It is March 21, 2009 three o’clock in the morning and I find myself unable to sleep. I have just had a dream or vision and I feel compelled to right it down. I saw a television screen and an American solder was being escorted across the screen from left to right in handcuffs. He appeared to be either army or marines wearing kaki pants and a t-shirt. He was a young black man with a muscular build looking to be around 21 years old. I remember hearing that he was being held by Hamas, possibly for killing or trying to kill some Hamas official. There were also some flashes about a rescue attempt by the US and that the solder had later been shot by Hamas.
I hope this was just a dream, but what was it really? I thought that perhaps this may be a topic I would also like to discuss on Solar Mass. Maybe I should add a category for things such as premonitions and ESP.
So what did I see? As far as I know, I have been awake all night. So how could it have been a dream? Was it a half-wake dream, a vision or maybe a premonition? To my knowledge, I don’t believe I have ever had what I would categorize as a premonition. I know that the human mind is capable of amazing things. Things such as perception at a higher level then we realize. Have you ever been singing a song to yourself and then somewhere you hear a radio and it is the exact song that you are playing in your head? Perhaps even at the exact same spot in the song. This has happened to me many times in my life. Maybe it’s possible that my mind was actually detecting that song being transmitted through the air and surrounding my body. How many other things is my brain capable or perceiving that I thought could not be seen, heard or felt? It is interesting how this ties into other areas such as paranormal events. Is it possible that some things people think they saw were just perceived at some other level but still just as real? I have been on paranormal investigations with people that claim to be sensitive to spirits and claim they are seeing something that I cannot. I often wondered to myself if they are really seeing something or are they just crazy. Perhaps their mind is just playing tricks on them. There’s an interesting phrase, “mind playing tricks”. How many times have we said this? Is it a trick or just the brain, intermittently working at a higher level than thought possible?
