Do you believe in ghost? Me? I believe they are around but I do not see them nor feel them unlike other people who have special ability like a ‘third eye’ that they can recognize a ghost or lost spirit in every place where they may be found. I always heard stories about them and this time coming from my family… the movie ‘The Others’ of Nicole Kidman is also one of my favorite.

Why I mention ghost and spirits here? Because they showed up during my Tita’s house blessing. My lola invited a priest who is a close friend of the family and is known of his ‘third eye’ ability. Now this supposedly festive occasion mixes with horror when the priest announces to the family after the celebration that he found an old lady sitting in one of the room. It’s scary but true, because my aunties and most of my cousins seen some peculiarities in the house and thought that there are indeed ghost inside the house.

But well, my opinion is… as long as they won’t harm the people living in the house, its fine and they continue to be just ‘The Others’. The House Blessing is still a successful occasion.
