For everyone who has had an experience that they can’t explain or want to share.
There’s a little sixth sense in all of us… even if we don’t believe. I’ve been aware of my so called “gift” all my life but I’m here today to let you know that you to may be just a little eccentric and strange things do happen to all of us that we just can’t quite explain. I never understood why they just didn’t include the sixth sense with our other five senses. Maybe they could combine the two and we’ll have a new sense called: touch/feel… you don’t have to touch something to feel it unless it’s an object and just because you feel something without touching it doesn’t make it any less real. I want to share some things I have experienced that I feel are the most common and that people have shared with me.
I think what I miss the most is my night time flights. When I was a child I would sleep and would dream I was flying and actually feel the wind and see the places below… then somewhere in time… that all stopped. I know that many of you have experienced that exact same thing but as you grew older… your night time flights seemed to also just vanish. They were quite real weren’t they? HMMMM……
Then there’s walking into a room after an argument and it’s that sixth sense that tells you that something’s wrong. It’s a feeling you can’t quite describe although some people have been known to explain it as ..” The air was so thick you could cut it with a knife.” Now… you didn’t hear anything, touch anything, see anything, smell anything, taste anything… but you knew. It must’ve been that sixth sense we were just talking about.
Have you ever been sound asleep only to wake up quickly with someone standing ever so quietly beside you…. I did that a lot and usually it was one of my kids. You could actually feel them and you would wake with a jump. That is very similar to the feeling that you are being watched. I’ve got news for you… if you feel you are being watched… then you probably are.
Thinking about a friend you haven’t thought of for a long time and have them call you out of the blue or you call a friend and the first thing they say is… “I was just thinking about you”.
Many new moms have told me that they will wake in the middle of the night only minutes before their baby wakes up. They have this feeling that their baby needs them.
For some reason you can’t explain you change your plans.. a plane trip, your usual route, or while looking for your keys that have mysteriously misplaced themselves..you are 10 minutes late, only to just barely avoid a serious car accident. I’ve listened to many of the people from 911 that for some strange reason… they never made it to work that morning.
Have you looked for something for some time … only to find it in the exact same spot you looked the first time. This is when you start to question your sanity.
My favorite is the feeling we’ve been there and done this before. This is a vision you were given while you were sleeping and although you never remembered it … it stayed neatly tucked away until that very moment. You have actually had a spiritual experience and it sorta freaks you out while you’re in that moment. You get that “deer with the headlights” look on your face… It’s okay.
Some people refer to some of these as a gut feeling because it’s a feeling you get from the center of your being. What ever you want to call it… it’s real.
I bet you have all had at least one of these strange things happen to you… If you’ve had something unexplainable happen to you …. let me know in your comments.
