "ghosts".

When my father died when i was just 9yrs old,i didnt scare a bit,i remember waking up at 4am to get ready for school.i can be alone in the middle of the night for as long as nobody will scare me,im ok.i get scared too but only because sometimes i scared myself by imagining things....lol.

I didnt really believe in ghost,until when i was hired as a high school teacher after i graduated in college.it was a Catholic School,the school conducted an overnight camp fire with the girl scouts from first year to fourth year.my advisory class was second year so I was assigned to be there and assisted them.As soon as I arrived in the school at 6pm,me and my co teacher monette went to the faculty room to put our things there,but nobody was there and it was closed,so we just went to see the students,while i was with them at the covered court,i glanced at the window and noticed that there was a woman standing near the comfort room inside the faculty room,i was just a few steps away from her although i was outside,i called out monette and told her that one of our co teacher were already inside,I told her that it was Mrs.David,coz she looked like her,although i didnt really see her face, I called "Mrs.David" but she didnt even look nor moved.so we went inside only to our surprise that nobody was there,goosebumps enveloped me,i didnt notice that i was already crying and monette already left me,i wasnt able to move a muscle.there were people who came there to checked on me,I told them to check the comfort room because maybe she was just inside but there was none,by the way,there was only one exit to that room and if she already left,we will get a chance to bumped with her but we didnt.they escorted me outside and pacified me.after that incident,it was followed by another one but i was already with my co teachers so they also witnessed it,that made me think that maybe they just wanted their presence to be felt and they needed somebody to pray for their souls.and we did.That was my first and last real encounter with a ghost.

It's not only during all saints or all souls day that we have to remember our departed ones,everyday,let's offer a prayer to them,also to the souls of those who left unexpectedly.

I still get scared to ghosts sometimes,but i'm more scared to those who are still living because they're capable of harming and hurting us. Especially to those who are in power hehehe...SO BEWARE!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
