What if? It's the basis of many stories. We ask. We ponder. We wonder.
On Tuesdays I throw one out there. What if? It may be speculative. It may stem from something I see. It may be something I pull from the news.
Make of it what you will. If a for instance is not specified, interpret that instance as you wish. And if the idea turns into a story, I'd appreciate a thank you in the acknowledgements 😉
What if the veil between the living and dead really did thin at this time of year, and we could talk to friends/family that have passed on and they could talk to us?
I supposed I'd be used to it, and look forward to the annual "meetings." However, since it isn't like that, I wouldn't like it. I wouldn't want to hear from my dead loved ones. Again, if it was how I was raised, and always did, great. I wouldn't wish it to be true though. I know it is true to some, so I mean no disrespect to their beliefs when I say that!
ReplyDeleteI would love it! I could ask my dad all sorts of questions and hug him and I could hug my mom.
ReplyDeleteThere are those on the other side I would love to talk to again. My mother, who passed on when I was 12, to get to know her as an adult, for one. But I would want to be able to choose who I do get to meet with.
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful what if. I'd love to talk to my late husband even if it could only be at this time of the year.
ReplyDeleteI have to ask my parents a few things, too
ReplyDeleteYes, I'd love that veil to be lifted. I would love to talk to my parents.
ReplyDeleteI think it would be awsome. I would like to ask those who on the other side. What they thought of computers.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on.
I would seek guidance from my late dad regarding the problems I'm currently facing.
