If you read my earlier post today about where I’ve been, you probably already know I went to visit my best friend over the weekend. I promised to tell you about my paranormal experience while I was there.
My first night there, Friday, was a fun filled day. During the night, I had a run in with my best friend’s mother who passed just over a year ago. I will never forget it.
Firstly, I had one of those out of body experiences I’ve spoken of in the past. Again, I was coughing and looking down upon my coughing, sleeping self. I woke from that state, or returned to by body. I realized the bedroom door was open. I was 100% certain I had closed it. Once my eyes adjusted to the complete darkness, I happened to look up into the next room and saw P floating up close to the ceiling. Her eyes were a bright blue light and very freaky looking. Her body was a dark shadow, but I knew it was her.
I had conscious thought because I told myself that this had to be a dream and clamped my eyes shut. About five seconds later I reopened my eyes to prove to myself I was dreaming and there she was peeking around the corner of the door frame at me.
I clamped my eyes shut again and was very scared at this point. My heart was racing and part of me wanted to scream.
Then I heard her voice telepathically say, “I wonder who is in there?” Followed by a very tender, “Oh, it’s CW!”
With my eyes still clamped tightly shut, I said out loud, “P, I love you, but you are scaring me. Please go away.”
After that, I heard footsteps at the end of the bed. I could feel her watching over me. Despite my initial terror, I told myself that there was no possible way P would hurt me. She loved me in life.
Once again, I spoke to her out loud. “P, I love you. You need to stop visiting and go back to heaven.”
Somehow, I managed to fall back to sleep after a few meditative type breaths. I awoke at 6:00 a.m. to the sound of my friend knocking on the door. The door was closed tightly. P had to have closed it when she left.
You might think that I was having a wild dream, but I truly know it was not. I do have vivid dreams, but I can always tell the difference. I have a certain sensitivity to dreams, emotions, and things spiritual. I can tell the difference if what I experience is in a dream state or not. My mind was definitely alert and interacting with P as crazy as that might sound.
I spoke to her out loud because that is something I learned on the A&E program, Paranormal State. They do paranormal investigations (sort of faith based) and they always say that you can speak to the spirits and be in control of the situation. I am drawn to such programs because of the bit of sensitivity to such things that I have.
There is nothing special in that, other than to say that I can sense emotions people are having. I think it is part of what makes me so empathetic. Perhaps I was sensing P’s curiosity about the coughing woman in the bedroom. So, I saw her and was able to interact. Sometimes I have a sense or “feeling” that something is going to happen. I had this feeling before I left to see my friend that P might visit me. I’ve had that feeling since she passed. It was very strong this time
Saturday night, I said my prayers and asked God to keep P out of my bedroom. I then spoke out load to P again. I said, “P, I love you. Please stay in heaven tonight. I don’t want to be scared tonight.” As far as I know, she stayed away. I slept very lightly and didn’t sense her.
I didn’t tell my friend of this experience. I know that she doesn’t like “ghost stories” and would be skeptical whether or not she’s had a similar experience. Besides, in my heart of hearts, I believe she has. It’s one of things I’ve been sensing.
Thanks for reading this very long post. I hope you don’t think I’m crazy. I am completely positive I was not dreaming.
