It's so good to see you so busy! <br />We've been busy around here too. Helio took three weeks of vacation from work, so every day was a new adventure. He comes back to work next thursday and I'll go back to writing and studying all the things that I love. I'm super ready to go back to all those things. :) <br /><br />Oh! I'm writing again on the blog that I have in my website. It feels good to write there again. <br /><br />Sister, what are the plants that you have next to the door in the photo?

I want on a visit to the old Fremantle (Western Australian port City on the coast, west of Perth) Museum with my girlfriend of the time. I had started, over the previous couple of years, getting feelings in some places. I think this was also about the time I was using self hypnosis to help me sleep and was exploring the idea of astral travel so I was opening myself up with no understanding of psychic defense. <br /> <br />Anyhoo, we were wandering through the old limestone building when we turned to enter one of the galleries and I stopped dead. Literally could not continue. The hairs all over my body stood, or at least felt like it, on end. Cold shivers and a sense of cold unpleasant warning filled me. Mandy (then partner) had continued in. There were a number of people, I seem to remember moving around the exhibits. All appeared normal. She turned to see where I had gone and saw me frozen in the doorway, which was a large rough cutout of the limestone blocks that had a bleached white paint look. She asked what the matter was. I cannot recall the exact response but I think it was something about not liking the feel of the place.<br /> <br />This feeling passed and I entered. We went over to a small room in one corner which had a definite cell look about it. The plaque on the wall described how this wing on the building was where they housed those considered insane, and the cell was where the worst were locked up. I again experienced shivers and very weird mixtures of emotions that made me leave the room. <br /> <br />Another time, many years later, after I had discovered that I was overly emphatically sensitive and learned more about blocking the input of others emotions, my wife and I (though don't think we were married yet so was between 20 and 30 years ago) were over a work friends house for dinner. It was and old (for Australia) place with beautiful polished hard wood floors and had a very colonial feel about it.<br /> <br />We had partaken of a little happy cabbage, so I accept this could have been a contributor to the vividness of this experience, but I had been aware of 'feelings' when we first arrived. During after dinner conversation the topic of ghosts and life after death quite naturally flowed and my friend said he felt that he was often not alone. He said he had visited a psychic and asked about it. This psychic had advised he had a small child attached to his energy field. I wish I could remember more detail. <br /> <br />I was sitting opposite an open door looking out into a dark hall. While we were talking I kept feeling drawn to look out there. All of a sudden there was a you child's face, as clear as day and solid looking in the air in the middle of the doorway. A girl I think. Memory is cruel, but I remember the shock it gave me and bought tears to my eyes. It was gone immediately I saw it and it / she saw me see her. The others said the proverbial "you look like you've seen a ghost". I was half laughing, half crying at the shock of it.<br /> <br />Anyway. That's the best 2 I have 😁<br />Gavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07202127907626125374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120516239166236492.post-42946325388651871302017-10-21T06:06:39.751-07:002017-10-21T06:06:39.751-07:00I hope the book signing went well!
