A long time ago I was told there was a family curse. It was a big joke. But now I believe it. My daughter comes to me everyday something horrible that happened to someone she know. One girl had a seizure drove into a retention pond and drown. Another friend was run over a train. Another friend was run over by a train. That's just with in a year. I have like a million stories like this. We come from a very old Irish family. The crest is a elephant with noses up. I don't know what to do. But like everything was again me and my family. Now it is friends and family dieing or having freak accidents. My other part of life are going pretty good. Does the curse work off of negative energy. We are happy having things planned like parties. It is only my sister me and my niece. That is our family parties. Xmas too just us 4. My mom died and my grandma died. My uncle took the inheritance and went to Arizona. I'm a trouble maker. If something isn't right I will voice my concern. My new years resolution was not to let anyone walk all over me. That goes for family curses as well...

1. Do curses exist?
2. How can I get rid of a curse if they do exist.
I cannot help with the second questions. I think curses exist as much as fairies and little men with pots of gold, and the Easter bunny i.e. I do not believe in curses.
The thing is, if there really was a curse, would it not just focus on you rather than your friends? And if no one had told you about a curse, would you not have said "this is a bad year, with so much misfortune. I hope the friends and families of those that have gone are able to manage" rather than focusing on this curse? What I'm trying to say, is that this is all just a coincidence.
Now, if you still want to believe in curses, and you think there is some unnatural force following you, then I suppose you could get it checked out by a spiritual healer or whatever. But I wouldn't want to tell you that you definitely should, as many of these people *know* they have no "special powers" and they just profit from peoples beliefs.
So in short: Count your blessings. Be thankful for what you have. Help those that need it. Be happy.
