In a Past Life
When I was a young child, I had the same dream every night for years about drowning when a huge wave swept over me and I sank to the bottom. Years later I had a temp job delivering mail one summer during college. I saw this old lady sitting on a front porch waiting for me. When I got up there, she looked at me and said in a foreign accent, “you drowned when Oceania sank beneath the waves.” Freaked me out.
Whoa, talk about a spooky encounter! It’s amazing how dreams and reality can sometimes blur together in unexpected ways. It’s understandable that this person would feel freaked out by the old lady’s words – after all, who wants to be told they drowned in a past life? But on the other hand, it’s also kind of fascinating to think about the mysteries of the universe and what lies beyond our understanding.
