Here is a story with amazing variables. My son's great grandfather and his girlfriend's great grandfather started the first medical rescue squad together back in 1930 in Kenosha Wisconsin. The kids met at High school in Portland Oregon. We discovered the connection a few months after they started dating. 80 years, hundreds of miles, crazy odds. It makes me wonder if we're magnetically drawn to people that have the same genetics as our ancestors friends.

haha karlos was that a joke? you actually dreamed about the same exact guy, jacob matthews, as the poster?

anyway i use to live in pondokindah from 1997-1999 in a house which i saw a ghost. my father also saw it, the same exact ghost, a girl about 5 feet tall with long hair. but the weird thing is he saw it at his work which was a place called megamall. she was in his office sitting on the window ledge. i on the other hand saw her go past my corridor around midnight, i went to follow her but no one was there

its called sycronicity ur thinking of somthing and it happens it happens to me alll the time and almost the exact thing happend 2 me last week i was putting it to the test and i thought about an old friend from highschool called jacob mathews that night i dreamt about him and the next day i saw him in town with another old high school chum i hadnt seen in years but had dreamt about the night before and the only reason i thought about all this was because me and my sister had dejavu at the exact same time she decribed it to me and it was also exactly the same like nothing either of us had ever exerienced before so go online and research syncronicity and u will be shocked to learn of the truth

I have an experience on this.
2 years ago, I was in bed with my husband and my daughter ( she always get into our bed in themiddle of the nite ). About 2pm, suddenly I woke up as I felt someone watching us. I looked at the door and saw my Dad. He just stood there watching 3 of us cuddling each other, then He turned around and I heard his steps on the stairs. I got up and followed him down stair. No body was there, I put the lights on, made myself a cup of coffee then went to the living room, put the fire on and sat there for an hour or so. I got so confuse.
the phone rang…..it was my sister. She told me that my Dad passed away at 7am (Jakarta time). its 2pm UK time, the time I saw him in my bedroom.

Anybody can explain this?

My husband was pretty skeptical about the whole supernatural issues but I guess having an Indonesian wife seems to change that perspective a little bit:)
For me, I tend to accept it but won’t dwell into it. Besides, I’m not really psyched of seeing any ghosts (no matter how hot they are)
Speaking of dream, my mom often has dreams which appears to be reality.

I am a skeptic through and through, until I hear about actual research that starts to make the supernatural seem like science. Studies have found that people (hooked up to monitors and brain scan things and whatnot) react physiologically to events (such as sounds and images) before they happen. Also, if you’ve read any of the research in theoretical physics, about M theory, electron “spooky action at a distance,” and parallel universes, it’s difficult to maintain the attitude that everything is clear-cut, black and white, fully explained. The closer you look, the less certainty you find, it seems.

As a muslim, as it was stated in the Holy Al Qur’an, I believe in things belonging to the invisible (divine or supernatural) sphere. So yes, sometimes dream might have some meanings, you just don’t know or don’t understand it until something real happen afterward. Some prophets received the messages through their dreams.

Take care!

Dreamed up phone number gets man a bride

London: A British man has met and married a 22-year-old woman after, by his own account, dreaming of her phone number and then sending her a text message.

David Brown, 24, says he woke up one morning after a night out with friends with a telephone number constantly running through his head. He decided to contact it, sending a message saying, “Did I meet you last night?”

Random recipient Michelle Kitson was confused and wary at first but decided to reply and the two began exchanging messages. Eventually they met and fell in love.

“It was really weird but I was absolutely hooked,” Kitson told the Daily Mail newspaper. “My mum and dad kept saying ‘But he could be an axe murderer’, but I knew there was something special about it.”

After a long courtship, the oddly matched couple – he’s six foot seven inches tall and she’s five foot four – have just returned from their honeymoon in the Indian resort of Goa.

A love-struck Brown said: “I’ve no idea how I ended up with her number in my head – it’s only a few digits different from mine.”

Haha, I just noticed that this posted on Friday your time (it’s still Thursday here in the US), and it is Friday the 13th.

Well, here’s another way of looking at it. Think of all the times you dream of someone and they don’t contact you shortly afterwards. I would guess that the probability of that is extremely high, but not 100%. If it’s not 100%, then it is a possible (though unlikely) event that the person you dreamed of will make contact. That is, a very unlikely (but not impossible) event should occur, but of course, only extremely rarely (if ever). As it did.

What would be weird is if it occurred frequently!

So says the scientist in me… sorry, I couldn’t help myself from commenting on this.

That said, I love your story and would be equally freaked out about it, even as I rationalized through it.

Dah!

Wow, what a coincidence. I built that quarterpipe with my dad, I don’t remember when we/he sold it though. I hope it held together. Yes, I do remember the scorpions, my dad bouyght them in China, they were edible but he didn’t tell us that. So he planted a few next to the baby and pretended to capture them…then eat them!

There are many stories from that time. Maybe YOU are the ghost!

1) I have story of very highly refered and feared tukang santet (sorcerer) that able to meditate and leave spiritually from the body and travels in real world as ghost.
He said that he always terrorizing people’s dream, sending sickness to their homes, even kill them while they sleep in their room. I forgot the name, but he was famous because later on he encounter a priest he hated cuz the priest being annoyance to him. Soon in the night this tukang santet spirits comes out from the body and travel to the preacher’s bed room, and try to kill him. However, later he confessed to me at church that he cannot touch the preacher, and feel as though his hand just bounces off before able to touch the priest, like the priest was covered with liquid shell. He was so astounded and amazed of the priest Power. The tukang santet spririt went home to his body and later on asks the priest of his power and finds God as the reason. This guy repent and now make confessions all across nation’s churches. His name passes my mind.

2) There is also a real life story of my grandfather death.
My grandfather condition is very weak and unable to hear or speak or feel his surrounding. That day my father and mother’s siblings visits him for prayer. The pastor that promises to come never came. Suddenly, a man come to the hospital asking for a failing health man about to die. My father asked him and he said he felt inside while driving past the hospital to come there and look for a ill person to pray for.
My mother and her 3 other siblings relieved to have the pastor, so my dad allow him to lead the prayer. Everyone in the room closed their eyes, all except my uncle Nono, which keep his eyes fixed on the heart monitor. The pastor speaks closely to grandpa’s ear and asks him to follow his words. My uncle notices the heart rate jumps slowly. It raises to the rate where doctor said grandpa be able to listen. Uncle Nono also notices grandpa’s mouth utter words without voice. He was so happy grandpa will made it. But after the prayer, when everybody left the room to thank the pastor. Uncle Nono still in granpa’s room, watching intently to the heart monitor and notices that it start to drop, and within 10 minutes my grandfather dies. My uncle never forgets that moments, he never a believer, he repent and now a devout catholic…

there are many happenings like this i heard in my life.

hope this inform you some more about spiritual things

Brian – I completely know what you mean – isn’t there some link? However, there’s not. Nothing in the news relates us, I haven’t heard from anyone in my hometown in months, we didn’t have many mutual friends and those that were have long since faded into the fog of time.

I haven’t received a reply after the initial affirmation of his identity.

I am wondering if there was a trigger out there that made you both think of each other at the same time, something in the news, something from your hometown, hearing from a third person that you both know, something that linked you both back to a shared experience. That would be my guess, Did he mention what prompted him to contact you?
