FIRST Experience
description:
This is
the first of three strange experiences. I have also had many other experiences
of having my life saved by being pushed or pulled or warned of dangers.
As a young
teenager, I was just lying on my bed staring at a point on the wall. It seemed
to get further and further away. I felt like I was floating in the room. I
wondered what my mother was doing cooking in the other room. I drifted toward a
wall and went through it like Patrick Swayze in the movie Ghost, i.e., I could
see things inside the wall, there was a sort of sucking sound. When I got
through I saw my mother cooking at the stove. She turned and looked up at the
ceiling, me. She ran from the kitchen to my bedroom as I seemed pulled back
through the wall. She again looked up at the ceiling and down toward me as I
reentered my body. She looked worried and told me not to do that again.

Second Experience
This is the second of three
similar experiences. In this one, I had brought my girlfriend home from college
for the Christmas holidays to her parent's home in the mountains. It was
snowing heavily. After dinner, it appeared that I would not be able to get home
due to the heavy snowfall. So, her father said I could stay the night but since
there were only two bedrooms, I would have to sleep on the couch. I asked if
they had a sleeping bag and said I would like to sleep on the floor in front of
the fireplace. The parents and my girlfriend and her sister went to bed. I
unrolled the sleeping bag and as I did so and was crawling in, I soaked in the
beauty of the fireplace and the big white snowflakes floating down outside the
picture window.
I thought
I wish my girlfriend was out here with me. I heard a voice say "why don't you
go and ask her?" I said, "why don't you, they can't see you." As I got more
and more relaxed, I noticed or felt there was a light on in the hallway and some
talking. I disregarded it thinking it was just someone going into the bathroom
or something minor. Then, I heard the father say something, like "I'm not
afraid of him. I am going to tell him to go home. I felt a whoosh of a yellow
light into my head. A few seconds later, the father pretended he was looking
for his boots and grabbed my head. I said that was me. He said to go home. I
said I can't because of the snow. He said to stay out here. I said I would be
right here.
The next
day at breakfast, I got some strange looks from anger or disgust from her
parents, to a look of awe from my girlfriend's little sister.
Later, after
I got my girlfriend's jeep started by rolling it down a hill and popping the
clutch, she said, "how did you do that?" I started to explain what I just did.
But she interrupted and said, "no, I meant last night." I said I thought I knew
what she was talking about, but what did she see? She said I was a yellow
light. I asked if I hurt anyone. She said no, just scared her parents. I
asked what I did. She said, first I went to her parents room and then came to
the door of her room. I asked if her sister saw me too. She said yes, they both
sat up in bed. I asked what happened next. She said, I beckoned her to come
with me with my hand. And then, she said her father got up, and my light went
back down the hall.
