I was thinking of the past and my heart was beating fast... No, no this is John Lennon's song but it comes in handy, the guy is dead and Since the subjects I'm about to touch today are ghosts, psychics and people who can predict the future John Lennon is all right.
Do you believe in ghosts? I don't know if I do but I will tell you these 2 stories that I have lived.
A couple of years ago my brother move into his new place on the day of his birthday. The next day I asked him how he was, he told me that he was awoken by a voice telling him happy birthday and that he had bruises on his arms. The place has ghost! I was skeptical, I told him that his brain was a very powerful tool and he might have subjected himself to this. What about the bruises?! I'd don't know if my brother was into S&M that period but I had not lived the experience and therefore cannot confirm the existence of ghosts.

A couple of months later I was at my girlfriend's place. We were having a nice dinner and she asked me if I wanted to cuddle near the fireplace. I told her yes, so she went down to the basement and got blankets to lay on the floor. When she was coming back up the stairs I saw her face changed from a smile to fear. I asked her what was wrong. She started sobbing and telling me that someone had pinch her buttocks. Ghost!! I told her that no, there was no such thing as ghosts. I held her in my arms and told her that this was a spasm, an involuntary movement of the muscles. I had a book and had read on it, the next time I would come over I would bring her the book so she could read on it also.
- "Aaaah Chuck, you're so romantic."
Sadly to say that next time never materialized.
- "She passed away?!?"
No! I ditched the bitch. I'm not going to have a crazy lunatic blaming ghosts for everything that goes wrong in her life. Plus, I don't want to tackle the ghost she has in her basement!! Who do you think is going to get up in the middle of the night if she hears a noise in the basement?!? It's certainly not going to be you, is it? So fuck that. Once again I didn't see the ghost and I skedaddle out of there before I did.
To this day I don't know if I believe in ghosts. If my wife ever tells me that they're is a ghost in my daughter's room I will probably move out of the house and divorce her. Avoiding the ghosts and therefore denying their existence. Problem solved

Regarding psychics and people who can foretell the future, why does it always have to be fussy?
I was seeing a show called psychic witness, this show is about cops hiring psychics to solve old cases. But it's always fussy.
If I hire a psychic to find out who killed my hamster I want her to tell me where exactly is the body. I don't want to know that she has this energy source coming out from the forest in the middle of nowhere. I want her to tell me:
-"Chuck, your hamster remains lie at the bottom of Lake Titi Caca in Peru."
Then I would definitely go wow she's good!
As for the Nostradamus personas, it's also always fussy. Don't get me wrong, when I was young I bought a book on Nostradamus and his prophecies. I was amazed on how right he had gotten it and feard for the future. But as I grew old I realize that it wasn't Nostradamus that talked to me and told me all these things but someone who had written the book and interpret his thoughts. Once again I had gotten secondhand information, so I cannot confirm nor deny the events that had taken place. As for the future ones, how do I know that Nostradamus really meant that??
Looked, life has teached me to become a nonbeliever believer. This means that unless I personally lived it I will not believe in it until proven wrong.
