A week later I was in my kitchen when the same feeling came over me. I told my husband that I felt there was someone lying somewhere outside. Same sensation, same tingling feeling in my arm, same fear shooting through me momentarily. Again he dismissed my intuition, but to humor me, and I guess also because he knew that last time, I was right, he looked around the house. In front of the garage he found a derelict lying in the drive and told him he would have to leave. No one was ever "lying
I began to notice that I also could sense animals in the road ahead, before I saw them. Once I suddenly had the vision of a small animal being flipped through the air and blood spurting from its body. A few seconds later, while I was still wondering why I would see such a thing in my mind, the car directly in front of us hit a ground hog that had run across a field and out onto the road out of nowhere. I watched in horror as its limp body was tossed along the ground just like the animal I had seen in the vision. The whole incident was more than puzzling, it was at the time - frightening. I almost began to have a panic attack as I tried to make sense of what had just happened. Why would I see this thing happen twice? It was like a football replay segment. Out of all the things that happen, why would I see this? It's certainly not something that I had tried to do or even considered before that time. I remember thinking, "ok, if I'm picking up on some sort of energy, why would I pick up on an animal about to be killed?" How does this energy work? How could I pick up on a future event like that? I just remember saying outloud, "I saw that twice!!"
Then it became almost common that I would get this "feeling" that a deer was about to cross the road ahead, or a dog or even a person, Usually I don't know what kind of being is about to appear....but I sense that some living thing is out of place or in danger.
There are many other experiences that I've had. These are just the first that occurred in my twenties. I've tried to study more about these things. I now sometimes see occurrances before they happen. I'm really elated that these days a lot of these sensivity issues are discussed openly. I've been able to try harder to see how all of this works. In the past I was told that dappling in such things or even giving them any creedance was a bit "evil" or dark. I don't feel that way anymore.
I have asked my father and my brothers if they had any kind of psychic experiences. My father had served as a fireman for most of his adult life and helped with some search and rescue situations. He said that many times when they were searching for bodies he had a premonition of where the body would be. He never told anyone, for fear of ridicule, but would simply say something like, "why don't we look over there?" He would amaze himself when his premonition turned out to be right. My brothers too reported various degrees of psychic ability, but they too avoided talking to others, fearing that they might be considered crazy.
