    I'll start by saying that I don't believe in God. I'd like to believe, but I simply, and maybe sadly, don't believe whatsoever.

    What I do believe though, is that there is something to this life that remains hidden from us. A sort of dimension that we sometimes feel, but can't see or touch.

    As I walked home last night, I saw a little rabbit at the side of the road and it reminded me of a friend who is not seen for a year or so, and this morning I thought of him again quite randomly and for no apparent reason. This evening my brother rang me saying this same friend had died this morning.

    A couple of years ago, I woke from a horrible dream where I saw my sister as she was when she was a little girl. She was standing with her arms outstretched towards me and she was crying. I was bothered by this and went to see her. I told her about my dream, and she then mentioned that she had an early cancer. (It was treated successfully), but now she has MS, & I have traits of it also but it's not stopping me doing anything u want so it's no big deal.

    Another time I dreamt of John Barnes scoring against Holland in the first couple of minutes and he did, but in my dream, England were in orange and he scores with a header (He actually scored from a free-kick but the commentary was spot on with my dream word for word).

    Believe what you will but I swear these things happened.
    Has anyone else had premonition-like experiences? Some may ask why we can't see lottery results but I can't answer that.

    Quantum mechanics negates the possibility of true premonitions. Your subconscious can however, construct scenarious on reasonable expectations of outcomes.

    Happy days :slight_smile:

    Very nicely said. I've experienced what some might call "premonitions" but always chalked them off to expectations of outcomes, like Radioactive Bi said.

    Not premonition exactly but I do believe in the spiritual aspects of life.. For instance when I fall in love with someone, I feel as if I was destined to be with him.. Though I have been proved wrong too at times

    Well, I once had a dream about a nuclear apocalypse. It hasn't happened yet, but I'm still waiting.

    Apart from that, I always have a deep sense of certainty about what my dad is going to say next. But he's just predictable.
