What is a ghost? What is a spirit? Are they benevolent? Ghosts are ethereal energies of people no longer living in the physical vehicles of human beings. Spirits are the energy fields of light that we can see when we learn to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the fast-paced lives we all have created for ourselves. There is a spirit of light within the very being of each and every one of us. There are those that have the gift of second sight and others who have developed the ability to see the light beings we all are within the walls of our physical vehicles. When the body is no longer required or desired we let it go and life continues for us in the spirit energy known as the Soul.
