The host provides the holy ghost a room, bedding, and most meals, obviously. May even throw in a splash of holy water, if it's an especially polite host.
Pretty much like I am here, MB. Except in real life I don't have much of a sense of humor, am clean-shaven, and Jeopardy is my idea of intellectual entertainment. And in real life, of course, I actually look and act every minute of my 54 years.
Other than that, you've pretty much seen the Real Me here.
"I am yes and no depending on the flavour of the question."
My initial favorite, D. Thanks for this meditative piece. I happen to be in exactly the right meditative state in my apres-Xmas blues to fully appreciate what you're saying, I think.
No wonder my "Hey, there, I'm a beautiful stranger" hasn't been getting me the responses I've been looking for, E. Thanks for the heads-up (I assumed they were Madonna fans, too...probably another faux pas).
Agreed, Robert - booze just makes depressing occasions that much more depressing. You just have to work that much harder to keep yourself and others afloat.
Now peyote or magic mushrooms...that's a whole 'nother story.
Jeez, Indy, I never even thought of that! Makes a helluva lotta sense, when you think about it. I was lying in bed, bladder full, sleeping off a hangover, and I just happen to astral project to a bathroom. Hmmm...but why not at least to a lady's bathroom? That's the part that baffles me. Could've journeyed ethereally to any bathroom in the world...why one with my roommate taking a dump...? Perhaps merely one of the life's great enigmas?
As Euphoria and I agreed elsewhere, you're very lovely, too Riya - inside and out (though, as a scientist, I must reserve full judgment on the "out" until you show us more of epidermis;-). And you can accomplish it without a beard, bandana, masses of makeup, and an over-sized earring!
Not sure this qualifies as "supernatural," but it certainly seemed out of the ordinary. I "astral-projected," once...possibly. I ended up in this bathroom where my roommate was taking a dump (he confirmed this).
Of all the places I could've sent my astral self...to a bathroom...I was so disgusted and traumatized, I never did it again.
I agree with Euphoria, with a minor difference: "inside and out...." Not to be crude, but speaking philosophically, we haven't seen your whole body yet (yes, the face and soul are lovely, of course), so I don't feel I can state this with complete certainty. I'm hoping you'll understand, Riya, and help us remedy this "Plato's Cave" situation.
Hey, Trish. The worst of those "vagaries," imo, would be the loss of a child - that's what I was thinking mainly of when I wrote that. And you've gone through it - what I can't imagine (nor would I want to). I have a great deal of respect for you, Trish, for doing that, though I'm not convinced it wouldn't crush me. I'm trying to think of something positive that could counterbalance such an event, and coming up very short at the moment....
