  1. A Story

    Share Share Post
    There was once a man who was ill and he had a doctor with him. They had several conversations - about spirits returning - during his illness. The man told the doctor that if it were so that his spirit would appear to him.
    After the man's death the doctor was passing by the man's gate. The doctor was driving a horse and the horse would not go by the gate. He had to go another way. The doctor never saw the man again.
