Hey Glojer!
I read your post and had to reply. I hope Blue doesn't mind me "poking" my nose in this "connection" but I just had to reply.
I got excited when I started reading your thread Glojer, I KNEW immediately what you were talking about. I have had these "second sight" encounters for over 20 years, at least that is as far back as I began to RECOGNIZE what they were. I was freaked out when I first started getting them, but just the past 6 or so years I've learned to receive them with open arms, or should I say open MIND!
I DO dream in color, very vivid color, almost like the old technicolor in the old movies. Where the greens almost blind you they are so bright. I had a dream about my Mom right before she was dx'd with cancer and I never ever dreamed about my Mom before. The most common "dreams" would be about people I knew or worked with, and they didn't even have to be people I was close to, but I'd have a dream with them in it, and the next day, I would find out that someone in their family had died, or had been dx'd with a severe illness. I never told these people I had dreamt of them once I figured out what my "dreams" actually were. I would tell them after they told me about their family member, that I had a dream about them the previous night.
Oh, I could tell you lots of "encounters" I've had, and not only when I was asleep!
The thing is, since my conditions have worsened these past couple years, and my medications have increased, I haven't had too many "second sight" experiences. I believe it's cuz of all the meds I take that alter my CNS and brain function. It's like the "door" in my mind has closed, not entirely closed shut, but like you just leave your door open a crack or half way, or like it's got a screen over it. The screen is the meds. Which saddens me because I had only just recently these past few years allowed my "second sight" to peak, cuz, I had learned to open the door all the way, and not be afraid of something I used to not understand.
I think when I first got my FM and it progressed so much these past couple years, things inside my brain went haywire, short circuited (sp?) and caused a "power outage". I believe that we all have that sensory perception, it's in our minds, every one has it, it's just that not everyone allows that door to open, so to speak. I don't think I'm any more "special" than anyone who doesn't have "second sight", but I think that just as all our personalities are different, so are our abilities to be able to "open" that door in the part of our minds that are super sensitive to "special energy". The force that is breaking through our mind barriers is an energy, IMO, an energy from those who have passed as well as from those who are still here. We all emit energy, a kind of "electrical auroa". That has been proven. And when people pass over to the other side, their energy still exits, it doesn't just disappear. We all have so much energy, even after we cross over, some of that energy is left behind. And, as their souls (souls are "energy") pass over to the other side and wait to be either absorbed by the "light" or they are greeted by "teachers" who remain with this soul and possibly prepare them for their next "mission" on earth, these souls are not far away. I believe "the other side" is merely a "reach" away. I'm not sure if those souls are able to communicate with us just as an everyday occurance, but I know that if that soul hasn't moved on to another body, it will contact us, touch us, and "lead" us when we need them to. Either like you Glojer, to be a "messenger" or to "see" things that will affect someone we are close to, or not close to. This soul will also be our strength when we are most desparate. This is all just my belief. I do not believe when someone dies that all that energy just diappears. I also believe that we have "second chances". Second chances to live another life and use what we learned in our previous lives to reach our "authentic self". Sort of a "be all you can be"!

I believe that I have lived many lives. You know when you encounter that "de javue"? I also dream a lot about water. I have water in a lot of my dreams, and the water always brings emotions of fear and terror, so I wonder if I didn't lose my life by drowning in the past. I also believe that in each life we are more "at peace". This is a gradual process. That is why we are given "second chances". IMO Our grave markers should say "To Be Continued"!

Finally, when we pass on one day, and our soul has achieved "authenticity", we then remain on "the other side". We become part of a special prism of light, yet still keeping our awareness. But we do not return to another earthly life. This is what I believe.
One thing that comforts me most, is that I believe there is someone from the other side who is "assigned" to us. This "soul" or "energy" stays with us throughout our lives. They are our "non-physical teachers". They are here for us, to guide us, help us see what we believe is not there. These "teachers" are waiting for us when we pass over. They are there to assist us on the other side, either preparing us for eternity or preparing us for the next "life", and since there is no "time" on the other side, it could be hundreds of years before we return to earth, or it could be a few months.
I would like to suggest a book to both of you. It's a beautiful book and for me, it made me look at death and the after life a little differently. Some of the book I totally can concieve, other parts I'm not so much in agreement with. But it's a good book. The book is called: WHAT DREAMS MAY COME by Richard Matheson. You may have already heard of it. There was a movie made from the book. I think it had Robin Williams in it. Also, another great book is called: SEAT OF THE SOUL by Gary Zukav.
The book, The Seat of the Soul literally changed my life. It taught me to look at life in a whole different way. It taught me how to be kind to people, it taught me about Karma. It taught about me about my "authentic self". It took me reading it twice before I totally understood what Zukav was teaching. He's a little over my head, but I just took my time reading it, and I would read over parts I didn't quite "get" until I understood them. I read it over a summer when I went to the beach. That was about 6 years ago. Gary Zukav used to be a regular guest on the Oprah Show. He is a philosopher and a teacher of "souls". He believes that the Earth is meant to teach us, and we are here for the single purpose of allowing the "Earth School" to teach us how to live "authenticly". He's kinda like a "guru"! LOL He lives in the mountains, though he doesn't look like "grizzy Adams!"
Anyway, I know I could share "second sight" experiences with both of you that would fill a book. But here isn't the place for sure, I only hope we don't get in hot water here, for getting off topic.
We are, discussing FM. Which, to me, was the cause of me losing a lot of my "senses". Not just "fibro fog"! LOL Somedays I feel my mind slipping away and I hate that. I absolutely hate what FM has done to my mind, my ability to think, reason, remember, and be in control of my thoughts.
So, does this girl (daughter) of yours blue, have FM? Is she in your support group? Her mother was in your support group? I haven't yet been to a support group. I'm afraid it'll just depress me more. There is one not too far from me, and I have the little clipping from our little local newspaper. I keep it in my date book, but I've never inquired. I don't know if I'm too afraid to commit to something like that, or if, like I said, it'll only depress me. I find myself more and more "homebound" by choice. I feel safe at home. I no longer enjoy getting out in public. I know I need to. I DID find an ex-coworker last week. She works as a nurse at the hospital where I was getting a test done. I hadn't seen her in probably 3 years. I worked with her for about 7 or 8 years. Saw her go through a lot of changes in her life. She's about 10 or more years younger than me, and I just love her to pieces. I had someone find her, and she came down to where I was and she looked great. She showed me recent pics of her son, and pics of her new 11 month old! Big round head! LOL It was good to see her. But I feel like I'm tied to my house. I have no desire to venture past my drive way.
Anyhoo, I enjoyed your post Glojer, and your reply Blue. I just had to share with you. See even FM ends up in the "afterlife"!
Love you,
