The commander of our American Legion passed away in the legion from a heart attack, they spent 45 minutes trying to revive him with no luck. I was the weekend Bartender at the time and a few months later I saw him in full colorgaurd uniform by the bar as I was closing the bar. Everyone thought I was full of it when I told them including the head bartender but a few weeks later he saw him to, he is always in full colorgaurd uniform because his pride was with the colorgaurd , they were state champions the year he died. There is alot of activity in that particular legion but I got used to it. Was I drinking you might think before I saw him? No but I can assure you I was after I saw him, do I believe yes I do.

My Father's only living, (the others died in infancy) Oldest Brother, by about 18 ys, Passed first.
Then with the next Month, my Father.
The folowing Month, Uncle Wayne married, to Aunt Lois, Dad's youngest older Sister, and the next b4 him,(Dad was the youngest) by 12 yrs.
These three hung around together in Life as mucc Buddies as Brothers and Brothers-In-Law, and despite Both Uncles having Helped to raise Dad with their own Children.
All of their Widows said later, It was like they were witing for each other, to be together in Death as in Life.
Supernatural is sometimes natural for some and very unnatural for others.
For the dying who are struggling to breath and in their final moments find breath to utter there last goodbyes this is a supernatural event for those who have watched the months of struggling. For those witnessing the death in the moment of this immediately prior to death happening it appears natural as they were not aware that breathing was not natural for the one dying up until their last moment.
There are cultures who have communed and respected the whole of life that pulses just as their heart beat does. Interweaving and interconnecting to the whole of life that would find losing that connection a very supernatural event because this is all they know. The same could be said for those who are not aware of the connection they have with all things.
Sometimes natural, sometimes super natural. All depends...
StressFree: I think they are natural occurrences, but we define them as supernatural because they are not accepted as empirical in our paradigms... I had a long discussion the other day with some Christians about this... particularly about how Jesus' healing powers will once be able to be mastered by humans. Apparently some do have this ability to heal with their hands and balancing the energy zones in our energy grid system (auras and chakras).
While I don't quite agree that healing powers exist (unless its medicinally induced), I do agree with the first half of that.
