We can all benifit you share your story and we get to laugh .
I'll tell you about something that happened to me and a workmate called Seamus in Iran.
We were sent out do some work at a large Gas facility that had been completed the previous year as we were working on another one at a place called Pazanan.
This facility was on a high plateau with a precarious "road" with horrifying drops and no crash barriers whatsoever.
We went up, did the work and were driving VERY carefully and slowly down this rubble-strewn track in an ancient 1965 Landrover when a wheel went bouncing down the track, overtaking us before it launched into space a dropped about 350 feet into the void - it was our nearside rear wheel.
The rear end of the Landrover dropped and for all intents and purposes we have no brakes from then-on.
Our only method of slowing our decent on this winding track was to drive the landrover so that it ground against the bank and - hopefully - slowed our decent.
After about 100 yards the right-hand side of the landrover hand been ripped off by the rock wall so we had to steer INTO this to try to decrease our decent but we were not having much luck at all and had decided to jump for it and hope that we could grab something - anything - to stop ourselves going over the cliff.
Just as the landrover careened off the rock for the last time and headed for the edge with us still in it there was an ominous grinding - and it stopped.
Seamus and I jumped out as quickly as possible just as there was a loud twang and the landrover shot off and over the cliff - with my tape of Pink Floyd's Ummagumma still playing in the cassette player still strapped to the dash.
Sometime in the past we had somehow picked up a piece of steel hawser on the back axle without being aware of it.
This had caught around a tiny shrub just as we lost control of the landrover but held held just long enough to give us time to get clear.
Seamus and I lay there in the dust, recovering but for some time we both thought we were the luckiest people in the world.
We had to thumb it back to camp and, when we arrived, Seamus was told that he was a father for the first time.
His son was born exactly at the time we both nearly died on a mountain in Iran.
Whether you wish to believe that or not is entirely up to you - it happened. stevmk2

Re: A Miracle ...
Here goes then...At Christmas i decided to buy a new Christmas Tree, and when it arrived i put it up and dressed it with baubles and tree lights. I thought i'll turn them on and take a picture. So i did, and later on i uploaded it with some other's i'd taken earlier. When i was going through them i noticed the Tree picture and said what's that?? When i zoomed in closely they was a Spiritual Orb, and i got a bit scared and thought it could be Mum coming back to say " Hello your tree looks nice ". I went on to Google Images and looked up Spiritual Orbs and they looked just the same as mine. And it said that they only appear on Camera Photo's... Spooky or what!

Re: A Miracle ...
The first and most compelling incident happened several weeks after my love’s passing. It was late evening, early night I was laying in bed eyes closed but not yet sleeping when a voice said “Shift up six its cold out here.” Without thinking I shifted up and felt the edge of the bed lower. I lay there with my eyes still closed and then I opened my eyes and the incident ceased. I often what would have happened had I kept my eye closed. I must explain the expression used was completely my love's way of speaking and the words used were words she would have used.The second incident concerned the microwave or rather the instruction booklet that came with it. The kitchen was mainly my domain but I never used the microwave except for reheating the occasional forgotten cup of cold coffee or tea. Some six months after I became a widower I needed to use the microwave but couldn’t work out what programme I needed or how to set it. I have very many cook books, some on a bookshelf in the kitchen, some between two book-ends on a kitchen worktop and some between two book-ends on top of the upright freezer. I could not find the instruction book anywhere in spite of pulling all the books out from their various places and searching through them. I gave up but more than week later whilst I was in the main room there was a crash from the kitchen as one of the book-ends slipped and all the books fell to the floor and right on the very top was the missing instruction book.
There have been many more smaller incidents for instance when I have been wondering what to cook there was an intense smell of celery when there was no celery in my home, central heating coming on at odd times way outside the times set and so on.
Enough to make me wonder whether there are attempt to communicate or whether I am just being fanciful.

Re: A Miracle ...
It's not a miracle , but something I can't explain , when my older brother was murdered , the police knock on my door at 4am to tell me the news , don't know why but large part of me thought no, they made a mistake it's somebody else , even when I went to the morgue to identify the body , I still thought it's not true , I had this feeling for months , till one day I was half a sleep on the sofa , I heard the door open and foot steps Walking towards me , then I heard the words , I have gone , don't worry we be together again one day , and he kissed me on the cheek, with that I kind of woke up , and my cheek was red hot were he kissed me , but from that time I accepted that my brother was gone , and carried on living a normal life again , I don't know if it was a dream or it was real , but it felt so real at the time

Markey your story sent a little shiver up my spine, I hope that was indeed your brother and you are together again one day.
