When I was a child, I used to lucid dream all the time. Also, I used to have out of body experiences. Many of you reading this may think I am nuts or "the devil is trying to trick me": I can assure you that this is not the case. When I was young (around 7 or 8 years old) I remember going places (I thought was dreaming) but when my mom would call me to get up out of bed, I could not. I would try to open my eyes and move my arms and legs but they wouldn't move. I didn't panic but remained calmed and waited for a few minutes (or maybe it was seconds) and then I could open my eyes and physically get out of bed.  During specific times in my life, I've had Déjà vu experiences. I would be at a particular place and had a very strong sensation that I had already been there before. This has happened to be about 5 times so far in my life. I am wondering if anyone else have experiences similar to mine?

 As a child, my mom would take me to church and I would disagree with the minister. I didn't like what he was preaching (hell fire and brimstone) and felt that he wasn't telling the congregation the truth. As a I grew up, I stopped going to church. I was a very spiritual child and as it turns out we all are whether we believe it or not. I used to see things like animals and people but other people could not see them. I had an imaginary friend (unfortunately whom I don't remember now).  I was a gentle loving child who loved animals and nature a lot. I hated to see people argue and fight. Even as a teenager, if I would see people fighting I would not stand and watch. I would walk pass them and the crowd of people watching and continue on towards my destination.  I never liked hurting people feelings so I would lie to them. Truthfully told, I was a nicer and gentler person more so then than I am now. Life has a way of changing a person for the better or for the worse. I am not saying that I am mean, rude or disrespectful because some aspects of a person's personality never leaves them. But as I have grown in years, I now tolerate a lot less from people than I did then. Most people on this planet have the same thought in their heads that if a person is kind then they must be weak. A kind, gentle person will either give in to the abuse or fight back. I choose the latter. I will discuss that further in another blog.  

Back to what I was saying, during my teenage and young adult years I was caught up in "the world". But I realized that I was still open spiritually. I didn't spirits anymore but my intuition among other things were still strong. For years I had been searching for the meaning of life. I hear people say life is what you make it. Some of us don't know what really want out of life. Society says that we should have a good job, nice home, nice car, and money in the bank. You can see a lot of people pushing hard to have that and they are still not happy. There are some of those who feel that they have made it financially and treat others badly because they don't have it. Honestly, are we really suppose to act the way we do? Is this is what life is really about?  I don't know. I do know that there are three guaranteed things that we humans do: breathe air to live, eat and die.
