I'm really new to all of this, but I stumbled upon this site in my research. Here are some of my experiences.
Well, ever since I was a little kid, I've always had a tendency to be different. I can get along with just about everyone, but I'm only close to about 2 or 3. I am extremely fond of animals and nature, and find that to be my most sacred place.
Specifics- Just a few weeks ago, I dreamed that I got into a huge fight before my best friend. I didn't think anything of it, until a few days later, I had a dream similar to the first. Two days after that, I got into a fight with my friend, and she said many of the same phrases that she did in my dreams. Coincidence? I don't know. I've had countless accounts of deja vu that I realize have come from my dreams.
Another thing that happens to me constantly. I'll see someone I know and go over and ask them if they're ok, they'll tell me yes, but I know there's something wrong, and after talking with them for a few minutes they will end the conversation by saying something like "you're the only person who noticed" or "How did you know what was wrong?" the most recent case of this was with my mom this evening. My mom is a VERY spiritual person, so we pray every night. I used to just pray kind of a routine prayer "thank you for this day, bless my family, etc." but tonight, I felt an extreme need to pray about my moms focus in her office, and using her time well. After I finished my mom went on and on about how she'd been slacking off lately and that my prayer was just the kind of motivation she needed to hear.
Another thing, all my life, I have never had any artistic talent, but over the past few months, I've constantly had the urge to draw, mainly nature, but also eyes. I can't draw a person's face, but I am constantly drawing eyes. In class, every free moment I have, I find myself drawing eyes, even if I never intended to, which brings me to my next thing.
Whenever I close my eyes, I always seem to see faces and eyes watching me, also a lot In nature, I can see faces, not just something in the shape of a face, I mean eyes, nose, mouth, detailed things, and whenever I look at the sky, I see black dots moving away from my eyes, we thought it was a vision problem until I got my eyes checked: I have 20/10 vision, and show no signs of any other optical problems.
This could honestly be a coincidence, I could be crazy, but something about it feels like more than just coincidence...
