Stone Spirit, Killed in Action blog post




November 4, 2023

Within the past few months, I began to realize that I was always in my NDE, before it and forever.
Within the past month, I realized that by addressing my Uncle Neal's spirit, I was in ACTUALITY.
I believe that we have always been connected to Source Energy and have never been without it!



Anthony Chipoletti:

I was born in December, 1938. Some where, some time, during the miasma of memory-less experiences in my World War Two childhood, I became convinced, and still am convinced, that my Uncle Neal has always bonded with me in his gentle, loving spirit.
I have a dear friend who has had many out of body experiences. I tried to assure her that my own memories, which are only clear to me some time about my age of seven, 1945, have never included any OBEs because I have never felt myself to be in a body.
For whatever reason, I can only remember imagining myself as an intangible awareness which observes my body and all physicality from outside of ALL physicality. I am NOT saying that any physicality is NOT real, nor that I do not accept my physicality.
Rather, I am saying that any aspect of physicality needs to be interpreted, like a foreign language, so that I can feel that my own unique spiritual point of view creates the meaning of my life, not a passive acceptance of my egotistical, angry body.

Stone Spirit

by Anthony Chipoletti

Parts of me have turned to stone,

and my only joy is being alone.

Other parts dissolve from me

into the next reality.

Only my spirit truely lives,

where other spirits always give

wholesomeness to who I am.

nothing begins, nothing ends these are concepts of meaning meaning cannot begin nor end all tangibility always exists observation of stone by stone sees the shape of hard things which is more true, me or you

England
28 April 1944 Dear Sir - May I offer you my sympathy for the loss of your son - a member of my company! Due to war-time regulations, I have been unable to write to you before now, but I feel sure you will understand the delay. There are probably many questions concerning the cause of death that you would like to have answered, but again, due to war and its necessary restrictions, I cannot answer all of them. This much I can say, that your son's end came suddenly, unexpectedly and that he suffered no pain whatsoever. He was buried with full military honors, a military cemetery here in England until after the war, at which time you, as next of kin, may apply to have the remains moved to a final resting place in the U.S., if you so desire. Your son had not been in our organization very long - only a week or so after the first of the year was when he joined it - but he was with us long enough for us to know him and like him. He had made a few friends in the neighboring cities and towns and I've had more than one inquiry concerning his absence from their homes, which shows what a fine type of chap he was, because while the British people treat us excellently, they are by nature very reserved. Your son was an excellent soldier. He performed his duties well and had no complaints. Like practically all soldiers overseas, his idea was to get on with the job and get the war over with so that he could go home and he showed it by his performance. I deeply regret my seemingly inability to say or do much, but if I can be of any assistance to you in any manner concerning your late son, within the limits allowed me, please don't fail to call on me. Respectfully yours, Patrick A. Courtney Captain, Q.M.C., U.S.A.
