I saw story, a 14 year old girl died in an accident, her mom didn't know yet, Saw her and deceased father-grandfather in her house, he said don't worry she's with me now!
That would be crazy

And many things connect us to people in past lives.

Regarding the clocks . . . when my father passed away at the nursing home, the clock we bought him stopped at the moment he died. My daughter works in a nursing home facility. I told her what happened with his clock. She said it's not all that uncommon. Unnerving for the first year or two, but after awhile she said one sort of gets used to it.

neat post

My uncle was killed in Vietnam in, I think 1969. My grandmother remembers waking up in the middle of the night to see him standing at the foot of her bed one night, later that week they received word that he had been killed in action.

Do I beleive this stuff happens, absolutely! It would take me pages to tell the freakish stuff thats happened to me since first grade.
What the purpose is I dont know, for me its been more of a curse than gift. I'm left with the feeling I could have made a difference if only I could have received the info earlier. Then there was those times I got the info in advance and did nothing because it was unbelieveable, and that leaves a guilt trip. The reason I dont act on all impules is because I have also all those times of the false reports(for lack of a better word) which are more than the ones that come true. All I can say is if those happenings should continue you control it and not let it control you, easier said than done.

I used to think saved by the bell meant like in boxing if the bell rang before you was counted out, then you were saved by the bell.
But it seems the saying may have come from older times (I think in Europe) where people would have a condition in which that they were in a comma type thing and were buried alive (obviously before embalming become fashionable). So to remedy this they built coffins that would have a string tied to their hand which went above ground to a bell and people passing by would hear the bell, thus the old saying "Saved by the bell"

You are so right Foxpaw as this is not the first situation I have been involved in, only the most recent.

Your story about the bell in the cemetery is also where the term we use all of the time, "Working the graveyard shift" came from. for the first week or so many times they had someone attending the grave during the night, incase there would be no one else around, and the bell rang.

Had a similar event. Out of the blue one afternoon, I had a sudden, very peaceful thought about my neighbor's Grandmother. She had lived next door to my neighbor growing up, but had moved away almost 20 years before, and I had never really thought about her.

The next time I spoke with my neighbor's Mother, she told me that she had passed away a week earlier. I asked when, and it was on the previous Tuesday at the same time I had the feeling. I will never forget that.

Mine started in 2nd grade.

Guess I’m the only one who’s never had something like that happen, unless you count baseball when I was younger. It had to do with homeruns. I just knew when I’d hit one and would send my baby brother to the fence behind whichever outfielder I was going to hit it over. My dad beat my tail after the game the first time I did it, said we don’t disrespect the pitcher or the game like that. My brother and I worked out a signal to let him know when and where to go. I wasn’t a great player or a habitual homerun hitter. I would just know when I stepped in the batters box. I’d call time and step out to run dirt on my hands or something and signal my brother. My mom finally caught on to us, but never told dad, lol. Other than that, that’s as far as premonitions go.

Premonitions, God telling you, spirits visiting etc... are interesting I could go on and on about numerous experiences. I can't remember any off hand where I was "notified" about a death before I was notified but can tell you experiences of post death visitations.

being an only child,and only grandchild,have inherited the family farm thats been ours since the 1890's.had the wife read this cause weird things are goin bump in the night here all the time.we swore for years that if my gramma didn't like what we were having for dinner,she'd refuse to let the gas oven lite.

I had a Grandmother, (different) Grandfather, and Uncle pass away very close to each other in '93 and for my Grandparents the night of their wakes when we came home both times the dog would stare at the ceiling. Then bark at the blinds on the window not being able to see out. We had to let him out to get him to shut up and both times he went in the yard and just looked around like he was watching someone. This didn't happen with my Uncle, but we were not close to him nor was he a religious person. I knew it was them seeing us one more time.

Would to hear about some of those Adam …

I have had an experience. Powerful, clear, real as anything. Only my wife has been told and it is very personal so I won't repeat it here. What I will say is that after that when I hear the above stories I don't second guess or question at all. It doesn't even flash in my mind. I just think "Yep it happens." My frame of mind is "Why would it not happen?" I know there are those that explain it away. Of course those are the ones that have never had something happen. As natural as waking up.
