Everything Intuition

Has that ever happened to you? Have you ever woken up with a feeling that either something’s not right, or something soon is going to go wrong? It used to happen a lot to me. I would be idly thinking about the week ahead, maybe and, as I got to Thursday, for instance, I’d get this sagging feeling. Almost like a knot in the stomach, or maybe the hint of feeling slightly sick.

After a while, I’d get to where I could just make a mental note that Thursday had something icky in it for me. Usually, I’d forget, but then Thursday came along.

Wham! It would happen. Maybe a huge row, perhaps a big disappointment, maybe being let down by a friend. Whatever it was, it would have a sting to it. And, just as the sting reached its height, I’d suddenly remember my earlier premonition. Then, for some very strange reason, I’d start to feel better.

There’s no logical reason why I should have felt the way I did. The only thing I can think of is that, suddenly knowing why I had had that feeling was a relief. It meant that nothing worse could happen. No death, disfigurement or dismemberment was about to happen. The worst thing that could happen HAD happened! And I was still alive and kicking.

Once I had begun to accept that my premonitions were accurate and that they didn’t mean total disaster, so I began to have them less frequently. And, when I did get them, they were less intense. It’s almost as if, once I’d learned that skill, I didn’t need to use it anymore.

Now it is a rarity for me to get a premonitory twinge. It’s not a bad thing. In fact, I quite like this new development. It means that I’m not lurching from day to day, wondering what’s going to happen in the future. It means that I can live more in the day itself. If something happens which would have been the cause of a nasty feeling, now it’s just something I get through. I know it won’t last. Nothing does.

So why worry about it?
