Emma's Experience
|
Experience description:
Me and my boyfriend
went to sleep one evening and then next thing I remember I was floating in
spirit and watching myself asleep and my boyfriend next to me. I became a little
confused about it and then realized I wasn't in my body so I attempted to move
my fingers, I watched and my fingers moved. Then I just watched myself sleep but
became a little anxious and wanted to get back into my body. It didn't happen
straight away and I was almost pleading with myself to get back in as I didn't
know why I was out of it or if I was dead. I finally managed to get back in and
as soon as I did I woke and screamed at my boyfriend to put the light on. We
sat there for about 5 minutes but I refused to tell him what was wrong and
eventually we fell back to sleep- I feared it would happen again. Next time I
woke I was woken by my boyfriend who looked startled. I sensed he had an OBE too
but didn't tell him about mine. Eventually after probing he told me exactly what
I had experienced happened to him. After a little further shock I explained
that's what happened to me as well and we both were speechless. We eventually
went back to sleep. He told his Mum who knew a psychic lady who visited and told
us that she thought an epileptic died of an attack in the room previously but
that we had had OBE's.
