I'm a 29 year old man living in Las Vegas. For the last 19 of those years I've I been seeing orbs and rather than be freaked out I am a little more intrigued than scared. I didn't start seeing orbs until the death of my Grandmother, followed by my Aunt.
When I was 16 or 17 our family dog died and I felt it. I can't explain how I felt it but I did. It was a little after two in the morning and as I started off to bed I felt a chill come over my body but from the inside if that makes any sense. I immediately thought of our dog that was in the animal hospital and I just knew he was gone.
Then about 2 years later an old friend was on my mind who lived across the street from me. I was for some strange reason thinking about her and tried to find her number since she moved out of her mother's place by then.
One night I found her address and wrote a letter intending to mail it, when yet again I got this chill over my body that started from the inside. I never mailed the letter because I thought that the moment the chill hit me I knew she was also gone. This was in 97.
In January 2000 I had a dream about me and my brother walking toward her mother's house just down the street to meet my friend. In the dream my brother got there first and as I walked up toward the front door she let him in, but when she saw me she seemed angry and closed the door on my face. She then was kidding and opened the door again and gave me a hug. I told her that I was sorry in the dream and how happy I was to see her, but I said it without words but instead with thoughts. She said to me in the same manner that it was okay and she knows and she's happy, not to worry anymore. She was Angelic, with light that seemed to radiate from her beautiful hair.
That morning after the dream, or should I say night, I was looking through the phonebook and came across her mother's number. I showed my brother and he instantly called. Her mother told my brother that she had passed away in '97 and it was about the same time of year that it happened so it's a little hard to talk about.
I also see things or the possibility of things happening. For instance, when I'm watching my niece and nephew playing around, I see one of them getting hurt and of course I intervene to make sure nothing happens. But it not only happens with them. I also see it with the neighborhood kids that are friends with my niece and nephew.
One thing I found to be strange is that these things happened to me regularly but when I started smoking 4 years ago it hasn't been so frequent. I have also had dreams ever since I was a little kid about seeing the devil, and playing a game of chess with the devil for my soul. In the latter dream I have a girl with me and I sit down and begin the game but am overcome with fear and run away, leaving her behind and hearing the devil laugh. Needless to say, I have always thought up some kind of explanation for these strange things but I have no idea if these occurrences mean anything.
I need to see a psychiatrist or if there is a more satisfying explanation, please provide.
