That's a spooky coincidence. I was once lying in bed looking at a bush. When the sun came up, it was a naked woman.

I was looking out of my trench, on guard. This naked bird walks across the field towards me, jiggling her boobies. She stood there taunting me for an hour. When the sun came up, it was a branch off a shrub.
Ive never trusted women since

When I was one and my brother was two and a half we were staying at my grandparents very old house.
A few hours after being put to bed, they heard a right rukkus coming from our room and us laughing. They rushed upstairs to investigate. There were toys all over the floor but the room was tidy when we were put to bed. My brother said the toys had been flying around the room. Both of us were in cots so couldn't have got out and done it ourselves (I couldn't walk yet for starters
).
Years later and grandparents had moved into an annexe at my parents house. A few weeks after the death of my nan, my brother and mum clearly heard her say "good morning" like she used to as she walked from her annexe into the main house.

Easy. She was dreaming. She'd have thought nothing of it, if her mum had died four weeks later. Simply attaching significance to a coincidence.Originally posted by Money Money Money View PostMy mum was telling me the other day that when her mum was in hospital her sister had woken up one morning and when she looked out of the window she saw her mum and her auntie (who had died years ago) in the garden waving at her. Later on that day she found out that her mum had died that morning.
I never used to believe any of these storys, but was pretty speachless as to come up with an explaination to this one.
I now keep an open mind!
The trouble with having an open mind, is that your brain might leak out.

I tulip you not.Originally posted by foritisme View PostGlad you mentioned that, was worried it only happened to me. I remember one morning after a 48 hour exercise and the bushes were walking towards me.

Originally posted by NotAllThere View PostCouldn't agree more. Our brains are constantly interpreting and editing our perception of reality, including recent events, and editing our own memories.
The phone rings, and our autonomic system responds first - then our brains work out "phone ringing". They then project the feeling of the phone ringing to the time of it ringing. Sometimes, they make a mistake, and project too far back, and we get the feeling of "knowing the phone was going to ring before it actually did".
I must have missed that day, the one when everthing unknown in the world was suddenly explained.
