Paranormal

[Cloverjo]

Do you believe this ludicrous description of Gloria Hunniford’s “guardian angel”?
Surely no one would leave their passports and precious things with a stranger with no idea of where she lived or how to get the things back?

“I opened my eyes to see Stephen’s head [Gloria’s husband]against the windscreen. There was blood on his face as well as coming from his ear. I thought, ‘Oh my God, I’ve killed him.’ It was shocking. Ambulances and police cars started arriving then, suddenly, this long blonde haired girl came out of the crowd. In perfect English she said to me, ‘Would you like me to look after your things?’ We had personal belongings, passports and all sorts but I said, ‘Yes please.’ We left them with her and went to the hospital. Thankfully Stephen was not seriously injured.

We didn’t know where we were but we found a hotel and the next morning we went to a café in the square for some breakfast. The girl from the crash scene appeared at our table and said, ‘Would you like me to take you to your car?’

We had been in such a state of shock we didn’t know where our car was – we were just so grateful to be alive. We had thought the car had been moved by the police but didn’t have a clue where to start looking. She drove us to a garage about 4km away where we found our car and all our precious belongings.

We thanked her then she said goodbye and drove off. Later, when we had calmed down, I felt terrible that I didn’t say a proper thank you – she had been so kind. I bought her flowers and we went back to the café where, I assumed, she was a waitress. But she wasn’t there and, to our amazement, the owner had no idea who I was talking about when I described her. We didn’t know her name and no one in the tiny French village knew who she was.

I believe she was a guardian angel on Earth looking out for us. When I talk about it I still get goosebumps and shivers up my back. I think she was sent to us when we really needed it.”

What nonsense. IMO

[woofgang]

I am not sure why you care?

[fender62]

if it gives her comfort and no one is harmed, so be it.
but as they say, There are more things in heaven and Earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy, do we really know.

[Old_Geezer]

Maybe. Sounds far fetched but why should she lie ?

[LadyCG]

I think she is detached from reality. I don't think she really accepts her daughter is gone.

[rowanwitch]

How about. There are good people in the world who will offer help without thinking anything of it. That is who they encountered...a good person

[Cloverjo]

Just something to talk about, woofgang. I wondered if anyone agreed with Gloria.
Where’s my guardian angel?

[Cloverjo]

Yes, maybe, Rowan. But why would anyone leave their stuff with a stranger with no idea how to get it back?

[Old_Geezer]

Shock ?

[rowanwitch]

Shock and disorientation.
Have you ever met someone who just feels right who within seconds you know you can trust completely.

[Theland]

Hope is better than despair.

[Mamyalynne]

I believe she believes it and that's fine by me.

[JimF]

She's not hurting anybody. Just look around - people believe a lot weirder stuff than this!

[Chipchopper]

They say "truth is stranger than fiction"

[elliemay1]

She also believes that when she sees a feather in an unexplained place it's Karen giving her a sign

[Mamyalynne]

The white feather/angel analogy is very widespread.

I have lots of personal beliefs that others might not credit but they remain personal.

[Tilly2]

She believes it to be true. That's fine with me.

[elliemay1]

It's good that it obviously gives her comfort.

[Tilly2]

I believe that when I was a child,I saw a fairy flying outside a window. I was enchanted by its colours and beauty.

I 'know' it can't be true but I still believe it.

[Theland]

As a follow on question in combination with this one:-

Are you, "Spritual?"

Lots of people claim to be without following a recognised religion.

From Cliff Richards' Christianity, to Madonnas' Kabala wearing a red thread on her wrist, and so many celebs claiming something similar

So how about you?

[Patsy33]

I've heard similar stories before. I think people are there at just the right time in despairing happenings. Whether this is coincidence or paranormal occurrences, who knows? If Gloria is comforted by what she believes, then so be it.
