what personal experiences, encounters, or moments in your life that made you think, “Okay… maybe there’s more to this world than we see.”

Sakin kasi,
Nung malapit ng ilibing lolo ko, ang daming mga itim na paro-paro/moth nag si litawan bigla sa lamay — sobrang unusual yun kasi never ngyari yun sa 15 years namin na naninirahan sa bahay. Nung araw na ililibing na si lolo, gulat nalang kaming lahat na may malaking paro-paro/moth na itim naka patong sa dibdib ni lolo. Never namin binuksan yung kabaong, at may naka bantay kay lolo parati bale taking shifts kami, imposibling may bumukas, at imposible ding makapasok yung paro-paro/moth kasi ang laki nya. It just didnt make sense to us kong paano. Palaisipan padin talaga sa amin until ngayon, and that’s why we turned to the supernatural factors nalang.

Yesterday, a friend of mine told me about her workmate's weird story.

Sabi daw ng ka-workmate niya, namatay recently yung great-grandmother sa side ng deceased mother niya. She was there sa wake kasi ininvite yung papa niya. Apparently, parang nag-held daw sila ng lowkey celebration kasi may pakain, etc. It really weirded her out kasi bakit parang nagce-celebrate sila kahit may namatay?

Her papa and her being recluses, they felt like OP doon, but they still paid their respects. Nung nag-uwian na daw yung ibang nakikilamay, they eventually decided na umuwi na rin. They were heading towards the gate when they overheard something about a bola/bato na kinuha daw galing sa great-grandmother niya before siya pumanaw.

Then she clearly heard someone ask, "Kanino pinasa?"

It was really weird for her, but apparently, her papa knew something and didn't say anything.

Nung nakauwi na sila sa bahay, her papa explained na yung namatay daw was a known manghihilot before. Her papa had been one of her customers, and legit daw ang galing niya. May ritual daw na ginagawa before mangyari yung actual hilot, which eventually led to rumors na aswang daw siya or something along those lines.

Her papa partly believed the rumors, and this was the reason why panay-insist yung papa niya na kumain sila before pumunta sa wake. Yun pala, para hindi daw sila kumain doon, kasi medyo natatakot sya.

This was really interesting to me, which is why my friend and I went to this sub and searched if there were any similar cases. Lo and behold, ang dami, then sa bibig daw kinukuha yung bola/bato. Chills!

I think this is more than just a coincidence. I believe they do exist among us and I think majority of them are good. Baka may narinig din kayong similar case?
