I Just Know Things

I have had many odd experiences in my life and have never considered myself psychic. Most of my experiences freaked me out, and it even freaks me out a little just to write or tell someone about it. I have always just explained it to myself, and the few people I have discussed it with, that I am more in tune with people. Or I am more intuitive than other people.

There is one person especially that I have a very strong "connection" to. My Father. The connection is so strong that it actually started to bother him at one point. My parents are divorced and my sister and I lived with our mother and our stepfather growing up. Our dad lived in the same city and we still had regular contact and visitation with him. When I was a teenager I would pick up the phone to call my dad and he was already on the other end of the line, and the phone hadn't even rung. He would be surprised because he had just picked up the phone and dialed my number and the phone hadn't even rung and I had picked it up to call him as well. This happened several times in reverse as well. This actually happened pretty regularly like 2 or 3 times a week. Or I would call him and he was just about to pick up the phone to call me, or the same in reverse. I always seem to know what he is thinking and can say it first word for word.

Now that I am married I live about 3000 miles away from him. When I was pregnant and had just gone into labor with my first child he called me out of the blue, in the middle of the day, from work! That is very odd because at that time I only talked to him a couple of times a week and only in the evenings or weekends because he worked during the day. I was still in the early stages of labor and at home. When I asked him why he called, he told me that he had not been able to stop thinking about me for the last few hours and felt strongly that he should call me. I had gone into labor on the way home from my weekly doctors appointment when my husband had stopped at a hardware store for supplies a few hours before. When I told him that I was in labor, he got a little freaked out but stayed on the phone and talked to me and timed contractions until I couldn't talk anymore for obvious reasons. It is now ten years later and we still have a very strong connection. I still live 3000 miles away but we talk on the phone four or five times a week. I have only had this kind of connection with one other person, an old boyfriend of mine.

I have had hundreds of other experiences, but in this story I want to just talk about my connection with my dad. Over the last year or so I have had a very strong feeling that my dad is not going to die a natural death of old age. I feel very strongly that he is going to die in a car accident in the city where he lives. I don't necessarily think that it will be soon, just that it will be in that way, and that it will be "too soon". He's fairly young still, he's just turned 50 this year, but I don't think it will be really soon.

A little background about me is that I tend to "just know things". I almost always know when someone is pregnant, sometimes even if they don't know, or if I hardly know them at all! At a very young age (9 or 10) I could tell when I met someone if they would marry or end up with someone else that I knew. Sometimes before they met each other, or after I had met someone that a family member or friend had dated a couple of times, or just once! I seem to know if someone is going to die soon, I just all of a sudden get a thought in my mind. I know if someone is in true danger, I know who is on the phone when it starts to ring. Sometimes I even know what they are calling about, especially if it is something especially good or bad, not usually if it is something mundane or ordinary.

I randomly start to hum a tune or sing a song and who ever I am close to says "I was just thinking about that song!" or "I was just singing that song in my head" I usually "know" what the next song will be on the radio before it starts to play. I have had a lot of jobs where I took the personal information of the caller over the phone for one reason or another, and I usually know what their first name is before they tell me, or the numbers to their phone number, address or birth date. I used to answer calls for Organ donation, hospitals would call to report deaths of patients so that their organs could be donated to various recipients. I usually "knew" more information about those calls than any of the other types of calls I would get. It is all very freaky, and I have other stories that are way more serious than these things I have shared.

I just wish that I knew a way I could develop this more. Does anyone have any suggestions? I also am worried about that feeling about my dad. I am hoping someone could tell me if I am just being paranoid, or if I am probably right in what my instincts tell me. Any help, from anyone at all would be great. I am really new at this and this seems to be the best web site I have found so far that may have some answers for me. I am looking for anyone that might be able to pin point or explain technically what I should be doing with this kind of thing.

Thank you for reading. I appreciate any help at all.
