Title: just an odd coincidence?
Post by: ancient_one on June 17, 2010, 12:18:07
There is a person I knew ages ago and have only kept in touch with irregularly since then. In all cases since we have known each other, I have been the one to reestablish contact after a period of absence.  I had currently not talked to this person in almost four years.  Maybe that is why I chose them for the target person to contact in my OOBE of a couple of days ago.  I was going to write about the OOBE right when it happened, but thinking back on it, standing alone, it was not really a remarkable event. And I am not sure I remembered enough details about it to even make it one I chose to include here.  That was not until what happened two days later.  This person contacted me.

It was not a remarkable OOBE as they go for me.  I swung out and seemed to travel in ever increasing spirals as I went where ever I was going.  I started to think of my target person, someone from the past more than a current thought in my mind. I was not really sure why I thought of them at this particular time.   

After a time of traveling, I found myself flying down towards a sail boat of some sort.  Off to one side I saw my target person standing.  I continued down to them and made some sort of contact.  Thinking back, I am not as sure I recognized them as they appeared to me then, or that I recognized the energy I had associated with them in the past.  But, I knew I had the right person. 

Overall, the contact was brief and I am not able to remember any one detail of it.  That is one reason I was not about to write this one anywhere. What was the point?

Then I heard from them in real life not two days later.  Initially, I did not think of the OOBE I had as possibly being related.  But, this is the first time since we met almost 40 years ago that they have been the one to approach me after a long time of no contact.  Why have they contacted me now?  I am not sure.  I have never discussed my "hobby" with them and I doubt they would understand.  Maybe I am reading more into this than is really there.  It is probably just an odd coincidence.

I'll tell you a quick anecdote about myself...

I used to know this girl in Ohio, we were close friends.  Anyways, we kind of stopped talking for an extended period of time.
So 3 - 4 years went by and I was meditating one day.  I decided I'd try to remote view her to see how she was doing... so I focused intently on the area where she lived and the house and basement where I stayed when I was over there.  I didn't see too much... but I felt like I was "there".

Anyways, the next day or two... and she called to chat.  O_o

I believe in Coincidence, and I don't believe in Coincidence.  LoL
The decision is finally yours.  :)

Using "coincidence" in the same sentence as OOBE usually does not work for me anyway. But I do wonder at times if the perception of this type of thing is correct in that I caused it by my attempt at OOBE. Maybe I just picked up on a vibe that the person was thinking about contacting me, and that caused my experience. Not that my having the OOBE caused the person to contact me.
