Premonitions are sometimes called precognition. Both means “seeing” things happen before they actually do. Nostradamus is one famous person who is known to have “seen” things before actually coming true. He has predicted many events years in advance.

I sometimes feel that I have this “ability” (some call it a curse). I know some people may believe there is some kind of scientific explanation for everything but some things can not be explained at all.

I dropped out of high school when I was 17 years old. My science teacher and I got into an argument about who was able to eat in class and who wasn’t. He told me to get out and go to the office. I knew if I went to the office I would be expelled from school so I quit. I ended up joining a program that was being run by the Louisiana National Guard for kids so they can acquire their GED (general education diploma). This meant I would be away from home for six months.

We had a smoke break area for those that smoke. I didn’t smoke but I still hung out with those that did. One night in November, I was sitting in the smoke break area with a guy talking. He was doing all the talking because I was “zoned” out. When I was able to talk I told him that something was going to happen to my grandmother. I just didn’t know when. The next day we went on a trip to a local national park. When we got back to base I had an emergency phone call. It seems the night before my grandmother had an accident. She fell and hit her head. Was that a coincidence?

A few weeks later, I’m sitting in the same spot as before talking to the same person. This time, I tell the guy that someone at camp was going to get hurt pretty bad.  A few days later two guys get into a fight. There were told not to mingle together. Later that night, I was in the day room. This is an area where we were able to watch tv and use the pay phones to call home. I was playing ping pong at the time. One of the guys that were in the fight earlier was a few seats in front of me watching tv. The other guy walks in and starts punching him. I’m standing there screaming at the top of my lungs. I even started cursing to get the attention of the sergeants.

The MPs (military police) eventually came and took the offending guy away. The other guy ended having to go to the hospital. His nose was broken in three places. He almost lost an eye. One of the cadets who was working with the MPs came over to console me. She later told me that I was crying but I had no expression on my face. I kept repeating “I told you so” over and over again.

I have had other things to happen since then. I don’t know how I am able to know things before they actually happen. Is it because I’m more tuned into nature? I have no clue. I just know I scared myself that day.

To EvilElf,

I completely believe you.  Those things that you have experienced are called premonitions, of course.  I do know this because it use to happen to me but the way I knew things was I use to dream about things the night before it happened.  My personal belief is that I believe that God gives certain people special gifts.  Others are of course entitled to believe whatever it is they chose to believe.

Now to something else that is sort of similar.  I will not name any names but here is how the story goes:  There were six children in a house, the oldest child at that time was around ten years old.  They all lived in the country with their parents.  Because of their ages, their parents thought it to be appropriate for them not to attend their grandfather’s wake.   So their parents, two couples, left them all at home, with the oldest child in charge of course to watch over the younger children.   When the parents went to the wake, it was a clear beautiful warm night.   Anyway, all of the children were playing except for one.   The one child decided to sit in a recliner chair by the front patio glass doors and just watch the other play.   While this child sat their he noticed a tall figure walking up the hill to the home.  The child was astonished and kept a fixed stare on this figure.   After coming out of what seemed to be a trance, the child yelled to the other children to come to the patio glass doors to look at this tall figure that kept walking up the hill to their home.  Once the other children all gathered at the glass patio doors, everyone of them became extremely quiet and watched this tall figure with unbelief.   The tall figure then proceeded to walk, what seemed like to the back of their home, the children turned around and started to play again but before they knew it the tall figure was standing right at the back patio glass doors.  Suddenly you could hear all of the children grasp in horror.   As the children stood there, as if they were cemented in the spots that they stood, they all could not help but to noticed that this tall figure was a man, sort of transparent, and most unbelievably looked just like their grandfather.   This man then knocked on the glass doors.   The strange part about this whole story is that when the parents returned from the wake, the children did not say a word to the parents about what had happened.  Even more strange, the child who saw this tall figure first, did not remember what had happened until he turned sixteen then he told his parents.  It also came that all of the children, once older, started to remember then all of them told the same story and as of this day will still tell the same story exactly how it happened.

@Yvette so who was the man that was walking? What is the grandfather that passed? So many questions. What did the parents have to say about it? I think I would have been scared if I was one of those children.

I know gifted people may claim to see future but why they live average life and not buy expensive cars and mansions , why not live like king if having potential to earn form ones gift. This beyond my imagination, but many precognitive  people who claim be clairvoyants after all proven to be fraudulent individuals who fool people to earn something for their misery of life. Many of that fraudulent individuals come from poverty and by become guru insure good rich life. I say nothing about not believing ghost stories, I just say I did not see any ghost in my life and m,y precognition capability say lunch time soon hehehehe.

From what I was told, this person looked like the grandfather that had passed.  Also when the parents came back home, the children did not say a word about it.  As if it were erased from their minds.  With my belief in God, I know the He is capable of doing anything.  As I have said before, we all have our own beliefs.  Kind of reminds me of a really interesting conversation I had with someone and the question was, at that time, who created the earth, planets and the solar system.  This one person said man.  To me that response was extremely funny because man does not have the capability to create such awe.   And if man did, I surely would like to know how.

As far as others not believing or believing that some can have premonitions.  Again!!!  It is up to God to let us know what He wants us to know and what He does not want us to know.  But then again we have our own beliefs.  I can go on and on with this conversation but it will be pointless to some.  As that old saying goes, “The proof is in the pudding”, look back into history and most of the time people will find many answers to why some things happen to others while some others may not even experience certain things.

I think I have this kind of sense but not too develop. And I cannot foretell things before it happens. But is what happening to me is like this. I would go in one place which is new to me. While I was at that moment then it will come to my mind that as if it was already happened to me before. Many times I experienced this. Then I remember, this had happened to me already in my dreams. The place, the surrounding, the people are the same.

Wait some seconds, is this like story? Because if all parents left house and not being there, just children at home? Am I correct, yes? If only children at home at time of this misfortune and terrifying moment and they all forget when parents return to them in house – who is telling about story? Who told story so others can know it?
This is very interesting thing to write, I agree it is more popular than many other genres in story telling. But, this story line has to develop better conditions because this one too difficult to pass boundaries of logic.
Nothing bad about it, just details.
I will in person avoid to include any God participation in this premonitions or ghost story telling because it is know that that other guy can also participate in creation of dark shadows misleading gullible people – in stories always small children or curious woman.
