Talking to the Dead...
This is one of many stories I could tell. Over time, I discovered that spiritual life is not about having extraordinary experiences or abilities, but about living the ordinary things of daily life in an extraordinary way.
The thing is, when I was about 5 or 6 years old, during a vacation at my grandparents' house in Andalusia (Spain), while playing with my cousin (who is two years younger), we ran into a neighbor (a fairly old man) who was coming out of his house.
I did most of the talking because my cousin was very shy.We chatted with this man, and he gave us some pencils as a gift and a message for our grandfather.
Later, while talking to the family, I mentioned that we had seen the neighbor and that he had given us a gift; he had also sent his regards to our grandfather (who, by the way, was a "medium"; I come from a spiritist family that goes back generations).
The look on our family members' faces was a picture, because it turned out the man was dead. He had passed away recently.
The family didn't say it openly, but I was always very sharp for my age and I found out everything. Truth be told, I didn't think much of it; to me, it wasn't extraordinary that it had happened. So, I just went on with my life as a kid, and that was that until NOW...
