Where to begin, where to begin.
Due to how much I have recorded for each of the experiences I'm mentioning below, I'm only going to give a couple sentences about each one as a
summary. If you want the full details toss me a PM - some of these were posted on other forums.
1. Feeling Unconditional Love - I was in my younger teens, and had a very odd lucid dream. I met someone who seemed to be a combination of
every person I found attractive, but it wasn't "sexual"; the closest I can even describe it is God's love. Sad part: She gave me her full name, and a
phone number (yep, I wrote a number down on a piece of dream paper, and hid the paper in my dad's dream tool chest - forgot I was in a dream). She
even repeated her name as if she knew I was going to forget it. I woke up crying and repeating her first name. I even checked the toolbox in the
morning as I was sure the paper with the number would still be there.
I learned what it truly means to love someone.
2. Loss of my fear of dying/drowning death - One experience took place really early: I was in a big chamber that overlooked a cliff or steep
mountain side. I leaned out of one of the windows and went back to the door to the chamber, which wouldn't open, turned around and water was coming
into the chamber through the windows. My last thought was "ah, so this is what it's like to die", and I drowned.
*On the side, a couple years later, I went to a rock and mineral show and immediately recognized one of the crystals as being from that experience; I
still have it.
Second experience took place a while later (I posted about it recently in some threads). I'm older, and somewhere out West looking back East. I hear a
little girl call out "comet! comet!" and everyone looks at a huge fireball going toward the East. There was a huge explosion, and a massive heat wave
came through. I was still standing, but it was excruciatingly painful to breathe - I took a last rasping breath, and fell forward. Process of dying
was the easy part - I felt nothing, no pain, no heat, and left my body as easy as taking a shirt off.
Since then, I have not feared death - Doesn't mean I go out and do crazy things, but it has changed my perception.
*On the side...I'm still waiting to see if this will happen, as my dream self was older by a few years (27-29 was a best guess). So if I never go out
west, then it was all a lifelike dream.
3. Proof that sometimes dreams can be psychic/premonitions - I posted about this in it's own thread: I had a former friend from highschool
vanish completely after she was done. No-one knew where she was except herself (not even her mom knew). Years went by and we never heard anything from
her, to the point I even gave up hope. Another year went by, and I had a dream where herself and me were talking excitedly as if we never saw each
other for years. I woke up, finding it odd that I remembered the entire dream (if I remember it, it's because there's something important I'm supposed
to remember). I wrote it down, and checked facebook like I do every morning...Out of nowhere, she came back (even my other friends were surprised).
Her facebook was reactivated around the same time I had the dream.
