Hello, Barry,
ReplyDeleteI hesitated posting on the other site. I realized that I had some kind of gift when I was 6 or 7 years of age. I was a daydreamer and avid reader, even then.
As an adult I have been given messages that are pretty much clairsentient. My grandaunt gave me an opal ring when I was young. I lost it. While minding my little sister one night, I received a message from my grandaunt to go to the basement and lift the first cushion on a sofa that was stored there and I would find my ring.
I did as I was told and there was the ring! I didn't give it a second thought but said ," Thank you, Mamie", and continued my homework.
I get messages frequently and am grateful for this God-given gift.

ReplyDeleteI was ten years old when my grandma passed. I couldn't go to the hospital to see her. So, I never got to say goodbye. My grandma visited me, she patted my head, and whispered, "bye baby girl."
I waa 11 when Robert Kennedy was shot. I felt a pain, woke up and turned on the radio just as the announcer reported that Robert Kennedy had been shot. It made me feel very disoriented.
