What’s a True Myth ghost?

(Bite-Sized version: scroll down)

(Go check out our pinned post if you don’t know what a True Myth is!!)

Basically, it means someone who died in a “past life” and is currently now in a new body. (Essentially, I possessed this body lol)

Living as a ghost can range from being pretty chill to OH MY GOD PARANORMAL ACTIVITY EVERYWHERE!! Being a ghost is different for every ghost because everyone’s soul is unique in their own way. It just depends on your situation. You can live a perfectly normal life as a ghost or live a OH MY GOD THERES SO MUCH life as a ghost. It just depends.

Ghosts are the literal souls of people who’s bodies have died before, so you’re basically the embodiment of a soul.

Real world ghosts tend to either have a body they take and posses, usually when the child is too young to even really HAVE a soul, or are free roaming without a body. Either way, you see ghosts all the time. It’s pretty much your choice wether or not you have a body. (Though if you’re reading this as a ghost, you mostly likely have a body so please do not leave your body for too long you will NOT get it back)

My Personal Experience as a Ghost

I personally chose to have a body, and that meant I underwent a period of time I call “body shock”. It basically means you completely forget your past life until you remember it. That’s why a lot of bodied ghosts usually have a completely different personality, experiences, and opinions from their past life. Soul ≠ Current traits and experiences. A lot of people tend to have that misconception.

So basically, I was poisoned to death a couple hundred years ago. Whoopsies.

I would say this has affected my life semi-significantly. Sometimes I go out of my body. Sometimes I mix my memories up. Sometimes people get freaked out because I give them some random paranormal experience I didn’t mean to.

How Do I Become a Ghost?

Well, first of all, you don’t want to be a ghost. It’s not that it’s bad, but, like, live your current life dude. I do not promote trying to “become a ghost” in your own will, because it won’t work. The reasons in which you become a ghost after body death can vary and range, for me personally, I still don’t know, as my body shock is wearing off. I was poisoned, however. I know that. I don’t think I’m vengeful.

“IM A GHOST AND MY EXPERIENCE IS DIFFERENT”

Of course it is lol your soul is different from mine and therefore we have different experiences./lh

Not everyone will know they’re a ghost.

Not everyone will have an effect on their life for behind a ghost.

Not everyone will be unaffected.

It’s different for every ghost.

Neil Gaiman’s story is the story of many in our disenchanted, disappointed era. In order to address them, we must learn, like Lewis, to speak to the imagination with a word that provokes longing and joy. “A story is a good way of gettin’ someone on your side,” the African deity Anansi (“Mr. Nancy”) says in American Gods. That’s not necessarily true. But a story is a good way to be heard, to speak to the psyche and the conscience, to subliminal hopes and fears. That’s why Lewis resonated with Gaiman—and with me. In the Narnia tales, Lewis had nothing to sell. He simply had a story that was itself embedded in a Story he had the confidence to believe was true. In an era when many suspect that religion—and the Christian religion in particular—is just a vehicle for political or economic power (and when many have, sadly, been given many reasons to think so), this sort of conscience-to-conscience truth-telling is necessary. That’s why the “hidden dragons” had to be sneaked past. In the Christianized West, the gospel story has too often been presented as a means to an end—to moral behavior or to patriotism or to a place among the “normal people” of the culture. That is a Screwtape religion, not a Narnian one. When the gospel message is heard in unexpected places, in unexpected ways, one can hear something that is far from “normal,” far from a means to some earthly end. Gaiman may have resented Lewis’s “hidden agenda” when he discovered it; many do. But how liberating it is to find out that Lewis’s hidden agenda is actually the agenda—there is no agenda behind it. Lewis had found Joy, had found Aslan’s country, and simply said to the reader, “Come and see.” The old gods disappoint, and the new ones do, too. But there’s another Story yet. The work of Neil Gaiman is one more reminder that however transcendence-averse modern cerebra might be, the message has not reached the modern imagination. Even in the sterilized secularity of the West, there are yet signposts in a strange land. There are yet intimations of interest in something, or someone, just out of reach, even when those intimations are safely hidden away in science fiction or fantasy. Christians should take note. Perhaps the way to speak to a transcendence-starved West might include not only a cathedral liturgy or a revival tent, but also, even still, a lion, a witch, and a doorway, just where one least expects it, to Narnia.
