Amazing thoughts being exchanged and immensely helpful.
It's certainly given myself a new perspective.
For sure, I am a primal sceptic and yet, mystified.
Essentially, is it seriously possible for someone deceased to make a solid object materialise, in response to a plea for condolement?
Thought occurred, is it seriously possible to receive a historical query from someone in New Zealand, find the answer in seconds and respond, all within a minute?
I did so earlier, accomplished with a small, hand-held, electronic device.
It can also instantly find and play any music I like, show live sport from all over the world and even view our planet, live, from space.
I don't even have to leave my comfy chair!
None of which would have been, 'possible', say, only 20 years ago?
The first question of course is, does an afterlife exist.
Perhaps this should be considered in the context of how large the observable universe is - circa 93 billion light years - or what controls nature, or....
Perhaps my own conclusion now...
What can be dismissed as impossible?
Especially given the hard fact there is a tangible object involved in this episode and presently no evidence where it came from.
Nobody put it there, that's for sure.
We are all of a mind that such would be perverse.
Plus, there is the significant background of asking for some sign of solace and then finding a unicorn ring - specifically - lying right in the middle of the bedroom floor.
Not something you would easily miss, beforehand.
I sincerely appreciate expressions that the overall story has been heartfelt.
Also eternally grateful for the unseen technical endeavours, which make all of this possible in our little Fortean enclave.
...'doing Charles Fort proud'...
